Reception and ease of use are brilliant.
I can't reliably get information about programmes. However, this may be my fault for siting the box near a microwave.
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
sensative and easily tuned digital receiver
I would like some means of defragmenting the HDD, It can be formatted,but this means losing all recorded programs, even those I would like to keep
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
Clear features (signal strength etc.) ,smart-looking box, good range of features if you need them (I don't). Not as good as a Sony but good value for money.
Occasionally, especially late at night, have to wait for a few seconds for sound to catch up with vision which is annoying. Has frozen three times and have had to switch power off to reset.
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
good image and sound quality
set up is easy but have experienced conflicts with overall control through the handset which results in frequently having to reset it all. This is annoying.
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
Easy to setup, good remote, good picture quality even on 4:3 TV, sensitive tuner, picks up all available channels.. Haven't had to reset it once yet, seems to be reliable.
A bit pricey compared to other Freeview boxes, larger than most
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
Great little box that is worth the extra. Nice size and easy to use. Recomended
