Superb buy it replaced our very old Humax no comparison as this model has internet connection which gives hundreds of channel options. Set up simple with basic computer knowledge and the remote easy to master. Overall 100% recommend.

This works ok but I was disappointed that the controller for my Humax freesat recorder also controls this box making it very difficult to separate them.

This unit has replaced a DTR-T2000 which has worked very well for 5+ years. Sadly, I'm a little disappointed with the FVP-5000T. The on-screen functions are very slow (laggy?) and the Android App really needs work as it is practically unusable. Overall, the sound and picture quality from this unit are very good but it's not the polished product that the earlier DTR-T2000 was. I miss the DTR.

A somewhat mixed review: The user interface is prettier than older models, but it is also clunkier in some ways. I think they've tried to minimise the number of buttons on the remote, and gone just a bit too far. Bring back the 'i' button! That said, it does the job, and does it well, just not quite as conveniently as previously. Delivery was good, arrived, if anything a little early. Shame the UI loses points, as otherwise it would have been five stars.

Excellent service, wouldn’t know it was refurbished. Looks new, works like new. Very pleased

Just as good as a brand new one, can't tell the difference but cheaper. Does the job records what I want easy to use, still have a very old refurbished Humax which doesn't have the modern features but for play and pause in spare room is ideal and still working well.

Found a little bit confusing at first but now quite comfortable with it and would recommend it to any one who asked, I think it is a superior box to others I have had
