We were using the Firestick and had every problem imaginable. Someone told us to try Roku and what a difference! It connects everytime, it's fast, and it's all around the best product. We got one for every tv!
If you’re looking to cut the cord, do it…and get the Roku remote, it is definitely worth it. My tv in the bedroom is a smart tv with Roku already connected, and my living room isn’t, but now it is with the Roku stick; plus so many channels
I bought this Roku to have a way to watch movies and sitcoms without having to pay the high costs for satellite or cable. It is so easy to use and works great for me.
