Customers Say
The Manhattan T4-R Freeview recorder is praised for easy setup, good picture quality, and user-friendly interface. It replaces older Humax models well but has limited recording to 2 programs simultaneously and some remote control issues.

Happy
Manhattan Recorder
I have used this Freeview Recorder for the past week. It was very easy to set up and use. The record function is easy to use and there are plenty of apps to watch on demand. Overall fairly happy with it, though it does not have the capacity to record 4 channels at once as did my previous Humax box.

Excellent buy to replace old recorder
Bought this to replace Humax FVP-5000t now that it's about to stop being supported by BBC and others. Very pleased so far, it was easy to set up and tune, and it's really easy to use. The Humax had a couple of good features, ability to record 3 programmes at a time, and access to Netflix. The new box will only record 2 programs at once, but has useful work-arounds if this should be a problem, including being able to tell you if one of the clashing recordings might also be shown at another time and you could record it then instead. It's much quicker than the Humax for everything, and the annoying picture freezes we've suffered from for the last few months are a thing of the past. Hooray! As for Netflix, we're able to get it from a ROKU stick, so that's OK. We bought the 2TB version as it wasn't very much more expensive than the smaller hard disks, and as we can't download recordings we will just have to be a little more dis

RUBBISH
CANNOT GIVE A REVIEW ABOUT THIS PRODUCT BECAUSE IT WAS FAULTY STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BOX. ALL IT DID WAS TO LIGHT UP BLUE INDICATING THAT IT HAD POWER. RETURNED IT FOR A REFUND. ARGOS STAFF WERE BRILLIANT.

Easy set up
Bought this to replace my ancient Humax recorder. Much smaller, easy to connect and set up. Remote control very quick to get used to with clear functionality.

Bought as a replacement to my Humax.
I've had a Humax HDR-1800T for many years, but, a failing coax socket on the back meant it's time was up, and I needed a replacement. Manhattan seem to be the market leaders these days, as they were far easier to find online compared to Humax, so went with the T4-R 2TB. PROS. 1. The manhattan looks sleeks and it's menus are easy on the eye. 2. Built in Wi-Fi is handy. 3. Skipping through recordings doesn't cause any sound issues, unlike the Humax. 4. Setup was extremely simple. CONS: 1. The Humax gave me the option of watching recording on other tv's in the house via Wi-Fi, the Manhattan doesn't offer this. 2. The Humax remote is far more user friendly and intuitive than the Manhattan's. I often need to look to see where buttons are. Maybe with time I'll get accustomed. 3. Skipping forward when watching recordings isn't as smooth and easy with the Manhattan for some reason, especially if you want to skip far into a recording. It's very easy to overshoot by a long way, and there is a pause before it starts playing again.

Faulty
Doesn't connect to internet. I assume the item is faulty and I'm trying to get a response from Manhattan technical service. Seems like a good device if it would work.
