Great value, poor availability, some quality questions    Post Date: Sep 10, 2005

Review:
Freeview box for under £30? With 2 SCARTs and a digital audio out?



Yep. Sainsbury's are doing the Alba STB-2 for £29.99.



What can I say? Picture's good, full range of channels and interactive.



Biggest problem is getting hold of one ... I want 3, but Sainsbury's seem to be having problems getting supply. My two local stores haven't had any in for weeks, but are still expecting them.



There are some questions about build quality though. The first one I had had to be returned because it suddenly couldn't find any channels at all (it was after a thunderstorm, which might have blown something). The current one is very slow to respond to the remote or the on-box buttons.



All in all, I'd recommend it - but buy two just in case one is faulty. Sainsbury's have a good returns policy, so you can always take an unwanted one back.
