New tele for office room - no idea if it's any good but it seemed to cheap not to

Noseying round a local electrical place today and they had a display model

Humax LP 32-TDR 1

32 inch lcd with built in 160Gb pvr and freeview

was up for 300 quid so I thought it would do for my office

doesn't really matter if it's top notch ( can't be at that price ) as it is only on in background with sky news on etc

anyone know anything about them ? was the deal ok ?

quick pic, just need to paint where I scratched the wall now :p

You appear to be watching cricket. :)

Humax make a lot of stuff that gets rebadged by others (with an appropriate mark-up). Quality probably somewhere in the middle, but as you say, it'll do the job. :)

For £300 with 160 pvr freeview who gives a toss?! :D Where the hell was this and where can my parents get one? It's basically perfect for what theyre after!

was at one of the Empiredirect stores ( this one was Derby ) , might be worth giving a couple a call

I have a Humaz 5400Z satellite box which has given me little trouble over about 6 years

I think they are more well known in Germany

You think right. A relatively recent entrant to the UK en masse. :)

well it's stayed on the wall which is a good start ( 30kg ish on a stud wall ) :shocked:

seems good enough for what I want and certainly for what I paid

only pain is not being able to record from Sky as the feed up here is an analogue RF one
