not very user freindly

I have had several problems with this device. Technical support not very helpful or friendly. It would be nice if the remote had channel numbers to make it easier to change channels.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I currently own 2 roku 3s (one in the living room and one in the bedroom). I love them! So when I wanted to get my dad something for his birthday I decided to try out the Roku Streaming Stick. After the simple setup and telling him about the functions I realized it is just as responsive as my roku 3s and it works perfectly. My dad has been using it for a couple months now and he loves it! Great product, easy to use, and no complaints at all!

Works as intended

I like the compact design of the Roku stick. Browsing is slower than the Roku 3, but that was expected due to the smaller processor. Also the remote seems to stick once in a while when browsing or fast forward/rewinding. I recommend using the phone/tablet remote, that seems to work much better. In all it works great, love the size and like not having to run a bunch of cables to use it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

streaming stick vs roku three

I started with a Roku 3, liked it so much I decided to get one for the bedroom tv. The Stick was to far from the signal (over 25 ft.) so it would't work right. I just swapped locations. So now the Streaming stick is my main device and works great.
I have the roku remote app on two cell phones and the I pad, so I never have to hunt a remote. I am sold on Roku.

I purchased it about a month ago and I am still learning everything that it will do; but so far I really like it and I like even more not having cable.

not a sports fan so....

I find the free stations that are not sports, have shows and movies that are so so old. I find that I dont' often use it as I can readily get more recent shows and movies on DVD's from my local library for free. So I guess if you do not enjoy movies that are 30 years old, I would not bother wasting the money. Too few newer shows and movies that are free.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The stick is not powerful enough to run apps efficiently enough especially switching apps. It takes several minutes.
