Customer Ratings & Reviews

Purchased as didn't want to pay a 2nd cable bill at new cottage. Works great as can beam existing cable services over Internet and play on another tv with the help of an assist like Roku. Also works nicely on IPad if wanting to watch cable line up and not at home

Great sound. Looks great. Included mounting hardware is terrible though. Had to buy my own L brackets to mount perpendicular. Overall very happy though.

I dont come that often to bestbuy because there is not alot can buy for my home. The times that i have come to bestbuy it has al been an enjoyabl pleasure to shop and buy things from your store. I will be coming back in the future to buy a smart tv..

I've been a SlingBox user for over 10 years. I've been enjoying watching my TV in Japan, Europe and many places in the US that isn't home. Great way to stay up on recorded shows and local sports!

Great concept and pretty reliable technology. When ready to change the channel, sometimes my iPhone does not show that i am currently watching, so it has to turn off and back on, which can get annoying. Overall, I would recommend the Slingbox.

Product seems to work flawlessly, I have been able to watch my bedroom tv almost anywhere. So far the only the only drawback has been slow or overloaded networks, such as Starbucks or Coffee Bean. It was very easy to setup, (on line video),

Works relatively well; picture is almost as good as directly viewing cable. Set up somewhat difficult and required two phone calls to tech support

My unit failed the setup process. After a time consuming call with the Sling technical support center. I had to have a replacement unit shipped. It took several days to receive the new unit. There was no real apology or compensation for my time and trouble. The new unit worked perfectly and the original unit has been shipped back to Sling. It is only fair to say that this is the only problem I have ever had with a Slingbox.

Doesn't work well with chromecast. Does ok with roku. I have a lot of pauses & buffering but that's probably due to slow internet speed.

I use device for streaming NFL games and other programs that are blacked out from my cable providers mobile/internet platforms.

The Slingbox passes my home cable to all computers, portable devices and Amazon Fire TV over the internet. Anything you can watch on your cable anywhere you have internet. Super, does all it says it will, well.

It works fine but just a little annoyed that I have to buy a new unit for the new Fire TV instead of using my other unit.

Purchased this in hopes that someone could set it up for me to record and watch NCAA Football games overseas when I travel. I did so despite reservations that Sling no longer provides support, updates, etc. Three competent people worked with me on it (a guy who installs cable for a major cable company, an IT prof for a large office, and a guy who works does audio/visual for a production studio). We couldn't get it to work - the slingbox could not recognize a cable box from Time Warner and multiple calls to Sling's support did not solve the problem. I used to use sling for several years and even used the hopper by dish with good success. Looks like they have fallen off in their support with all the competition. It is a shame because it is a great item for expats and people who travel internationally frequently - probably just to small a market share.

I travel so I can have the same controls on my laptop and phone as if it was my TV in the house. All channels, all features available. Great for catching up on games when the hotel TV channels are limited

This is my third sling box and the least expensive. The first two lasted several years and then started to falter.

Product provides access to my tv while I am traveling. Traveling outside the US and aim still able to watch my programs. The quality of the viewing is limited by the quality of thewifi that is being used.

I travel alot this so is the perfect product. Easy set up and I can program and watch any thing I have on my DVR and also watch live TV from any device. There was no app fees either. The Best

Once set up the slingbox works well. The instructions for setup were poor. Customer service was helpful.

this device was no good it is for Direct tv and not over the air ready.

Good alternative to Multiple Cable boxes. Eliminates the need for multiple cable boxes.
