I bought this about two months ago and have used it almost daily to stream Netflix, it works great at times. Other times it can't connect to wifi or Netflix.
I bought the streaming stick about a month ago and i use it almost every time I watch TV. It is simple and easy to use and has all the main channels/apps you could think of or want. The only set back that it has had for me is the remote occasionally. I don't know if it is the remote or the stick but it doesn't usually recognize when I am touching a button when I turn it on, it takes a minute for either the remote to turn on or the stick to recognize it, this may not happen with all of them possibly only mine. The picture definition is also only in 720 pi which is not a big deal. It is still in HD and great picture quality, but I prefer 1080 pi.Overall though a great product and definitely worth the buy.
My wife and I purchased this product with the hope of eliminating cable television. The Roku stick is complicated and expensive. We added up the amount that would be changed against our credit card and the amount we pay for cable, it was about the same. Therefore, we return the product.
