Cons Menu system is somewhat complicated and takes some getting used to.

Can't see or hear programing when the channel guide is open.

A bit expensive for what it does, but way cheaper than my early VCRs. on August 21, 2011 by BigDog811  | Read full review

Cons OVERPRICED: Originally sold by Dish @ $249.00 now inflated $349.00. Skips & Drops program recordings. Randomly reboots while recording/playing. Out of space message w/ 2 hours 9 min HD remaining, forcing auto reboot dropping all protection flags. on January 20, 2011 by PoorPurr  | Read full review

Cons Small hard drive, won't record to USB drive, no season pass, no "new/repeat" data. on January 19, 2011 by dkreichen1968  | Read full review

Cons Once in awhile timers might get out of whack and cause it to get stuck in a reboot cycle. Fix it by disconnect the antenna and reboot. Then set back to factory defaults which keeps what is recorded but clears the timers and some settings. No biggie. on January 19, 2011 by phonegunner  | Read full review

Cons No time adjustment after guide is uploaded. No record quality options to save space. It looks like there is no auto delete for when you over record, and max out your hard drive. on November 22, 2010 by DOC429  | Read full review

Cons This unit does not have a built in caller id to show you who is calling while you are watching TV. There is not a TV preview while you are looking at the guide. There are no buttons on the main unit to control it from the box. on October 25, 2010 by Ertzman  | Read full review
