Absolutely dreadful. Not fit for purpose. I sent it back for a refund. The faults were: 1. Very unstable. Crashes and reboots frequently. On HD channels this happens about once per minute. Startup screen says 'Welcome to HD', then crashes again. 2....

1 Room DIRECTV System with a DIRECTV Plus DVR (Lease)

This is by far the worst piece of junk made. It worked for about 1 1/2 days and died. I lost the NFL's game of the year! It just freezes up all the time and when it does you lose all recordings that are not saved. Waiting for dumbrectv to send another....

Negatives: Expensive, however you wouldn't know it from the build quality. Clunky navigation menus. At times the unit is non-responsive to remote control input, despite other IR receivers registering the signal. The unit is Unstable. Random reboots and...

DGTEC DG-DABPVR1TB

Had our recorder for 2 months. Trouble recording the program you want, wait for the list to come up to set record, now it won't TURN ON. Sits there with wait flashing. Tried every thing to get past this point.

DGTEC DG-HD3040 HD Set Top Box with HDMI

I agree with the other reviewers. It's so slow to change channels, the program titles are often wrong or from the day before, the program information is usually cut off. Then it scans all the Wollongong channels, which you can't watch. The picture...

Nfusion Solaris FTA Digital Satellite Receiver

Do not buy this, as nFusion's servers have been down since 2009. This means you cannot use it for its intended purpose of watching free satellite television for service providers like Dish Network. It doesn't look like things will ever be working...

SAGEM ITD68 ESPN FREEVIEW DIGITAL TV SET TOP BOX

This item is rubbish easy to setup but then expect it to freeze and switch itself off. This has happened 3 times in 3 days and will be going back to the shop for a refund. Save yourself the hassle and don't bother buying one in the first place.
