Not a great replacement for my Panasonic recorder.
When you switch on, it takes a long time to cycle through whatever it's doing before it's ready to use. TV programmes are easily set to record but you can't edit the dross out, i.e. the bits before the start and the adverts etc if you want to keep anything you've recorded.

Easy to set up, so far so good.
Useless
Easy to use and value for money
I purchased this Manhattan T4 R Freeview set up box a month ago to replace my 10 year old Humax. The BBC player, ITV X ,Channel 4 and 5 on the old machine were no longer compatible and not accessible. The replacement Manhattan was easy to set up and link to the internet and TV aerial.The TV guide was easy to use and future recordings were straightforward to record by individual episode or full series. After recording the relevant programmes you are able to scroll through advert breaks.Very pleased with my purchase.

Just what I needed!
I brought this a few weeks ago as a short term replacement for my Virgin box prior to moving home. So far it’s working well, was easy to set up and has all the TV channels (and catch up apps) I need…. It may be staying longer than first intended.

Delighted with this
Had this a week now, and delighted with it. Easy to set up, intuitive to use, and responsive. Bought to replace a Panasonic hdd recorder, that could no longer get major catch up channels. The only negative is that you can sometimes hear the disc noise, as other reviews have pointed out. Still would chose the Manhattan however, as to me seems better in every other way, and am unlikely to fill the 2 TB storage. I was concerned about compatibility with my Panasonic tv, but it connects fine via the hdmi, and cable was included with the Manhattan. Picture and sound quality seems at least as good as the Panasonic.

Very good but not great
Good product but you need a good aerial connection to get the best out of it. Not a bad size so can be put next to our under most TVs. Only had it a week and the only issue is it sometimes freezes for a second every now and then. All in all a good replacement for Sky or Virgin if you don't watch sports.

Upscaling and Recording
I have owned this product for only a few weeks but I am impressed with the upscaling of the picture quality and the recording abilities to search the TV schedule by genres a full week ahead.
