This product is excellent value for money. The built in Wi-Fi was easy to set-up and there are no problems streaming movies from Netflix. Just a shame that it does not have an Icon for Amazon Prime. That would make it faultless

Not good. After the second one had the same software fault, Humax very kindly suggested that I could have a brand new one. I have to say, that's not exactly spot on either...

This is my 5th HD recorder from Humax over many years and my second FVP-4000T 500GB. Wonderful reliable recorders and excellent quality and value for money. Humax is the Company for me. Thankyou!

The FVP-4000 looks like new. It was easy to setup and after the updates were installed work ok. The only glitch I have had so far is the "HOME BUTTON" freezes up. Switching the unit off at the mains and restarting it cures the problem. All the other functions work fine and it has not missed and recordings. The tv guide loads very fast from power on. The apps supplied are not much use except for catch up tv, YouTube, and Netflix. The search function is good as it looks at tv channels and YouTube. If you plug in a wireless keyboard it makes life a lot better entering the search details.

Really great recorder. Looked brand new. A lot of really good features. I particularly like the fact that you can transfer recordings to a USB stick. I then transfer them to a USB hard drive to play in our motorhome. The remote recording seems to work but it is a bit hit and miss. When I bought the recorder, the person I spoke to from Humax direct assured me that a new remote recording app would be coming out soon to address all of the problems with the present app. In all I'm extremely with my purchase.
