The stick seems to be working ok. However the remote will occasionally freeze the picture and will not start again too one of the batteries is removed - either one. Very annoying.
We bought this about a month ago and it used on a daily basis. I love the fact that there isn't a box sitting on the tv console or visible wires! It's extremly user friendly and has been a great streaming device investment.
Locks up and quits responding all the time. The idea of a stick was no wires. You have to still plug it in so there is this wire sticking out the side of the TV that you cannot hide. I have the box version also and it is much better.
positive: it's fantastic to watch the shows and listen to music through tv Negative: often i have to unplug, wait 10 sec and replug bc it freezes; also, the arrow seems to get stuck, although not physically stuck on the remote. for ex: i hit the down arrow and it just keeps going down on the screen and I can't stop it.
The Roku stick is exactly what I wanted. I tried other streaming devices and experienced too many connectivity issues. The Roku stick's low price made it a great addition to my quest room. I didn't have to pay much for it either. Great speeds, great interface. Just.. great.
