I bought one for my son's tv and one for mines. It's great except for the remote control, for some reason I'm always calling customer service for help with it. They do resolve the issue quickly.
I bought this to add to the dining area TV and have a Roku3 in the living room and bedroom already. We love the Roku3 and was a little disappointed with the stick because it was slow to load. It streams well though so we quickly got used to the slow start up versus the Roku3.
We had an internet TV, but it never seemed to work quite right. Getting to the different sites (Netflix, HULU, etc..) always seemed to have problems. So we bought a ROKU stick, and it is very easy to use and navigate to what you want to do. Love it.
I have had the streaming stick for just over a month now. Initially there was a problem activating it due to a software problem. This was disappointing and took about a day to resolve. The set-up directions were bare minimum and could have been more clear and complete. I am 62 and not the most tech savvy person; Roku please bear in mind that not all of your purchasers are under 30 and such tasks are not second nature to all of us! Now that it's up and running, I am using it solely for Netflix and am enjoying lots of different TV shows as well as movies.
