Great device, but not the remote.

This thing would be great if I didn't have to remove a battery from the remote every time I pick it up to make it work. It's such a pain. We tried changing the batteries and we still have to take the battery cover off and reinsert one of the batteries every time we want to use it. If it sits for more than five minutes you have to reinsert a battery EVERY time. :-(
I had the original Roku and have always enjoyed its features. I bought the streaming stick for my kids and made them swap! This is so easy to install and use making it perfect for me. I'm thinking I may upgrade to another this year and pass this on to my Mother. I would definitely recommend Roku to anyone.
I got the Roku Streaming Stick for Father's Day. The first one didn't work at all and the second one worked for almost two weeks,then stopped working all together. So I brought that one back and upgraded to the Roku 1 and haven't had a problem since.
I bought this, my second roku, in an attempt to cut the cable cord. No sooner had I purchased it, than I downgraded from a satellite bill of over $200 a month, to less than $50 a month. This was one of the best decisions I ever made.
I must have gotten a bad stick. I've had it a month. Have had to reset three times, and the remote doesn't work most of the time. And yes my WiFi was always connected during the problem. Would enjoy it more if not having all this trouble. Ready to throw it out the window
