Lately we have been dealing with an increasing number of attempts to manipulate product rankings. Note: each person is allowed to post one and only one review for each product. Exceptions can be made only under special circumstances when the reviewer feels that his earlier review must be corrected.
We have a sophisticated manipulation detection system in place and we will not tolerate any attempt to game the system and mislead consumers and our visitors. We reserve the right to delete any review that we feel is misleading or inappropriate and do that at our sole discretion. Thanks for understanding.
Also, from now on we require all reviews to be at least 100 words long. Short reviews, such as "a piece of junk" or "works as advertised" are not very helpful. Consider specifying more details. Elaborate on your location, the equipment you are using, reception quality of specific channels in your area. Check the word counter at the bottom when writing.

| Summary: An OK converter box. |
| Bought this at CC and again, these guys where clueless. I had a choice between the DTT900 & DTT 901, but the sales folks could not tell me the difference (they though it was just a printing mistake). Turns out the DTT901 added analog pass-thru but nobody at CC knows this! This converter does have a very sensetive tuner. Scanning at night picked up all the Chicago stations and many Milwaukee stations. Now I have to physically remove the Milwaukee stations from the channel list because most of the time these signals are not strong enough to receive picture. I would have been better off with a less sensetive tuner. Remote is really cheap. Aspect ratio options suck and have no intuitive meaning. Too many times I can't fill the screen of my CRT TV & I worry about burn-in. The default aspect ratio on this box should have been for the 4:3 standard aspect ratio of most CRT TVs so you don't have to keep changing the aspect option after changing channels. |

| Summary: Don\t buy this if you want to watch football. |
| Our box has closed captioned interference from other dtv converter boxes in the neighborhood. Most of the time this does not bother me, but right now I can\t watch the home football game. All of the other channels work fine. Just the station that I want to watch is not working right. This has happened at other times with other stations. When we are having this problem, we can switch channels and go back to the original channel, and everything is fine for three seconds, and then half of the screen is blocked. |

| Summary: Box is good but has some problems |
| The DTT901 is a good box but needs improvement. Phone help is in India so english is not the primary language very hard to understand. Remote control lettering is dark needs to have brighter lettering. The main problem is that Zenith fails to tell you the other digital devices can block signal. My Wife has the Laptop in the living room when we first installed the box the signal was great we had 7 HD channels. The signal seemed to work some days and not on others for two channels then one morning I turned the box on and was watching one of the channels and the signal was clear as a bell my Wife came in and turned on the laptop and the signal was gone. So I put two and two together and the signal problem was fixed. Up to now I thought we would have to invest hundreds of dollars in antenna upgrades to get local channels. We live so far out in the country we can not even get cable. So if you get this one just be aware of the signal problems |

| Summary: Unexpected clarity in my old TV sets - What an improvement |
| I bought the DTT901 model after reading the reviews. It lets me watch analog or HDTV by simply pressing a button. I was very surprised at the improvement in picture quality in the HD mode. I was glad I bought two of them before Circuit City went out of business in my area. I will likely buy another to convert my remaining TV rather than buying a new HDTV; why spend money when you can get about the same picture quality. |
