4.0 out of 5 stars Good, cheap and reliable, 15 Jul 2007
By David Ngo "dittohead_213" (london, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Desperately wanted to get a freeview box, stumbled upon this. unpacked and installed easily enough - although it had no SCART cable.

installation of channels took less than 5mins, and everything is fine!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Does what it says on the box, 21 Nov 2007
By M. West (Up North, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Picked this up a few weeks ago; took a couple of mins to set up and maybe another 5 for it to pick up all of the available channels.

Good value; enough features for what I need (haven't even looked at manual to see what the full feature set is).

The only minor niggle is the remote as I think the layout could've been better. But for the price, I'm not complaining. Definitely recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Cheap and (thus far) reliable, 17 May 2008
This is the third digibox I purchased; the previous two (from Digilogic and one other no-name) failed within weeks of the purchase). This one lasted for a month with no problems - fingers crossed!
