    This unit is wonderful. Very quick to setup and use. Better reception than the Dtv box.

    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.

    Review this product before you purchase Tablo TV antenna! After trying to program this to my LG TV and called tech service at Tablo they informed me that it will not work with all manifactures.

      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. TabloTV

    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

    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.

      Sorry you ran into that Steve,

      Buffering is usually due to your network slowing down. Connecting your Tablo to ethernet or troubleshooting your network may resolve the problem.

      If you continue to have problems though, please reach out to Tablo Support. TabloTV

    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.

    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.

    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.

      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. TabloTV

    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.
