2008-04-30   "Just wanted to thank you for all your assistance in replacing my Tivo HD. In less than 30 minutes I was up and running again. I will be a repeat customer and recommend you to all my friends."
Joe Brill, Binghamton, NY
2008-04-26   " I wanted to tell you about my experience. I ordered the hard drive kit for my toshiba sd-h400 ordering was easy, recieved it in 2 days as promised. Installed it in 15 minutes, was up and running in 40 minutes which included setup and down loading program info from tive. What a life saver no more blocks when watching tv. records fine, and I didn't even realize when I ordered it, that it had twice the capacity as my old one..What a deal.... and I still have my free basic from tv which Is why I didn't want to just buy a new tivo. Again thank you for such good service." Will definitly tell other about your company."
Patty Magruder, Gaithersburg, MD
2008-04-18   " Got you replacement kit for my TIVO today and am enjoying my service once again. Thanks to you for your detailed instructions and for really making a new customer truly satisified."
Mike Moran, Coarsegold, CA
2008-04-12   "I just wanted to write and say thanks for providing great service. Your web site is so well-organized that I was able to figure out which power supply to order for our Series 2 DVR while my wife and 2 kids were whining at me about the TiVo not working! I placed the order Sunday night, the part shipped Monday, and we had a working DVR on Wednesday. Happy family == good Thanks"
Gordon Good, Mountain View, CA
2008-03-31   "Just wanted you to know how pleased I am with the upgrade hard drive you provided for my TIVO which had stopped working. Installation took all of 15 minutes, and the most time consuming part of the process was running through the start-up procedures with TIVO when I plugged the unit back into the system! Anyone who has replaced or added a hard drive on a computer will find everything about the process very familiar. Thanks for providing the service!"
Robert McLeran, Merritt Island, FL
2008-03-31   "Hi, Just wanted to let you know that your directions for adding hard drive and fan to my tivo were perfect.I went from 80 to 260 hours recording. I will definitely buy fom you guys again. Regards, Walter"
Walter Nelson, Smyrna, DE
2008-03-31   "I just upgraded my 80 hour series 2 with a 500GB drive and it was EASY! Good instructions, good packaging, good product - very well thought out for the consumer (and so few things are today). I now have over 650 hours so I can record my stuff AND let the kids keep 20 episodes of Elmo! Fantastic!"
Tony Bogyo, Chelmsford, MA
2008-03-30   "After a power storm knocked out my old Pioneer Tivo DVD recorder, I assumed that the power supply had been damaged, but after talking to one of your techs on the phone, he felt confident it was actually a burned out HD. I checked around briefly but you clearly had the best prices and seemed to offer the best service and support, so I ordered the upgrade kit needed, and was pleasantly surprised to see it shipped that same day, and arrived in just a few days. The installation instructions were clear and easy to follow and in no time at all, my Tivo was booted up and running perfectly again. Thanks for your great service for all us Tivo fans! "
Mary Jo Sminkey, Carlisle, PA
2008-03-28   " Having very easily upgrading my 8 year old Tivo with a new hard drive and power supply, I just wanted to say THANK YOU. The instructions were easy to understand. I did not want to lose my lifetime serivce and thanks to you everything is a-ok. Keep up the great work."
Paul Dambek, Valparaiso, IN
2008-03-28   " I just installed your replacement drive for my Directv Tivo unit and I couldn't be happier. My unit went out and I was trying to buy a new one but apparently Tivo and DirecTV no longer love each other and I was going to have to pay both companies unless I fixed the old one. For less than a new unit, I bought a replacement, installed it in about 15 minutes, and my life is good again. Thank you for such a great product."
John Munoz, San Marcos, CA
2008-03-25   " I just wanted to tell you that the replacement hard drive Weaknees sent was installed by me and has worked flawlessly. My non-technically minded wife even watched me and said that it looked so easy to do that she could have done it....Thank you for a great and needed product and your available phone assistance."
Roy Bryson, Ft Worth, TX
2008-03-25   " Order received on 3/24. Excellent instruction. It took me only 10 minutes to replace the drive ( including vacuuming the dust and lint inside the TiVo box). The unit power up without any problem. I will be glad to recommend anyone that needs replacement drive to Weaknees. Thank you."
Rocky Lee, Los Altos, CA
2008-03-21   "Studied your web site to learn all about options. Ordered a replacement drive for my Tivo Series 2 (300mb). Old one failed to boot after extended shutdown. New one booted right up, everything works perfect. Super fast delivery at a fair price. Extremely well done and informative website!"
Dawson Cooper, Everett, WA
2008-03-03   " Thank you! Thank you! When I first ran across your company, I had my doubts. Mainly, I was fearful I would not be able to install the kit. (Not very mechanically inclined). To my surprise, the instructions were very clear and easy to follow. In fact, it took me longer to reprogram the TiVo than it did to install the upgrade kit. Now, instead of tossing the old one in the trash, and replacing it with a new one that would require purchasing a new contract, my family continues to use the original box with its life time service contract."
Ron Wackowski, Andover, MA
2008-02-27   " On Saturday night, my TiVo's (named Johnny) hard drive went down. After calling TiVo customer service and having them tell me that I could get a replacement unit for $149 but would not get the lifetime service carried over, I turned to an internet search and found Weaknees. Here it is Wednesday night, and I have Johnny up and running again, with the lifetime service intact! The kit made it really easy to install, and I upgraded from an 80GB hard drive to a 300GB one. Weaknees is fabulous, and you saved Johnny's life! Thank you!"
Karen Putt, Mishawaka, IN
2008-02-23   "I'm out of the dog house! My wif[e] is hooked on her tivo and when the hard drive crashed. I needed to get it up and running in a hurry luckly I found you guys through a search and with your quick service all is back to norm in the house hold. keep up the great work! Your se[r]vice was nothing short of outstanding."
Dinger Edinger, Jacksonville, FL
2008-02-20   " I just installed an added drive to my 2 tuner Tivo. (I have done 3 others in the past) I just wanted to comment to you on how good your instructions are. Probably the best of any instructions that I have used. I just installed a wireless rain gauge and the instructions were terrible."
Spurge Hogan, Hillsborough, NJ
2008-02-14   "Just to a note to thank you for your excellent service. The hard drive was a breeze to install, and now my Directv Tivo is working perfectly as new, except with more recording time! Thanks for providing such a great service. "
Gale Williams, Canyon Lake, TX
2008-02-03   "Just a word to let you know that your external modem did the trick on my almost-dead TiVo HDR312 (Philips) box. Since I have Lifetime Service on this machine and now I can bypass my fried internal modem, I save myself $129 a year and another TiVo box. Awesome! Thanks. "
Stu Miller, Franklin, TN
2008-02-02   "I emailed you guys about a week ago with a description of the problem I was having with my TiVo, fully expecting to have to buy a new unit. My email was answered within 30 minutes and I was advised to buy the external modem that ultimately fixed my Tivo! Thank you for the quick response, helpful diagnosis, and easy to follow instructions when the parts arrived. You guys rock!"
Jenifer Fraley, Lewisville, TX
2008-01-31   "Just got a new power supply from you and I'm back in business!! Thanks so much. Once a TIVO user, always a TIVO user. Good to know you're here. Some day I'll be getting a bigger hard drive, but not right now. YOU'RE THE BEST."
Wayne Berry, Virginia Beach, VA
2008-01-29   "Just wanted to thank you guys, you helped me determine that I had a bad drive in my Pioneer 810H Tivo. I am a 76 year old guy, with limited experience in electronics, was scared to death of a project of this nature, however, your detailed instructions were EXCELLENT! We are back in business, my wife thinks I'm a genius. I also hooked the unit to my network and am excited to explore all the neat things I should be able to do with this system. Your ethernet adaptor worked just fine for this connection. Thanks again Gene "
Eugene Mealey, Anderson, SC
2008-01-21   "You guys are 'XXXXing Awesome'. After a week in discussion with the Best Buy Boys and reps from Tivo, confusion and dissatisfaction reigned. Located your website and against advise from everyone, ordered a replacement Hardrive. What a pleasure. It arrived on Frdiay at 4:30PM. Your easy instructions allowed me to install it in 5 minutes. It took about a half an hour for Tivo to re-setup, but we were cooking by dinner time and back recording again. TO ALL THE SKEPTICS - STOP WORRYING AND ORDER. I'm recommending you to everyone. PS. Where to I buy stock in your company?"
Ed Wagner, La Grange, IL
2008-01-19   " I just wanted to say thanks for your help in reviving my Tivo. I emailed you on a Sunday, and was suprised to get a response in about an hour. You diagnosed a hard drive failure. I ordered an upgrade replacement kit, which arrived very quickly. It took about 15 minutes to install, from the time I cracked the case, until I tightened the last screw. Hooked it back up, and everything is working like it should. You were the only ones who gave me a straight answer. Everyone else I contacted just said " send it to us, and we'll fix it". I have two more Tivo units I plan to upgrade, and I will definitely buy the parts from Weaknees. Thanks again."
Ronnie Hays, Oologah, OK
2008-01-17   "Well, being the pessimist that I am I was very dubious about purchasing my DirecTV disk upgrade from you since I found you from Google and had no previous knowledge of your business. After reading your entire website I was impressed by how thorough it was so I nervously made a purchase of my 160gb upgrade.... Three days later your package arrived via UPS. I installed the new disk in about 10 minutes, the instructions were easy to understand and I cleaned the interior of dust and then held my breath while I turned my receiver on. I was amazed that my DirecTV TIVO worked perfectly the first time. Absolutely NO PROBLEMS. WOW! What can I say except THANK YOU for your great service and the great product upgrade for my Tivo. Anyone out there wondering if they should upgrade, my response is DO IT. These guys really do know how to make a great product and make customers happy."
