I upgraded from an old 2 tuner Tivo Premiere and this is a great update. 6 tuners and the new "experience" (GUI) is pretty good, although missing some features like sorting the guide by channel name and the beloved thumbs up/down is apparently deprecated for some stupid reason. I got this with 2 "minis" and they work amazing for other rooms in the house. The remotes are also a welcome upgrade to the old style. The buttons feel great and it uses both IR and BT. Also the HD space is vastly improved, we have so many shows and suggestions now and only like 15% used! Before we'd be like 85% full by now. MoCA is also pretty incredible... The one I got came with LIFETIME subscriptions (on both minis and Roamio) which is killer (especially for the $250 I paid for it all). Been being bent-over by TiVo for TWO DECADES for $15/mo for what amounts to a stupid TV guide (that you can get for free on Windows Media Center and others)... NO MORE! Now I am free from their shackles! ...might use that $15 to update my Comcast cable channel lineup (again) ;-)Read full review

This TiVO model has several major "bugs" that apparently TiVO never bothered to fix! One is a known major "bug" wherein this model has initial set-up problems that can often cause it to "loop" within set-up and never complete it. TiVO support is totally useless - not only could they not resolve the looping, but they couldn't or wouldn't even tell me how to reset the unit so I could try starting the set-up all over again! It IS a piece of junk. To those of you who do have it working properly, count yourselves as very lucky indeed!

Not only can you watch/record your local TV shows (via antenna), but you can log in to your streaming accounts as well (Netflix, Hulu, etc.). You can enter all your favorite shows, even if they're on streaming, and TiVo adds them to "My Shows." I also love the "SKIP" commercials feature. One button and you're back to the show. Also, if it's a little boring and you want to speed things up, you can go to "Quick View" and it will play 30% faster in regular speaking voices (faster without chipmunk voice). Also, if you have another TiVo device in your home, you can transfer shows from the other device to the Roamio. It can record 4 different channels simultaneously. I love it!

Has been a great machine. Works perfectly just like all Tivos do. So many cool features I wish all my viewing was through the Roamio. Currently use PS Vue with Fire TV and those two together are amazing. The Fire TV is super fast and has Hulu, Netflix, Google, Amazon, etc so I am really only down to two input TiVo and Fire TV. Even sort of gave up Chromecasting to the Fire TV so things are simpler now. Down to just 2 remotes (but with a very sweet sidekick for the Fire TV). Only negative on the Roamio is it doesn't support CEC. They claim it doesn't need to because it more of an always on device. WRONG. Every time I go to use it it is asleep. Hit the TiVo button to wake it up. Put the damn CEC commands in there so it would switch channels and or turn on the TV. Tons of people on the forums agree. I guess the design engineers just blew it on thinking that one through and it probably can't be updated in. It's a small thing but once you have all your gear running CEC, constantly having TIVO disappoint you adds up.Read full review

When we cut expensive cable someone suggested another brand and we totally disliked it. Purchased this Tivo for antennas and we love it. Wish we had this sooner.h
