I've been using my Roku stick for sometime now and love it. It is easy to use and offers great diversity of viewing material. You're missing out if you don't have one.
Before purchasing this item, I was concerned about how difficult it would be to set up, with me being a complete technophobe. I needn't have been concerned as the whole process was very easy and straight forward.
I do have an issue with the amount of time that some channels take to access the programme required. Particularly Channel 5, it takes so long to get going.
I have a Roku 3 and stick both. No problem with the Roku 3. Super fast; no waiting. However the Roku stick is terrible. The apps are constantly freezing up. Have to keep unplugging and resetting constantly. When scanning my apps, it will hang up and continue scanning the apps non-stop or just set there. Almost every time I turn on, I have to set up the internet all over again. It is on a TV right next to my TWC router. I have the fastest speed with no buffering from TWC. I would not recommend wasting money on the stick, and instead, invest your money on the Roku 3. Maybe my stick I have had for 4 months is a lemon? Anyway, it's money down the tubes.
All my TV viewing in one place! Just plug in, add all your apps & start watching! So much more inexpensive than cable or satellite with only the shows you want to watch and none of the ones you don't!
