Convenient but slow to respond

It's convenient to just plug and go. We have 1 in the living room and 1 in our bedroom. The remotes are worthless. Downloading the remote app is better but the response is still frustrating. Once you can get something to play there are usually no issues.
I was using the roku stick with a television in my upstairs living room..and my Internet is in the lower level basement which is also my office and the roku stick can't connect to my wireless network..it's so frustrating and so I had to remove it and I gave it away as a gift..
We have 2 Roku 2's. Bought the Stick so we can take our Roku with us when we travel. It works great. We also have Apple TVs, and we find that the Roku exceeds the Apple in performance and music in every way. I was initially concerned with response of the Stick to the remote, but I found that the problem was with the TV I was using it with. Space is a small issue with the HDMI port on some TVs. I am looking for a short HDMI cable to remedy that problem.
I cut the cord from Att around 6 weeks ago and I couldn't be happier. The Roku provides plenty of tv and movies and picture quality is as good as cable. Not to mention the $ I'm saving.
ROKU is the best. I own at least 6, i have lost count. No matter which model fits your feature needs, its a no-brainer. Easiest technology to use. My 92 year old mom has no trouble operating it. Is so easy. Max resolution up to 1080p, up to the tv and the channel provider. The roku is not the weak link. Everyone should own one at least. My favorite tech device to use and i have a LOT of tech.
