Love Roku

I love Roku however I probably won't buy the stick again, I will pay more for the other options as the stick is in a bedroom and for some reason it keeps freezing or locking up a couple times during a session. It is a pain but a minor inconvenience.
Cheaper hardware causes performance issues during use. Input lag is common when navigating the home menu or flipping between channels. The stick frequently loses connection to the remote which can only be resolved with a reboot and re-pairing. We have a Roku 2 and a couple Roku 3's in other parts of the house and they all work like a champ.
We love our Roku product. NO COMMERCIALS gives us more viewing pleasure...plus, if you happen to be distracted and miss part of your program, just scroll back and hit forward! No need to miss a minute anymore! PLUS, the selection of programs adds to your viewing experience as well!!!
I bought it. I had a bad unit, it kept locking up. Only way to fix was to swap batteries. Free content was very weak. If you have some pay content it would be of value. I haven't quite let go of cable (am a sports fan). Might recommend to those who aren't.
enjoy all available channels and types of programs

We enjoy the Roku. What a bargain! I was able to cancel my Satellite programs to a minimum, and not miss any or the programs we enjoy. I think we have only searched on one show (can't recall which one now( that we could not find!!!
