Great little box
Bought this a couple of weeks ago, so easy to set up and the TV guide is very easy to use and record from. Pity it doesn't have Netflix or Prime. But still happy with it

Replacement for youview box
Bought this to replace a youview box.Very easy to do initial set up,not all finer turning is covered in the manual though. The picture doesn't appear as sharp as the youview and start up is a little slow even after switching energy saving off. Only had a few days so working on the fine tuning

One payment & then free viewing.
I am 80 years of age & after getting rid of virgin media & going with BT-EE I was having trouble getting my second recorder to work in the conservatory my my wife likes her soaps & I like my sports. My mate told me to get one of the Manhatten tv boxes & he set it up & it is very easy to use.
Bigbeak, 65 or over
All in all very happy with my purchase.
Bought this to replace an older model from a different manufacturer. This one has wifi, although I do use a through -the -mains wired connection, which can be glitchy. I hope the wifi cuts in if and when needed. The box has all the features I need, and the interface using the remote control works well. The apps are quick to respond, and it has Youtube which my (very) old box didn't have.

Hello Derek,
The supplier has advised the following for the Manhattan T4-R 2TB Freeview Play 4K TV Recorder:
Yes, that can be normal depending on your TV settings and the T4-R configuration. Start-up can take around 39-49 seconds in Energy Saver mode, so close to a minute is possible. It’s worth checking your TV’s power mode and the T4-R’s Activation Sync setting, as changing these may reduce the warm-up time.
