Craig CVD508 Digital TV Converter Box Reviews (DTV)

Product Details: The Craig CVD508 converter box is a government certified converter box that has been approved for use with the governments $40 off coupon. It is not considered a top of the line converter box and is not price out as such. This converter box can be had for $40 which makes it free after using your government coupon. Top boxes to consider that are a bit more expensive include the Dish Network DTVPal Plus. This box doesn't come with the best in industry picture or sound quality but it gets the job done and is an upgrade from what you have come to expect with analog television.

The Craig CVD-508 had composite video and audio jacks. It comes with a remote control that is NOT universal. It has adjustable closed captioning and parental control settings available. It also comes with a sleep timer so that it will automatically shut off at the set time. This converter box also comes with a program guide that provides information about upcoming and currents shows for each channel. One key feature that makes the Craig CVD508 a good buy is its analog pass-through function that allows you to get channels that continue to broadcast in analog. This TV converter box also comes with language support for Spanish, French, and English.

As stated before, the Craig CVD508 is not a top rated converter box but it will certainly get the job done. It comes with the most vital function, analog pass-through, and it is also very reasonably priced at $40. This is a converter box that we do recommend. One complaint about this box is that the remote control is not very good and some of them seem to be faulty. If you get a remote that doesn't work be sure to call right away and setup an exchange. Also if you experience any reception problems it is not likely a converter box issue but rather a sign that you need an HDTV antenna.
