Works great
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked great but does not work with Apple tv. Otherwise it is a great purchase
I would recommend this to a friendTablo
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Runs a little slow. Lot of buttons pushing to get where you want
I would recommend this to a friendGliches constantly
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked good, off and on for 3 weeks. It won't connect now. I've reset, unplugged, factory reset, no VPN, deleted app, reinstalled multiple times and nothing helped, it just blinks blue like it can't connect. I'm sure it will lose all of my recordings too. My wifi is excellent no problems with any other devices. I would not recommend this.

Posted .Sorry you ran into that,
The best option would be to try and reposition your TV antenna, if that fails, you might need a different one.
Great for cordcutters
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is very good I'm 70 miles in-between two cities and it pulls in the channels very well. The streaming stations are a welcome plus I highly recommend this even if you don't record much as i can now watch antenna tv on all my TV's
I would recommend this to a friendDoesn’t work well
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Doesn’t work well. Then you have to ask permission to delete the app.

No happy - Had to return
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to return this item - it would not pickup, much less record the local ABC Network station
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Simply the best
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just what I had been wanting and the no subscription aspect is simply the best.
I would recommend this to a friendstill getting to know the unit
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has been difficult to program correctly. I don't have a very good antenna working yet.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGood idea that falls short
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wanted to like it, but ended up returning. Reception signal is lost compared to going straight to the TV or through a different device. Also the apps are not ready for primetime. The android app messes with your home launcher, and there is no apple TV or Chromecast support. Returned and got an hdhomerun which works great.

DO NOT RECOMMEND
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would not recommend this product. It is almost impossible to set up and then you get kicked out on a regular basis and cannot get it to boot back up.

FREE TV!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to set up, easy to operate. FREE TV never looked this good!!
I would recommend this to a friendTablo Device-thumbs down
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product didn’t work for me/us at all. By the time the Air channels signal went thru the antenna, to the Tablo device, then thru a Roku device and back to the TV, the few channels that were still available were tiling so that the picture couldn’t even be made out. I returned the product for full refund.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendTablo over the air video recorder.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great option for people who want to record over the air station. New TVs don't have TV tuners this the solution to that. Also come with a easy navigated tv guide. Just by the device and their are no other fees.
I would recommend this to a friendDoes the job
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the Tablo so that I could watch NHL games of my local team. I was also quite surprised of the number of local channels that the Tablo was able to pickup. Very happy with the results.
I would recommend this to a friendNot happy
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Tablo cuts back to the schedule screen partway through whatever I'm watching OR taping. Waste of money!

Wow
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stunning tuner reception, better than the TV's. Connected it to the TV and received 8 more channels!
I would recommend this to a friendIts ok
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Slow and when you turn it on takes forever to load
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBAD!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is without a doubt the worst item I've ever bought from Best Buy. Don't waste your money - couldn't make the app on my phone work for set up, then it worked but when I downloaded the app on my smart tv, that didn't work. When I used the app on the Roku, the picture quality was lousy and only worked right sometimes. Save your money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendCut the cable------NOW
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a great deal! To think that it offers free movies and tv and has a TV guide and all for less than one months DirecTV. It is a bargain even if I don't use it regularly.
