Good Points

Good selection of things, fast order, and delivery. I bought VCR 2 PC unit to get rid of all my VHS tapes onto my PC (great idea if it worked) When I rang to say I had a problem they called me the next working day, gave me a telephone number of the manufacturers.


Bad Points

I found the manufacturers to be unhelpful.
Spoke to them first day seemed very helpful, then rang later that day, to be told they would call me back, but I received no call, when I rang again they had all apparently gone home. Next day I still did not receive a call, so I rang again, another guy said he would call me back, no call.


General Comments

This unit is a great idea, but I would say, its a dream, I thought the instructions were hard to follow, even when I got it set up the VCR was not effective, I thought all my VHS tapes were faulty, until I tried them on my normal VCR and they were perfect. Program kept crashing the PC, you also need a USB 2 which it does not tell you until you get the unit.

Firebox are sending me a replacement to try so will see if its just a faulty unit or they are all the same!

The reviews on Firebox site are no use as they don't post bad reviews, what's the point in that? I would love to know if anyone has had one of these units and had it work OK.
