Sky Plus (Sky+) Reviews

For a long time I refused to get Sky+ because I said we'd never use it. After giving in to pressure and having it installed I cant believe we ever managed without it. There are very few programmes I watch 'live' anymore. The Sky + box comes with an 80gb hard rive, which is more than enough for most people, you would need to be an ...  Read the complete review

Aaaah Sky+. To me this is the best bit of technology in my house. This is one of the newer sky boxes where you are able to record t.v programmes, you can then rewind,fast forward and pause them.

I often find myself saying, I'll record it and if I watch it, I watch it.

I first got Sky + about a year ago, and for the first 3 months had to have our box replaced 3 times, which was a little frustrating- I had recorded ("Sky Plussed") a few things which I hadn't yet watched and lost them all! However, after these initial teething problems, we now have a box which gives us no trouble at all. It is ...  Read the complete review

God, how did I live without sky plus before now?!?!?!? I've only had it five weeks and nearly used up the memory on the taped section. Basically the box comes and gets plugged in to your phone line.

How did we ever manage without Sky plus? Oh yes - we spent hours setting up the Video or DVD recorder - to come home and find we hadn't actually set it up. And if we were going away and had to record a few episodes of Coronation St.......we were flummaxed!! And all those times we missed the important bits as the phone rang or someone ...  Read the complete review

We decided to get Sky + a few months ago as our Sky box and dish had been playing up and we didn't see the point in paying for it to be fixed when we could pay to get Sky + instead. Although we paid £150 for the Sky + box and to get it installed it is the best £150 we have ever spent and I cannot imagine life without ...  Read the complete review

Just imagine, your out at a party enjoying yourself, dancing the night away, when suddenly you remember your alltime favourite tv show is about to start!

How many times have you brought an electrical item on a whim and gone about a year later, why the hell did I buy that? Well you'll never will say that with Sky +. This is probably the best thing we as a family, have ever brought.

We got Sky plus 3 and a half years ago when we moved into our own house. Immediately we loved it, although I think it was more that we had control after what we watched after living with our parents and watching what they chose. It meant we could compromise on what we watched, he watched something whilst I recorded something and vice ...  Read the complete review

Before Sky + recording things was such a pain in the rear end. Tapes would never be labelled, things wouldn't correspond to the timings in the TV mag and the codes never worked. You would put in your copy of last night's 'London's Burning' only to find the news at 10 instead. Along comes a system that is totally foolproof, a system that ...  Read the complete review

Sky plus is a fantastic invention that has made my life so much easier to manage, it makes me wonder how I managed before - back in the days of taping everything that you wanted to watch. It basically enables you to set your sky system to record any programmes that are coming up in the next 7 days, just by pressing a button on your ...  Read the complete review
