We love the streaming stick! We were able to take it with us on vacation and access our Netflix while away. We also love being able to move it from TV to TV in the house!
I have apple TV but I purchased this so I could stream Amazon and Pandora without having to use airplay. I really like it with the exception that the remote doesn't work. It only works for a minute and then you have to take the batteries out and put them back in again. I spoke with some of my friends and they said they have this same issue so I'm guessing it's the remote itself.
I loved the streaming stick but the remote quit working two months in. To buy a new remote was expensive. Almost as much as the whole thing. So I went and bought a different Roku 1.
I got Roku to replace my basic cable that was becoming too expensive. Found majority of my shows and shows I never knew existed. I think the remote could be better. Often unsyncs for some reason. Other than that I would highly recommend.
This is my second stick. I bought it at the same time as I bought a "smart" tv. At first I thought maybe I'd take the stick back. But then I found that my smart tv rejected my cable system so I was glad that I got it after all. I see that more choices have been added.
