    I have had this Tablo for a week and although it does a nice job of gathering local OTA, there are some strange, inexplicable things going on, mostly with recordings. Tech support is virtually non-existent. Use instruction are hunt and peck. I am stuck with it now as I have no other OTA alternative that allows for antenna in a different room than the TV.

    I think that this could be a good product after all of the issues are resolved. I did not realize that the company was still working out a lot if rge issues with this product. It should have been offered for free or at a huge discount until such time or made clear the issues that still need to be resolved.

    It works. But if I had it to do all over again, I would have bought the 2 tuner version. Not worth it.

    I really like the concept of this device and can see the potential, but it just does not work well. The software is glitchy at best, connectivity can be spotty, etc. I think future versions can be promising, but just not there yet.

    Not worth the effort to get it to initially work. And then to get it to start up after installation was a hassle. Maybe it’s just an issue for LG tv’s but the every time I would try to use it I couldn’t find it and would have to search the App Store to see it and open it up. If they really wanted to make this a great product, they should include the ability to record whatever is being played on the screen.

    When I turn off my television for the day and turn it back on the next day, Tablo will not load! If I unplug my TV and plug it back in, then Tablo will load. This was my only way to record shows, so I just deal with the inconvenience, but it's extremely frustrating!

    Tablo has been working great compared to the Amazon unit we had. It's great to record and watch shows at the same time with the 4 tuners. It has some quirky issues but customer support has been helpful.

    This is a great device to be part of your home entertainment. Love it! Plus 50 hours of record time is more then enough. Just as long as you delete when needed. Get a good antenna.
