Manhattan S4-R Satellite TV Recorder | Recordable Set Top Box

Best alternative to skyq

I cancelled sky and replaced it with the S4R. We use it in pretty much the same way. The 1tb model has a hard drive, it’s not noisy. It does take a few seconds to wake up in the morning, at other times it’s quick. Recordings have worked fine. Ideally we would have Netflix etc. apps on the same box. Delivery was slow, we paid for next day, it took over a day to take it to the post office, so not impressed with that. Freesat spares did give me some advice before purchase, so I gave them the sale despite being more expensive, so the delivery issue annoyed me. I have given 5 stars because the product is good and I am pleased with it.

I have now had the S4-R for about a month and I love it mostly, could be faster and we sometimes get judder on itv3+1 which is very strange. However I love the guide layout, it's super clear. Looking forward to further updates to see what improvements they bring

Great product, but foremost brilliant fast service from Freesat Spares, thank you.
