freeview box

[arthur]

I'm thinking of buying my daughter a Freeview box for Christmas only to use on the tv in the dining room - we have sky on the lounge and the bedrooms but I don't want to buy or rent another skybox for that room. We have the wi-fi in there and a DVD player and a video recorder that plays caption videos for hearing impaired. I've looked at lots of free view boxes but just not sure which the best one is. It would be good to get one that links to net flix so we can get films that we can't get on sky. Any help or suggested would be appricated. the tv is quite new and would be compatible with free view. Also, do I need an aerial - we have one from before when we had analogue tv - do we need to have an aerial for a free view box
Any help or advice would be great thanks

Youview is pretty good if you can pick one up cheap. You will need an aerial.

If you have smartphones and the TV has a hdmi port I'd get a Chromecast.

If you already have sky with multiroom it may work out cheaper in the long run to upgrade to q as you only pay a 1 off charge for the extra boxes.
