Good Points: Easy to use when working.
Bad Points: Not working consistently.
General comments: When it's working it is easy to use i.e. recording etc a doddle. However ours Thomson DTI 6300-16 is only a few months old and has jammed with just the red light on - going on to a forum website helped as I unjammed it using technique that worked for another person. It constantly locks and needs re-booting and now we haven't had an EPG for three days. If we don't sort it out we may be forced to return it - which is a shame as we like the twin tuner facility which allows you to record two programmes at the same time.

Been nothing but dissapointed with this Thomson DTI 6300-16 machine, lock ups, failures and constant resets. Top up TV seems to be the ultimate cause, recent updates have finally killed the machine. I for one will never buy a top up TV type box again, and i would deter anyone else from doing so. contacted top up TV, they seemed aware of the problem but referred us to thomson. the machine is out of warantee period, and will buy something different next time.- Read tellyaddict's review (87 words)

I have purchased two of these Thomson DTI 6300-16 and both have failed after a few months. Thomson do not seem to provide any sort of customer support- Read aellson's review (43 words)

The Thomson DTI 6300-16 constantly freezes, so you have to reset, losing any programmes you were recording.
Noisy - the fan blowing all the time - you can hear it over the tv.
Missed and corrupt recordings,
When fast forwarding and/or rewinding, it has a mind of it's own.
Series link started taping ALL the programmes - not just the link, but also on the +1 hr channels and the repeats (Top Gear on Dave.... say no more!) It then began to record as it should, only to revert back a month or s ...- Read EggyBread's review (165 words)

This is very strange, as just this weekend our Thomson DTI has ceased to work. It flashes orange light then three smaller lights flash then the fan goes into over ride, then it starts all over. Will not switch on! The machine is just 12 months old.- Read Guest's review (46 words)

PLEASE stay clear of the Thomson DTI 6300-16. This heap of junk will seriously make your hair turn grey at a rapid rate!! From the time of purchase a year ago it has caused so my grief as anyone who owns one will tell you (lock ups, failed recordings, ff/rew skipping, jumping back to start, stuck on standby etc etc). Mine has finally died 13 months on along with many other owner's machine losing all recordings in the process. PLEASE BE WARNED, DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER BUYING THIS MACHINE!!!- Read risinmember's review (116 words)

The Thomson DTI 6300-16 is an absolutley terrible piece of equipment. Too many glitches to list. biggest being massive skips when ff/rew, and/or the whole box just freezes up at any moment (on or off) meaning you have to mess around turning it off and resetting it. mine seems to have just permanently frozen, other reviewers on different sites having the same problem.- Read Guest's review (77 words)
