Good Value and Quality
Purchased a box which cost twice as much as the EMtronics box, and had to return it for a refund because it only produced a picture in black and white. When I contacted the supplier, he gave me instructions on how to recored and replay using the USB stick. EMtronocs box is good value and does what it says on the tin.

Very useful recorder
Perfect for recording Freeview programs onto USB dongle or SSD external drive. Easy to set-up and found all the channels. Just download VLC player which is free and you can watch the recorded programs with subtitles, great for the hard of hearing.

Waste of money - Buy a better one.
Bought my Grandad one of these in March 2023 and it has had constant problems. Some channels just not working randomly. You might be watching a suspenseful episode of Deal or No Deal. As you sit on the edge of your seat, about to find out what’s in their box with eager anticipation, boom, the channel just cuts to no signal. An unacceptable disaster indeed.The past few months, it then started completely turning itself off. I suspect due to overheating as the time it would last until switching itself off became shorter and shorter. But seriously, a freeview box overheating? It’s not exactly rendering a real time simulation in the basement of NASA, is it? It shouldn’t over heat.So, like a fool, I bought another one. And this one came with an already broken remote control as you can see in the attached photo. Huge crack in the back of the remote and it did not function when testing it, so that one went straight back. Just got the refund and will be putting it towards a better one, because this one certainly is not worth the cheap price.Do yourself a favour and avoid. You’d have better luck getting something that wasn’t thrown together in a cheap factory in a certain Asian country for quick money. Get something you know will last a few years at least.

Ok as a back up
As an emergency back up free view box, enjoy this little unit for its price. It works. However to use as your main free view box, you will be disappointed. Remote is flimsy and erratic in operation. Scrolling through EPG changes the channels , which is a pain if you are only looking to see what's on. If unit put into standby by remote or its power switch, it will not power back up, needing a mains off and on to kick it back into life. Luckily it boots up quickly.

Poor quality. I don't recommend purchase
The remote control is very fragile so not suitable for families with kids as likely to be broken easily by them. After @ 10 weeks it developed some faultseg. on/off switch on remote stopped working so box had to be switched on/off at plug. After booting up a message appeared about external device which stayed on screen over 10 seconds, during which I couldn't use the remote for anything like switching channel. Thus, after switching on at plug, after it had booted up and external device message disappeared, it was @20seconds before remote control could be used.
