I've been reading all the bad reviews for this and they blow my mind. I've had this very unit since May 2006 and I still have this SAME unit today, Oct 2013. The only problem I have with mine is the down button just BARELY quit working 3 months ago....

Ours has just packed up again. One replacement, one reconfigure and now broken completely. Unfortunately now out of guarantee. Will defintitely not buy a Sony one to replace. Didn't buy on Amazon - should have and checked the reviews first!

I bought one of these when it was just about being discontinued. Bought it to use with an old analogue/SCARTless TV and it's been brilliant. Plus Hauppauge even sent me a replacement mini SCART lead when I wanted to use it with my main TV and couldn't...

OK, I use this product for watching netflix on my TV. The quality is pretty good, depends on the DVD or Stream most of the time, but no worse than my non HD Dvd plays on my non HD tv and no worse than the picture on my laptop, taking into account that...

I got this unit for the low speed data port which connects the unit directly to my stand alone tivo. I got it activated and it works just fine.

Two years ago I purchased a Sirius Sporster radio when I signed up with Sirius.  This radio opperated as advertised.  No problems with reception and seldom did it lose connection with the satilite.  AFter a short two years that radio stopped working. ...

Got this machine for it's ariel socket out for our old tv, there aren't many inexpensive ones that have it and don't want a separate RF modulator with yet another plug in the wall and another thing to stop working such is the appalling build quality of...

I bought one of these from a bricks and boards store and (fortunately) bought a replacement extended warranty. My 4th unit since 12/9/01 has just failed entirely. Don't waste your money. Extended warranty or no, I'm ridding myself of this nuisance.

When HD began to break into the TV market, we were forced to buy one of these units with our new HD 1080p CRT TV as the tele didn't have a built in HD tuner. (Remember those days?). Well, that's when the problems began. As soon as we brought this unit...

I have had two of DTV's HD receivers for approximately 10 months. I've had 5 service calls from techs, 2 boxes swapped out and i am currently having problems with both existing boxes. One box drops the sound and the other drops the picture first and...

Would not waste my money of buying a Bush product again, the after sales service is a waste of time and effort as it gets you no where. I'll be buying the cheap ones from now on and replace them when they stuff up which always seems to be just out of...

Purchased this product and most frustrating thing is that recordings just drop off with 5-10mins to go. This is even though I prompted the unit to record 15mins after the finish time. Some shows do not record at all and some shows that I did not record...

This product is ok unless you have a good quality one. It's slower responding and makes unnecessary noise. It is red

Glitchy from the start. The unit was always slow to respond, constantly rebooted right when you wanted to change channel, experienced freezing and pixelation and dropped out easily if there was rain about. The upgrade to get recording features was not...

This was much better than the last non Tivo DTV DVR I tried. I tried the last one for 2 months before I had my TIVO repaired. I recorded last years Superbowl on DT HDDVR and on my old 2002 DTV Tivo HDVR2. I watched the game on the SD HDVR2 Tivo because...

I am on my umpteenth replacement box in the last couple of years and have finally given up with this box. It seems to mis-time the starting of programmes which usually means that I end up with 10 minutes chopped off the end of programmes such as Family...

PVR button on remote won't work at times, yet all the other buttons functions do, when it was working just ∞ minutes before hand, then suddenly not working. F### junk. Unit freezes up. Reboot everything yet to no avail. Never ever buy Grundig!!!!!

I purchased this recorder back in 2011, and yes it records what I wanted it to, and stored on the HDD many hours of old home movies, in the hope of being able to digitise them however dubbing from HDD to a DVD is a pain in the preverbial back talk...

Product came in with no shipping issues. Product worked fine with no issues. I had a few issues with DirecTV trying to set it up, but that had nothing to do with the receiver itself.
