You'll Talk To It Like It's A Pet

Date of Review:  Jun 30, 2003
The Bottom Line: You have no idea what your missing until you try it. Once you have it, it's hard to watch "normal TV" again.
Review: Overview
Thats right, ever since I got my TiVo I've been talking to it like its a pet-- "Good tivo! good tivo! baaaad tivo, baaaad tivo!"

I bought the 40 hour to "really see if I like it" and also, for another $100, I didn't see...

Stopped working 1 day within trial period

Date of Review:  Sep 29, 2006
Review: When I received my Series 2, the logo (a sticker) fell off immediately after it was removed from the box. I should have taken this as an indication of quality. After hours spent setting the Tivo up and networking with my PC, the audio on the system...

Annoying

Date of Review:  Sep 27, 2007
Review: Tivo has an intuitive interface, but their customer service is getting worse and worse. I don't feel like you get much for your monthly subscription, except for the random tapings of Bassmasters.

Most annoyingly, you can't unsubscribe...

Change Your Life!

Date of Review:  Dec 22, 2002
The Bottom Line: Change the way you watch Television. Watch TV on your terms. Get one
Review: Starting Up:
When you first pull this thing out of the box, it's pretty simple to get hooked up. It comes with a guide that has a ton of different configuration options to choose from depending on weather you want to only watch Tivo all the...

TiVo Basic

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2007
The Bottom Line: Works well, but doesn't have enough memory. Not HD compatible.
Review: The TiVo Series 2 40-hour DVR was the first such device we purchased. And why not? It was a deal we couldn't refuse: the model came free with a few months of pre-paid service. It immediately changed our lives. Now we could easily record programs to...

BEWARE...TIVO doesn't honor rebates !!

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2004
Review: I bought a TIVO series 2 40hr DVR from BEST-BUY in Dec. 2003 and expected to take advantage of their ongoing, often advertised $50
rebate. I submitted the rebate form with the required receipts and UPC barcode in the time-frame required and was...

Best Home Electronic Ever

Date of Review:  Oct 11, 2002
The Bottom Line: You MUST own this machine, if your time is valuable and you don't want to be ruled by when NBC thinks you should watch and you don't like commercials.
Review: This is the best buy I have ever made. I love my Tivo. My wife orginally wanted it and I was cold to the idea but finally gave in. Was I ever surprised. This thing is great. TV will never be the same for me. I can't even watch Live TV anymore...

Cannot live without it now

Date of Review:  Jun 5, 2004
Review: I love my TiVo! I have had TiVo for about 3 months now, and I can't believe I didn't buy it sooner. We very rarely watch TV live anymore--we wait 10-15 minutes to start watching after the show starts so we can fast forward through the commercials...

TiVo wins!

Date of Review:  Nov 6, 2002
The Bottom Line: Hands down, TiVo is the best invention since the internet. If you watch any TV and don't have one, you're missing out on something great! Go TiVo!
Review: Hands down, TiVo is the best invention since the internet.

The Series 2 was my first TiVo, and I've been incredibly happy with it. While it took some coaxing to get myself to shell out the money for it initially, every day use it I'm...

Another "How-Did-I-Live-Without-This" Product

Date of Review:  Aug 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: Get a TiVo now and wonder how you ever lived without it
Review: I was introduced to Tivo by a friend and bought an 80-hour version recently during their price drop. I wish I had acted sooner and at full price -- Tivo completely eliminates the "there's nothing on TV" problem, and almost eliminates my resentment...
