This was an addition to our other sky box. It is well constructed and does its job. Not a great deal more to say

I bought this unit thinking that I could do away with my $5/mo lease fee. It turns out, the lease is for the card that goes in the box, not the box itself. It gets worse... much worse! I have had DirecTV for 4.5 years now, and I have had nothing but...

A powerful and expensive device, this unit is clearly aimed at advanced users, who will find themselves more than satisfied with its incredible range of features. Newcomers to the PVR market would probably be better served with a simpler model.

Even for a relatively inexpensive STB I would expect more. The record button is not labelled on the remote and despite having the unit for 6 months I can still not find a way to push the record button and then enter a duration, eg 2 hrs. I have to...

I also had enormous difficulty understanding and navigating through the manual. In my opinion, it was simply crazy. Then I contacted Kogan Help Desk and within a short time, I was emailed a "short" version of specific instructions. That was brilliant...

A great gadget for viewing and recording Freeview on your Mac. Perfect for those of you who can't go without TV when you're away from home

This is a first class job. It does just as it says on the box. So easy to use and I cannot recommend it enough.

You will be impressed by the picture of this freeview box, it really does make a big difference when watching on a hd tv. The sound is stunning too. I took a star off though as it broke after 2 years, 1st the sound kept switching off then the picture...

Having lost my orginal remote control this is an excellent replacement. I don't care that it's slightly bigger than the original it does exactly what I need it to do!

The GDB9 is easy to use and offers a useful range of features, but it's not exactly pretty – the identical Grundig is a much more stylish proposition

After having the box for over a year it is now developed a major fault. When searching through the channels with the remote control the set-top box will lock up, the only way to recover the system is to remove the power and reset the system.

Having bought two units in Jan'11 initial satisfaction turned to despair when the most often used one failed completely in April'15 and Sagecom could not offer any help or advice . No repair facilities exist. The second unit is now shutting down...

I read the other reviews that said these bags don't work but thought they might still be worth the cheaper price. Nope. Returning them. The bags are difficult to use because the twist cap to open is confusing with multilayers. I wasn't sure exactly...

Tried this with both my apple earbuds and Bose QC15 headphones on both my moto x 2014 and my nexus 7 2013 and it did not work at all with any combination of those four.

By This is an excellent product. I recommend it to anyone contemplating switching from the poor quality of cable to the high quality of DSS.

Greatest system ever invented for man to record TV. Had a little trouble with DirecTV activating the unit, but after a little discussion, they gave in and completed the activation.

The Samsung SIR-TS160 is a combination ATSC OTA HD tuner and DirecTV HDTV set-top box. It retains the DVI/HDCP of the SIR-T165 along with the NTSC tuner, the four selectable scan rates, front-panel buttons, all-metal chassis, and brushed-aluminum front...

Nowhere near the best Freeview receiver around, but affordability certainly helps it make a case
