The TEAC SDB450 is a great product for anyone looking for an affordable, simple and easy way to access digital TV.

A perfect entry into the world of digital television - cheap, small, and simple, and without any major flaws.

Legend Digital's LSD2 offers inexpensive standard definition digital (DVB-T) support.

The standard-definition Unimax ST-102 has a full range of features, and no major flaws at all.

Even without support for high definition, the CTDV100 delivers sharp, clear pictures with an easy-to-use interface and functions.

The LSDDVD does the job well enough, but suffers from a substandard DVD player.

If you want a high quality HD set-top box but don’t need recording capability, Sanyo’s simple, speedy unit can do everything you need.

The Mediastar DT-720 was surprisingly easy both setup and use. Although the package includes some useful features, it is almost the double the price of rival standard definition tuners

While the device offers clean, clear images for anybody looking to make the switch to digital television, a few slight glitches make it unsuitable for the mainstream.

The Humax PVR-8000T is unspectacular, but does a decent job as both PVR and digital set-top box.

The DEC2000T is a handy two-in-one purchase, giving you both a PC-based tuner and a standalone digital set-top box in one hit. It would have been great if you were able to access the PC-based capabilities of the box (such as recording and time-shifting) from your TV set.

It may have uninspiring looks but the LHD3 performs to a good standard.
