I scratched my head for days trying to get my Roku Express 4K+ to operate.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there, thanks for sharing. We want to help. Please make sure that you are using the USB cable that came with your streaming player. In some cases, the USB power provided by the TV is not sufficient to power the device. That’s why consider connecting it to the wall outlet. You can also visit the following article on how to set up your Roku: https://support.roku.com/article/1500004673682. If the issue persists, you can try to plug it into a different television to see if it makes any difference. If you need further assistance, you can contact us at https://support.roku.com/contactus. We hope this helps! Roku Customer Advocate

Hello LaCona, thanks for sharing and this sounds a bit unusual. It's important to note that all Roku devices should have a stable internet connection to avoid a playback issue. You can check the connection by going to Home > Network > Check Network Connection. Additionally, try restarting your Wi-Fi router. You can also try moving your router and Roku device to a higher location in the room. Also, make sure that your TV is not blocking the wireless signal to the Roku device. Visit this page for more tips on fixing playback issues https://support.roku.com/article/208755548.
If your TV is turning off, it may be because the auto-power savings feature is enabled. To learn more or disable it, visit our article here: https://support.roku.com/article/6306527767575.

We appreciate your feedback. Happy Streaming! Roku Customer Advocate
Bought and installed my new Roku about 4weeks ago. Very pleased with the ease of setup. I'm impressed with the amount of channels and apps available. My only issue is with the remote. Not only is it too small, but the lack of lighting on the keyboard is frustrating. The buttons could be larger and perhaps re-assigned locations. The side buttons are very inconvenient as every time I try to use the face buttons, I end up muting my program. Having said that, my Roku experience has been excellent! But please fix the remote (and send me a new one!)
I bought this about a month ago and overall, I think it is a really good product. One annoying thing keeps me from rating it a great product. If I am watching live TV and "not" streaming through the device, it will unexpectedly turn off the TV. The only way to stop this is to unplug the Roku device when not in use. If not for this one thing, I would definitely give it a 5 star rating.
