Not sure if this is the right place.

I am looking for one of them boxes that can be used with freeview and enable you to record tv channels while you are out.

Want to get my mom one for her birthday!

Budget £100?

Cheers.

Theres a Luxor one in a big supermarket for £70,

250gig HDD , 2 tuners etc etc.

Would this be okay?

Supermarkets sell products cheap from faceless factories. Luxor is just a badge name they stick on these sort of boxes. They aren't like a Sony, Panasonic, Humax, Philips etc where there's some decent info on the manufacturers site. What you're going to have to do is buy one and try it, but the old phrase rings true here - "You get what you pay for"

I only want something for my mom to be able to record with.

Humax it is, thanks for all your advice.

What model do you recommend?

You can buy a graded box direct from humax. They are fully re-engineered if required but are also shop returns or stock reductions and they are sold with a full guarantee. At the moment they have PVR9150T-G for £89.95 which is an absolute steal at that price.
