LG HR400

At the time of buying this item I'd also considered some of the more expensive contenders too but decided on the LG due to it's price tag. Having now had the unit for around four months I feel I'm in a position to offer a fair, if somewhat detrimental...

This HDD player + freeview is very easy to use once installed. Programming it to record programmes onto the HDD from freeview can be done just by pressing one button. The picture quality is excellant. We particularly like the easy to view recorded...

If you're looking to save some space under your tv then the HR400 does a good job cramming a lot of technology into one box. Pros - It's possible to watch one channel whilst another is recording (so long as your tv also has inbuilt freeview). - Only...
