    Depends what you want them for!

    For UK you want a "Freesat HD" box.

    For non-UK the basic generic boxes are ok for one or two mainland European satellites, but limited.

    In the past B&Q have sold mediocre dishes and boxes.

    Jaysus RobitTV.you really do insist on scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to satellite equipment.
    You've gone from Lidl stuff to B&Q which is pretty much on a par with Lidl.

    For the sake of an extra 20-30 euros you would get far better quality HD equipment, from irish suppliers delivered to your door in 2 days, rather than dumped obsolete German products.

    Re; satellite equipment from B&Q (is it Ross brand?) - you will get what you pay for.
