LG LST-5402P

The LST-5402P is a dual HD tuner set top box with a 160GB internal hard drive. It has a few minor problems, including slow on-screen editing and some ...

Twin HD tuner, 160 Gb HDD, good picture quality, HDMI

Dividing recorded segments very slow, no USB

A good option if you want to record HD TV and can live without the minor shortcomings.

Good

Works very well, is very reliable and can have a lot of recorded shows saved on the hard drive. I set up a week worth of recording and watch it back so I never have to watch live TV and the stupid ads!!! It is quiet whilst on and recording. I think it...

Records heaps of TV shows and is awesome to watch TV on play back and skip the ads (yay!).

Can only set to program record one channel, however you can program record and manually press the record button to tape another channel at the same time if you happen to be home to press the button at the time.

Bad

These machines need to be more robust and not so fragile. To pay hundreds of dollars on a machine that only lasts 12 months is not good and therefore I will not be buying LG again.

Very good and easy to use, records 2 programmes which was exactly what we wanted

Started making funny noices when hard drive was getting full. It's now 12 months old and just won't power on.

Terrible

I would not get another one (even if this did'nt happen) due to not being able to pre-set 2 shows at the same time.

When it was working, I found it easy to use.

From just one month after I purchased it it back in 2008, it kept going back to 1 st January. It took a lot of goes to put the correct date back. This was very anoying as I do shift work, which my pre-set shows would'nt tape.I rang LG who kept fobbing...

Bad

Buy something else until LG provide a 3 year warranty like Philips did when their products failed like this LG one does.

Easy to Use

Hard Drive failed less than 2 years after I bought it. Not sure how that costs to fix so for now it is simply an ornament gathering dust.

Excellent

This unit is so much easier to use than the Topfield. In other areas it has attracted adverse comment because it is not possible to set two timer recordings. This has resulted from not understanding the manufacturer's objective. Whilst other...

Excellent picture quality and easy to use.

Once you are aware of the operations and some limitations there are no really adverse comments to be made about this unit or the LST-5403P with the larger HDD. Certainly, the concept of how the twin tuners work, can be a problem for a novice; however,...
