Don't ever buy any Alba products    Post Date: May 27, 2007

Review:
I would advise anyone not to ever buy any Alba products. I've had this Alba top box for about 6 months, despite the freezing of channels and the limitations of channels it was an ok top box. But this morning i was searching for the channels and it supposingly said that my anntenna was not connected. But it worked for all the other months and noone had touched the antenna. This is a crap top box i am going to go get a full refund tommorrow.

Review:
Ignore the previous message - either he had a faulty box and couldn't be bothered to get it changed, or he had a rubbish aerial and used it in a TV cabinet where it overheated.

I bought the box today from Argos and I have been using it all afternoon. The dinky little box is rock solid, allbeit getting a bit warm, but what electrical device doesn't these days? However, if you make sure that the vents are not covered, the box sould be fine.

Using a decent £20 aerial and proper, sheilded cables - just like it always should have been - I can get alot of channels, sone 50+, even though I am about 20 miles from my transmitter.

The only negative I can think of is that there is no card slot - so no TopUp TV. However, nether the catalogue nor the retail box said it did, so no stars lost there.

All in all, for £30, it is a great buy, and I would easily recommend it.
