Good Points

1. Easy set-up.
2. TV Guide is quite good to select for record.
3. Direct Guide easy to use.


Bad Points

1. Extremely slow for changing channels.
2. Recorded programs through TV Guide fail to complete, which means you could watch a program and miss the last 5 minutes.
3. Quick record seems to crash the system.
4. It seems to stop working now and again for no apparent reason.


General Comments

On first using the Panasonic TUCTH100 Freeview Box I though it was great, recording two programs and watching a recorded program at the same time. The 7 day TV Guide seemed user friendly with the addition of being able to select a program for recording was very useful.

After a few weeks though I realised I shouldn't have purchased it and can't believe a company like Panasonic would release a product that had so many bugs. The TV Guide isn't so useful for selecting programs to record because about 50% of the time it stops recording before the program has finished, extremely annoying. Changing channels seems to be slowing down or is it my patience drawing thin with the damn thing and finally it crashes when I choose quick record at which point I have to pull the plug which will probably cause damage to the hard disk.
