“Very pleased with my Humax HDR-1100S Refurbished, absolutely everything was included as new, in fact the user manual, remote and accessories were factory sealed, only the main unit had been repackaged in a plain box.
Bought this Humax Freesat+ box to replace Sky+ HD, a very simple process to just swap out the Sky box and plugin the Humax box, and I was up and running in no time at all.
Great replacement for Sky+ with a lot of similar features, TV Guide, Planner, Showcase, Catch up, etc, plus a phone app as well. Not quite as fast or smooth as a Sky+ HD box and not quite as many features, but it doesn't cost £500 a year subscription either, so it's exceptionally good value for money and a more than capable replacement for Sky+.
It's been around 6 weeks since I've had this and I'm still very pleased with it, it's worked flawlessly so far, and I don't really miss Sky. I would definitely recommend a Humax HDR-1100S and a refurbished unit saved a few quid extra to, and apart from the plain packaging I couldn't tell the difference anyway.
10 out of 10.”
“lasted about an hour & a half then broke down
took an age to contact you, then sent the thing back
Took nearly a month to get a refund.
Very disappointed with the very poor service.”
“So pleased I bought another one. Just plugs in to the leads for the sky box and works really well from the old sky satellite dish. Easy to set up. Initial impression is that it is a good piece of kit and Human are very helpful”
“This machine is not as efficient as our previous one. It frequently stops when playing iplayer and I have to press the play button to restart it. I havery also had to contact Customer Services as the machine kept stopping and displayed a "serious error". They assisted me in resetting the machine.”
“Easy to set up and use. Brilliant quality picture and has all the mod cons for recording etc. Only been using a few weeks but delighted with the price and performance so far..”
