Pros & Cons
Pros
Great for the new smart tvs without tuners, and where the cutting the cable or satellite cords option has been exercised. The front of the tuner has a clock, on/ off *, then a usb port to record or to use to replay live tv. It picks up 28 channels and... Read More
Cons
Big epic fail. Absence of the recall function is a major flaw of this product.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to install, very quick response, and has an external power brick to prevent overheating like the last one i used.
According to him, it’s very easy to install and immediately worked.
Slow turn on with boot process and slow when changing channels.
(those had sturdy metal cabinets and internal power supplies; research online indicated the power supply was their vulnerability.
Price
A lot of function for a pretty small price.
With the money i save not having cable will buy me a new tv and a whole lot more.
Packaging/appearance
It was difficult to decide which model to buy, primarily because most out there seem to be the same, with slightly different packaging.
Only draw back is that you have to be fairly close to box and point directly to it for the remote to work well.
Competitiveness
Very similar to the old homeworx unit.

And so they all have the same problems

I found this one to be clearly different so im glad i went with it
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
This was important to me because multiple reviews indicate that competing models with internal power supplies generate so much heat inside the unit that the unit fails prematurely

I am sure i would receive even more channels clearly if i had a large outdoor antenna
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Every time i watch television i am focused on one program but during commercials i want to switch to something different
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I can do that but it would be so much more helpful to have a single 34last channel34 button to go directly back to my main program rather than needing to type in 671 for example
