Live TV without the monthly cost!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just started using this. Setup went very well. Works nicely making the "cord cutting" operation complete.

Great option for cord cutting
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. Make sure you get good signal OTA. I was having issue with Roku but looks like they just released patch to address. Fire TV, Chromecast, iOS devices work great. I wish fire tv and Chromecast apps UI was more like iOS because it is hard to check for conflicts on future recordings. iOS app show figure recordings in sequence and you can easily find conflicts if you are recording more then 2 shows. Fast fwd of commercials works great and of the many shows I have recorded I only had one failed recording. Not sure why but I have recorded a bunch of stuff and my wife has also without issue. Again key thing make sure you have good OTA signal testing directly to a TV before you try it. So many complain about it who have poor OTA signal and that is not fault of this device.

Love the 4th Gen
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've wanted to buy something like this for a long time, but the reviews were always spotty. This 4th gen version is great. The tuner is as good as the one on my TV, and the streaming quality is very good. I use this to stream OTA channels to all of my TVs. I'm not as much interested in the DVR capabilities, but that all seems to work OK. One issue I've had is with the Roku app. Many people have complained about this, and have recommended picking up a cheap 'onn' 4K streaming box, which works great. On a final note, I wish the system could be updated to provide OTA tuner functionality when the internet is out.

Don't buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The App doesn't work and the signal kept dropping even though my current antenna is in the best spot and had no issues before hooking it up to this. The idea was cool, but the product lacks in most operational areas.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Tablo TV
Posted .Sorry you ran into that Brian,
Your TV has 1 tuner, but your Tablo has 2. While 2 tuners allow you to watch/record two shows at once, it also splits your television signal. If you're TV set up barely picks up your signal, it may work flawlessly for your TV but have problems with your Tablo. Troubleshooting your TV reception or getting a different antenna should fix the problem.

Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works well for what it is, i was hoping i could use the app to watch away from home, but you have to be on the same network the dvr is on to be able to watch your streams

Cut Cord not with Tablo
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Three plus days trying to get Tablo to work a futile effort. I could confirm my router connected with Tablo but android phone 4g said would not connect so could not use unit. Called tech. Courteous. Suggested turn off VPN. Did not solve issue.Suggested reboot router did not resovle issue. Unlesd one is really tech savvy do not purchase a Tablo. Instead purchased a Aluratek at Bestbuy. Very easy to setup. Intuitive to program...

So simple
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a cool little device. So easy to setup and interface is cool. I was concerned about picture quality but I was surprised to see that it's pretty close to cable. It has a small footprint and can be hung up. Very pleased with my purchase.

God device to record OTA broadcasts
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Enjoying recording OTA broadcast and watching later and fast forwarding through ALL the commercials. Needs bigger internal memory. Added a 2TB hard drive for lots of recording time. Software needs a continue watching feature to make going back to last show that was watching to finish watching.

Needs some fixes
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Expect it will be good one day. As it stands now it crashes a lot and drops back out of the app. Very slow and sluggish as well. It will be a great tool if they get the bugs worked out. Really like it except for all the crashes by the software.

Probably good product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to use for local station recording. After I purchased it I found out I didn't really need it. It appears to be a good product. I just did not need it. Without really using it I have to say the research I did; it appears to be as it was described. I cannot say anything bad about it.
