Would not buy this or any other Goodmans freeview box again. Bought in summer 07, its always had some problems, for example when there's lowish signal and youre on teletext, it makes this loud exploding noise and switches itself off.

But today we were watching the rugby and sparks came out of the vents at the back, and it blew up. We immediately disconneted it and moved it away from the tv. Smoke was coming out of it and it stunk!!!!! it literally smells like a firework but 100 times stronger..
the metal underneath was on fire.
my husband is an electrician so when it cooled down he took the screws off the back and slid the casing off, the circuit board has a hole in the bit that blew up and is now all burnt.
its been about four hours now since it blew up and it still smells really really bad.

i dont recommend this item at all
