Love being able to access more European movies and TV shows through ROKU. More educational opportunities along with more comedic fun - Hope everyone gets one..
The roku stick is cheaply made and it is lose in all my 3 TVs HDMI jacks. Never used these HDMI plugs for anything else, so they are not worn. Many times I've had to re-sink the remote with the streaming stick while attempting to use the Roku. Once it is operational it works fine. It's getting it to initially work that is a chore. My initial stick was used periodically, and when I did try to use it, it would not work half the time. I finally called Roku, it was 3 or 4 days passed the warranty and they sent me a new one, but I had to pay shipping. I have an older SX Roku and it seems to be very reliable. I am disappointed in the stick.
Very simple installation. Channel choices are many and varied. Paired with a high speed router and you'll not have any buffering issues. Provides cost effective alternative to subscription premium channels from cable/satellite companies.
I wished I had bought one sooner! I didn't realize all I was missing out on! After seeing mine, I had to turn around a day later and purchase one for my husband. He has become a streaming monster! You can't get a better product on the market today! Absolutely love our Roku sticks!
We bought the streaming stick about a month ago. Set up was easy enough. Kids are able to use it easily, even the youngest. Going to be buying 4 more for the kids TVs.
