I BOUGHT THE 1ST ONE AND HAD CONSTANT PROBLEMS WITH CONECTING TO THE INTERNET AND THE REMOTE CONTROL WORKED WHEN IT WANTED TO,THE REMOTE IS TOUCH AT TIMES
this was free to me with three months of Sling TV, but was already looking at it to replace a different brand of steaming stick. Many more choices with Roku and works well. The remote is finicky, but I can live with that given that there are phone Apps for that. Also like that the apps are on the stick and not run on the phone as with my other stick.
I bought this with the expectations of getting good streaming and its no better than streaming on my phone it's always buffering. And the remote control doesn't work well.
I bought the Roku stick for the living room (I have 2 Roku boxes for bedrooms) and I love the variety of apps on them all. The only thing that is a downer is that the remote does not like to stay connected; I have to take the batteries out just to "wake it up" so I can select the next series or pause, very frustrating.
I bought my Roku about 6 months ago. I have to reset it frequently, the remote only works most of the time, it gets stuck on certain screens and I can't get back out. When it's working, I really like it but overall its pretty finicky.
I heard about Roku probably 3 years ago and finally bought it about a month ago. I'm not a techie, but I also don't pay for expensive expanded cable, so there's a lot of stuff I would probably watch but miss because of limited access. Roku is beginning to change that. I have been on a marathon of Orange is the New Black, which I'm thoroughly enjoying.
Amazing! Must have and where have u been all my li

I bought this a month ago, loved the boxes and wanted to try the stick! Now, can't live without the stick! Neat, tidy, no wires and easy as 1,2, Roku! The original Rokus are phenomenal, the stick is UBER phenomenal! Portability is a snap and no issues whatsoever! Great product and love, love, love!
