Bush BUPVR160F1

I've had this Bush BUPVR160F1 digital TV recorder for 6 months now and although at first I was very pleased with it, I have recently had a lot of problems. It now regularly fails to record the programmes I've set it to, fails to play back programmes that are stored on it, or just completely freezes so that nothing on it works and it has to be rebooted. I have never used more than about 1/3 of the memory on the recorder and I am seriously considering chucking it out and buying a different brand - I'm sick of turning on the machine to watch my favourite programme to find it hasn't recorded or won't play back!! My advice: don't touch this machine with a barge pole.

the Bush BUPVR160F1 has a twin tuner, 160GBdisk, series record, adjust recording if programme time of broadcast altered, no freezes, ultra reliable, good quality recordings, cheap, looks good, record 2 programmes an watch/play a previous recording, sensitive tuners cope with low signal levels.remote could be better laid out, epg a bit slow

this is a fantastic ultra reliable pvr

Definately a good piece of AV equipement. Watch one channel whilst recording another, or just record two.

Very easy setup.

Good EPG (layout and selection).

Overall simple to setup and control.

Occasionally needs a hard reboot.
