Freeview PVR

[Rat]

I'm looking for a cheap Freeview PVR for my mum, nothing fancy or too techy, simple basic layout

She is still using a VCR bless her

thanks for any links

Humax seems well-recommended for olders? A one-box solution is often better but that may be too much and the ones I've seen just have a Humax built in.

If she is open to a monthly subscription the BT Youview box is easy to use.

I have been watching a few of the YouView boxes on eBay and some finish at a reasonable price

I brought one myself a while back and use it for recording and catchup most days

I do think thats my best bet tbh but just wondered if there was a cheap pvr out there, but I haven't seen one myself lol

Thanks @Him Her

Hi mate maybe get a used Youveiw box off fleabay or a BT vision box.you still get all free view and function fine with 7 day epg and most have 500gb hard drive for the recordings

Years ago, I got my mother-in-law a Humax 9200T - she LOVES it. Been faultless for years. She's a total technophobe, can't use any technology but you should see how she flys around the menus, deleting recordings, scheduling stuff.

Should be able to pick a 2nd hand one up off eBay for next to nowt.
