worth the money September 1, 2010 Christopher L. Brown (mn) I have used this converter box for 5 weeks and have had no problem with it. I feel its worth the money. It was easy to set up and very simple to use.
It's Easy and It Works............. August 27, 2010 Gift Card (Allen, Tx) I am the least technical guy on earth and I found this thing easy, even fun to set up, I was kind of dreading it's arrival, but for no reason at all I found out today. The reception is even better than what I had with my previous cable carrier. I am enjoying very much not paying 65.00 a month for nothing worth watching. Get one, you won't be sorry.........
WORTH A LOOK August 24, 2010 david hilst (Yankee Hill, CA, US) The APEX units I purchased ( 2 ea. ) lasted almost one year to the day and were constantly requiring new scans and signal dropouts...I read the reviews by others on this brand/model and so far, 4 months, the unit is performing great. I receive almost 100% signal quality on about 200% more stations, a total now of 16 (I live a minimum of 30 miles from some stations and about 95 miles from 5 others but am at 2,000' of elevation ).
The feature of adding favorites is neither great not intuitive but is ok...I usually just use the direct channel number anyway.
The remote is not as bad as some reviews have indicated and unless you're a real channel-hopper ( on broascast TV??? ) you won't be bothered with the smaller keys.
I'm waiting on the longevity issue but compared to the APEX units, these are a 10 and the APEX is a -5 !!!
I am ordering 2 more right now, one for my shop and one for the game room.
Broken in 2 Months August 23, 2010 FLGAL 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Purchased 2 Zinwell converter boxes, June 2010. Used 1 2hrs/day and used the other 1hr/month. The more used one quit working last night for no apparent reason. I switched it out with the other Zinwell which was rarely used. Of course I want to return the faulty Zinwell box for a refund or replacement, but as you can understand, I am apprehensive about the reliability of this product. Will the one I am using now also fail in 2 months?

HAVEN'T QUITE FIGURED IT ALL YET. It is replacing a $200 unit that quit after only 17 mos of use. I'm hoping for a longer life!
