received the roku stick for Christmas. The buttons on my control do not always work. I have the hardest time getting out of Netflix to turn off the tv. If I just shut it down it continues to play the epsiodes so when I come back to that series it has played another three epsiodes. Can not stop it to go get a drink of water. Oh well.
I primarily bought this item for my elderly mother so she could watch her british shows on Acorn TV. The Roku streaming stick has been great for her with one big exception; the remote goes through 2 AAA batteries in about a week. Mine is already on its 4th pair of batteries and I've had it a month at most. I contacted Roku about this issue and they're sending me a replacement remote. Hopefully, that eliminates this problem. Aside from the battery issue, the Roku streaming stick has been great. There haven't been any buffering issues or any issues with it not working. I recommend it.
I recently purchased it and it is so much better than what I had before less problems and no disruptions while streaming. I continue to enjoy it today.
