I have a ROKU TV and I love it. I love how the system is and how easy it is to operate. We got a ROKU stick for our TV in our bedroom so that we could stream TV and things like Netflix and Amazon Prime. Unfortunately the remote has some issues, it only seems to want to respond half of the time. We've changed batteries and restarted the remote and are still having the same problem. Also for some reason the remote seems to have a mind of it's own and it will continue to scroll past items items when we haven't even pressed the button or we only pressed it once. I would still recommend ROKU but I wouldn't recommend the stick. I would recommend the actual ROKU itself.
We were tired of paying for cable, but we still wanted to have more options than what we can get over-the-air. Roku is great for accessing a few more channels on demand, including our Sling subscription. My only complaint is that some of the "free" channels require a cable subscription. If I had a cable subscription, I'd watch them on cable!
I've been using Roku now for over a months and it has turned my Regular TV to a smart one. I get to enjoy watching Netflix, Sling TV, hulu and many other apps anywhere I have WiFi available. I like it alot, cheaper than cable.
