If You Love TIVO, You will HATE DirecTV R15

Date of Review:  Jan 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you never used Tivo before, you might like this unit. If you have used Tivo, don't switch. You'll regret it and your wife will hate you.
Review: I have had DirecTV Tivo for several years (on a Samsung box we bought from DirectTV) and we loved it. The interface was so easy and intuitive. We decided to buy an R-15 for our den (we wanted the new features like the larger hard drive and caller...

DirecTV is having problems with this receiver

Date of Review:  Nov 24, 2007
Review: I'm watching a show I've recorded and it just STOPS and asks me if I want to delete my recording. No, I'm not done watching my recorded show, thankyouverymuch. DirecTV's technical support says it's a known issue, and because it's a known issue with...

Give it a miss

Date of Review:  Apr 4, 2008
The Bottom Line: Run, run, run
Review: I had a DirecTV with TiVo--which said it could no longer make a phone call and would cease to work. I called DirecTV who sent out a repairman, replaced the TiVo I'd bought with this model, told me that I had to sign a new two-year contract. I found...

STAY AWAY

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2007
Review: If you have ever used any DVR then you will want to stay away from the r15 as they are no good. I have had it a year and I am giving up on it and buying a DTV tivo unit off ebay. From the time I hit a button on the remote until the receiver responds...

Direc's DVR Good or Bad?

Date of Review:  Jul 31, 2006
Review: Well let's start with the fact that this is a Digital Video Record...not a TIVO which is a trademarked device. If you never had a TIVO you will most likely like the little DVR for it's straight forward recording features. You can pick and choose the...

Don't do it!!

Date of Review:  Jul 6, 2007
Review: Unfortunately i've been a directv customer for long enough that I have two awesome TiVo boxes. I was initially psyched when I moved and directv offered me a 100-hour DVR for nothing. Turns out that's all the new DVR was worth. Nothing! Slow to...

DirecTV R15 DVR - terrible! terrible! terrible!

Date of Review:  Oct 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: The DirecTV R15 DVR is the worst electronic equipment I've ever owned period.
Review: Back in January 2006, I finally decided get my first ever DVR and as a DirecTV customer took advantage of the rebate offer to basically get a free R15 unit.

Now, I've never had a DVR before and not biased due to previous experience (i.e...

3 days of hell

Date of Review:  Dec 18, 2006
Review: I've only had the R15 for 3 days and what a piece of junk. Freezes, loses recordings, remote doubles single hits often, needs reset. Today I called Directv and they had me reset everything. That means I lost everything I had recorded. At times the...

What a waste of money

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2008
Review: I have used the worst DVR in history, it used to belong to Comcast, then Directv came out with the R15. It does not work, and they have you reset the box whenever you call for support masking half the problems that exist with this useless thing. I...
