    Don't buy at Best Buy! You have to get warranty service through Tablo. Much easier to get service if you buy directly from Tablo. When it works it is a nice OTA solution, when it doesn’t, Tablo is there-to argue with you for endless hours before they agree to 'tell their supervisor your concerns'.

    I have been having a hard time getting my Tablo to work, even with tech support, who was difficult to understand because of a heavy accent.

    This device doesn't work for Samsung TVs, which is probably 80% of the TVs that Best Buy sells.

    The device was always buggy and unstable. after owning it a little more than 15 months it died, and Tablo will not replace it as it only has a one year warranty. Find an alternative.

    I have this for nine months. It now won't recognize wi-fi and I can only use it if it's directly plugged into the ethernet. It worked fine until now. Tech Support hasn't done much to help. I won't be getting another one and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

    This new version lost functionality compared to my Tablo quad. No longer have quick guide with down button, and last channel option. I have actually gone back to using the Tablo quad, but will keep this new one in case updated firmware restores functionality.

    Didn't work. Spent an hour plus with technicians on phone. They then spent the evening trying to fix it online. I returned it for a full refund and bought something else. To bad really, because the App was cool and the concept is great.

    The app would not install. I spent a total of over four hours on the phone with tech support and basically all I got was try again. Then when I was told to run installation "slowly" like we have control over that I returned it.
