My local tescos had a lot of choice when i went in yesterday - all seemed pretty reasonable price wise.

Not sure of differences between online and in store range/price differences.. if there are any!

You can get a box ANYWHERE for about £25.
Can`t see how one makes better than the other.
They are all guaranteed for a year and thats it.

The most important thing is your aerial,if it`s not wideband you won`t get good freeview reception.

Also I would say that the Tesco one is a good choice because:

1. It's quite good looking IMO;

2. It has two SCART sockets on it so you can daisy chain with a VCR/DVD player so you can have three boxes, e.g., DVD and video as welL if you have two SCARTs on your TV, or two boxes if you have only one SCART on the TV. Argos's cheapest box with two SCARTs is £35.

3. It's as cheap as anywhere and you even get Clubcard points.
