I wish the technology provided for closed captions. There's simply no option to choose them and that's a loss.
Pros: Easy to connect, Reliability, Compact, Lightweight, Built in Wi-Fi, High quality picture, Readily on line wireless, Easy to set up
I would recommend this to a friend!

Better wired than wireless.

On the phone with support for hours trying to use the box with WiFi. Once I started using an ethernet cable, all my complaints disappeared. Trying to use Roku in a wireless setting is not worth the trouble. No other device in the same room had the same problems as the Roku. However, content is wonderful, and a great step forward toward cutting the satellite or cable cord.
Pros: Great content, Video selection, Easy to set up, High quality picture, Easy to use
Cons: Bad WiFi reception, Need fast internet service, Inconsistent performance
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great extended range with the XD model. I was concerned that the second box I purchased would not reach from the router, but reception was great. However, the set-up instructions need to be revised. I had to call ROKU for assistance in locating site to install required codes.
Pros: Built in Wi-Fi, Compact, Easy to use, High quality picture, Great value
Cons: Want more video choices, Difficult to set up
