Tablo Tuner not ready for primetime.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Tablo app crashes repeatedly when used with Roku. It will run ok for about 10 minutes, then crash back to Roku, and you have to start over. Seems to run ok on Android app. Your mileage may vary.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendGood OTA DVR
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great DVR. No need to pay for guide data on new Tablo. Roku app a little buggy, but I contacted Tablo and they have assured me they are working on it. You have to use your phone to set it up and you have to make a new Tablo account to use it. Old Tablo account will not work. Overall good product.

misleading advertising
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned the item. Never used it. The consumer needs wifi for this to work even though the box says it works with antenna tv

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Application Not easy to install on Samsung tv. Not good
I would recommend this to a friendDo not buy new gen Tablo.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had Tablo for years. Loved the product. A few months my old Tablo started having problems. Customer service was useless. Took almost 2 months for them to determine mine wasn’t fixable. They suggested I purchase one of their new generation models. They changed their new generation model to require connect to the internet. Although the Unit set within a foot of the router It kept searching for a signal during shows. Also the tuners are not as good as my 2017 tv. Couldn’t Get stations I typically watch on antenna. Talking to support again was useless. Answer was that’s the Way it works. I do not suggest this product.

Don’t bother
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don’t bother. Easy to set up but when it scanned for local channels, none of my local channels (Fox, NBC, CBS or ABC) were found. Went thru the set up multiple times and aimed at different broadcast towers to capture network channels with no luck. Will be returning to get my money back

Posted .Hey! We do list the compatible devices on our website and while at the moment we don’t yet have an app for LG smart TVs you can use a Roku or Firestick to download the Tablo app.
Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looking for something to use to get OTA channels to TV's in my house since we are using the rooms in a non traditional way. We have gotten rid of all wired services but still wanted to get the OTA and Fast channels to all tv's having the DVR is just a bonus!
I would recommend this to a friendFine for casual watchers, terrible for anyone else
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works fine if you just want to plug it in and use it on your tv/roku, but if you want any form of control, this thing is terrible. Claims to support Windows playback but never got it to work. Ultimately returned it and bought an HDHomeRun instead, which is much better for my use case.

Posted .Hello,
Sorry you're running into that.
You may be able to get the channels you're looking for by troubleshooting your antenna placement. If that fails a more powerful antenna may help.
Not record networks CBS or ABC. NBC record limited
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tablo cannot record from ABC or CBS. NBC recording is very limited..Does not live up to Tablo advertisements. Not interested in other channels.

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thought it was great until I had to deal with customer service. They are not willing to correct the issue quickly. Feom guide issues to needing warranty help. Would not recommend now.
