Terrible product

I bought the Roku Streaming Stick and began having trouble a little over a month later. Roku exchanged it for me multiple times, however, the issues persisted - remote stops working, purple screen appearing with audio. After multiple exchanges, I was upgraded to a Roku 3. I believe the Roku Stick has some serious design flaws, as evidenced by the fact they have had to produce components to deal with the issues, and they will send you the component free of charge. Do not waste your money on the Roku Stick.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Easy to Use

I replaced my Chromecast stick with a Roku stick because the Chromecast kept overheating. The Roku stick works well with some added features over the Chromecast. However, the remote, from the start, has problems. Randomly, a battery needs to be removed and replaced and then it will work again. Unfortunately, I waited to see if I wanted to keep it before replacing the remote and now it is too late. I hoped the problem would resolve itself but it continues to intermittently need the battery repositioned.

I purchased the Roku Streaming Stick to mainly watch the Parables Movies - to date I have not been able to sit and watch a movie completely through - the movie constantly stops and starts - I have called and have not been able to get this resolved. Also this past Saturday the Netflix had an issue - kept saying working on it - but I had no problem watching the netflix on my Ipad. Not happy as of now - need issues resolved!

Does what it's advertised to do. I don't care that there is no Angry Birds.

I like the device overall, but the hand control seems to run through batteries to soon. The channel options fill a gap at this point but might be better.
