This turned out to be a really easy way to get to Netflix on my TV instead of having to hook up a laptop and HDMI cable to it. I had a hard time finding the right button under the cover of the remote but after that was able to go through the install pretty easily. From the main menu it's easy to get to Netflix.
always had cable, 225 channels and constantly surfing. with Roku its all right there and i can always find something including my favorite country artist. have always recommended Roku to friends ever since my daughter bought one 2 years ago.
This is so easy to install. It takes up no room. Remote is easy to use. There are many stations available. I use an old Wii for our big TV. When that goes, I will purchase another Roku. The one with a earbud jack looks interesting. I have told many people about Roku. I have never heard a complaint.
I bought it a month ago and have been satisfied the remote only works part of the time so i seem to use an app on my phone to use it i don't like hot the power cord attaches make it look messy and the Netflix will buffer i mostly got it for amazon prime because that doesn't work well on my apple TV but works much better on the Roku
I bought the stick and in exactly 7 days it stopped working, or I guess it was more so the remote. The remote stopped working. I did the reset for the remote numerous times, reset the stick numerous times, afterwards I would be able to click the remote once and then afterwards it would respond. Then I put the roku remote on my iphone, but then the stick would not recognize my internet. It showed that my signal strength was excellent but it would not connect to it, or it would for about 5 mins, but then the remote and the iphone remote still would not work. So I returned it. Very disappointed. I saw other reviews posting the same complaint. I was also upset that it didn't offer ABC Family app.
