Frustrating at times

I got this on Christmas Eve and was able to set-up right away. Used it with my netflix account and is was wonderful for nearly three weeks, then we begun having problems with streaming of some movies and when it really wants to act up we have no voice at all...this lasts for several hours then straightens itself out somehow. Very frustrating.
Device played intermittently. In the middle of a show, it would stop to reload. This could take a good 2 minutes to do. It is better to buy a smart DVD player or the Roku that plugs into the wall. The wall versions are much faster at loading.
Purchased for the family as a Christmas gift and we are pleased. I have been recommending Roku to friends, family and co-workers. Only suggestion would be to add Bluetooth capability or 3.5 audio jack to stick for soundbar connection.
This is a fantastic product! We got rid of cable a few months ago and the Roku Streaming Stick is a great alternative. So many great channels to chose from and it runs very smooth, I highly recommend getting one!
I love my Roku! I love being able to watch movie and shows on MY time. It's great to be able to watch a show from Season 1 Episode 1 through to that years season with no commercials.
