Roku Streaming Stick!

I am very sorry to tell you that the Roku Streaming Stick was a disappointment to me! The first one I bought didn't work. The one I replaced it with also had problems. The remote didn't work well at all it had a mind of it's own and scrolled on it's own. I would not recommend the Roku Streaming Stick to anyone. I also had problems with Roku 3 as well. The first one froze and the replacement does funny stuff too. Their kinda laggy for me. I think the makers of ROKU should try better technology or something, it's not working for me! Sorry Roku!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Added new LCD TV to our downstairs bar and we needed more entertainment sure miss the gaming. Add a micro SD memory slot and maybe work on getting games to work on the Roku Stick.

The one in living room works great. The new one in the bedroom kinda sucks. It freezes up often and I have to remove one battery. Put it back in and the sticks works again but then freezes back up if I do a decent amount of searching on Netflix
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is an amazing product and I will recommend it to everyone I know. I have no need for cable because of the wide variety of programs and apps that you can download on the Roku. It is easily one of the best purchases I have ever made.

Go for the Roku 3 at minimum.

I have two Roku players. Two years ago I bought a Roku 3, but wound up moving it to another room about a month ago. I purchased a Roku Stick because the sales person told me it was the same as the 3 just without the motion sensor. It was also cheaper. The result has been constant issues that I did not have with the 3. First is the remote. It doesn't stay connected and I have to remove the battery to wake it up. This happens often. The Stick also seems to respond slower to the WiFi and to remote commands. Overall the Stick just doesn't seem to respond as well. I am going to get another 3 or wait on the 4. I think the 4 will be great simply due to the remote finder. The kids tend to lose the remove often.
My advice is spend the money on the 3 or 4. The 3, based on experience, is a more solid unit.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My experience would be better if the remote did not frequently freeze up. I have found that removing a cell will reset it, but it is a hassle to do it so often! I was very pleased to find that I could cast photos and videos from my tablet to my Roku stick. It worked well.
I would recommend this to a friend!
