I purchased the streaming stick for a Christmas present. Little did I know I'd be the one who loves it. I highly recommend it for those like us who are tech challenged. I look forward to the day when we can have a choice on programming suppliers and get away from the cable companies.
Plug it in and it guides you along easily. You need a tablet or smart phone to access the website to get codes, but otherwise it's very easy. The only problem I've had is randomly I have to reboot it which means logging back in again (remembering passwords) and going through the process of setting up again.
I've really enjoyed having the Roku for the last couple of months. The only issue, which is a huge one for me, is the remote will work on and off. I've reset it plenty of times but it's never been reliable. Because of this reason, I think I would rather save up and buy a smart tv
Bought this product a few months back and I can't get the remote to connect to the player, when and if the player detects the remote it has a hard time connecting to the internet. When u only watch tv a few hours a night and it takes an hour for the roku to connect what's the point.
I love my Roku stick. I also have the Google chromecast stick, if you are trying to decide between the two definitely get the Roku. It was easy to install and works great for Netflix, Hulu, etc.
