Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Reviewed by: xkahn Posted: Aug 05, 2008 Type: User Review "Great DVR with media center bult in"

TiVo has been making great DVRs for quite some time, and the TiVoHD just makes it better. The UI is clean, easy to understand, responsive, and has a great remote. While other DVRs are starting to catch up (See FiOS's DVR for an example) TiVo keeps

Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Reviewed by: riffjim4069 Posted: Jul 25, 2008 Type: User Review "Slow hardware and clunky interface make a less than good DVR experience"

Really slow hardware and clunky software (not to mention a really poorly designed remote) turned a pretty good DVR, with lots of features, into an Edsel. I would rate this DVR as follows based on hands-on experience: 1. Dish Network ViP622 2. FiOS M

Review from a shopper who was 'On the Fence'
From: Reviewed by: SusanH824 Posted: Jul 28, 2008 Type: User Review "TIVO HDR - Love it!"

I love TIVO, though when it came time to go HD, I reluctantly gave up my Series 2 and went to the DVR offered by Time Warner. Hated it. It was so user unfriendly compared to TIVO. So I bought the TIVO HDR and was fortunate to get in on the lifetim

Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Sep 09, 2008 Type: User Review Great product for great price (with the rebate)

This is my third Tivo unit. After many years of faithful service, my second tivo started to give me trouble. Although both units have 80GB HDs in them, this new one features dual turners so I can record two shows at once. With the rebate that...

Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Posted: Jul 18, 2008 Type: User Review Tivo Customer Service is dreadful!

When Tivo is good, it is very, very good - but when it isn't good, there's nothing you can do about it! Tivo often fails to record my shows; the channel changing doesn't work well (even with the unsightly "tenting" of the sensors that Tivo...

From: Reviewed by: Brian Location: Springfield, VA Posted: May 29, 2008 Type: User Review Beware of sudden TiVo death

Look, TiVo is a good thing, as you can see from these reviews. But I started hearing about a year ago from people whose TiVos suddenly just died, with anything they had saved on it irretrievably lost. I hoped it wouldn't happen to me...but, today,

Review from a shopper who 'Didn't Rate it'
From: Reviewed by: CNET Expert Posted: Oct 21, 2004 Type: Expert Review

Note: TiVo has rereleased its Series2 DVR with a silver and white case in place of the original black. Aside from the cosmetic change, the two units are identical. TiVo is a victim of its own success: people use the word to refer to any digital...

Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Sep 06, 2008 Type: User Review Great DVR! But NOT for the budget-conscious...

From the reviews I have read, TiVo Series 3 HD is the best TV experience. So far, I agree. But be prepared to open your wallet. TiVo box, TiVo subscription, etc. My alternative was Comcast DVR, which most reviewers have panned, so I ruled it out...

Review from a shopper who was 'On the Fence'
From: Posted: Jan 06, 2008 Type: User Review Why pay $8/month when you can pay $23?

Option 1: $8.00/month for a serviceable (although certainly not elegant or sexy) dual-tuner HD DVR from the Cable or Satellite Company. You pay only $8.00/month and the Cable company is on the hook to deliver you a working box. If it doesn't work,...
