I need to repair every remote at least once a week. Also, the remotes go through batteries every 3 weeks.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Susiam, thanks for letting us know about this matter. We want to provide some helpful ideas. Roku remotes are designed to go the distance, but there are a few things that will drain a remote a bit faster, such as heavy usage of private listening on the remote itself, congested Wi-Fi network around the device, or viewing lots of short-form content. By the way, we also offer the Voice Remote Pro, which is a rechargeable remote with private listening, voice search, voice commands, two programmable shortcut buttons, lost remote finder, and you’ll never buy a pack of batteries again. More details about this remote is available at https://www.roku.com/products/accessories/roku-voice-remote-pro. You can also use our Roku Mobile app. You can check this article: https://support.roku.com/article/1500009664402 for detailed information. We hope this helps! Roku Customer Advocate
Works great except for the remote. Had a problem with one of the buttons, support talked me thru the fix. It fixed that problem, but now the volume control button is really touchy. When I try to lower the volume it start raising it instead unless I push it really slowly.
I have had to reboot this Roku several times. I also had to buy another remote.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Vizio, thanks for letting us know about this matter. We want to provide some helpful ideas. Roku remotes are designed to last, but heavy private listening, congested Wi-Fi, or frequent viewing of short-form content can drain the battery faster. Consider the Voice Remote Pro, a rechargeable remote with private listening, voice search, and voice commands. More details about this remote are available at https://www.roku.com/products/accessories/roku-voice-remote-pro. Please ensure that the device is getting a strong internet connection. Helpful tips can be found at https://support.roku.com/article/213122277. We also suggest doing a software update by going to Home>Settings>System>Software update> Select Check Now to manually check for updates. We hope this helps! Roku Customer Advocate
