I AM ENJOYING THE ROKU, WE HAVE BEEN WATCHING NETFLIX, SO FAR THE MOVIES HAVE BEEN REAL GOOD. We can watch these movies at our time, plus enjoy them. ROKU system has made watching movies fun, and we do not have to return these movies. Paul
For some reason it took a little while for my Denon receiver to recognize the Roku but once I got it working, it is a simple unit to use with lots of content.
Roku streaming stick is great! My remote was messing up after about at month of having it so I used the online chat to resolve it. The lady on the chat was great and fixed it quickly. I'll probably be buying more of these for my other tv's. Outstanding!!!!!!
I recently returned my Chromecast for a Roku Streaming Stick, initially because the Roku has 1080p streaming capability, and that's what I wanted for my new HDTV. I hadn't done a lot of research on the Streaming Stick, but the price alone, and my past experience with the brand was enough for me to give it a shot. I am really glad that I did, as I was extremely impressed with the performance of the streaming stick! Honestly, I don't know what's not to like about this product. It's small, fast, compact, portable, and plugs into any HDMI port on a tv. It's nice to have the exact same functionality as a full sized roku box, without any actual boxes lying around. Things become even more "out of sight" if your tv has an open USB port available. The remote also works great. In the past I have had issues with having a "clear line of sight" to my roku box to have the remote work, but this remote works without that! I have absolutely no regrets about buying a streaming stick. It works just as well, if not better than my full sized Roku 2. The streaming stick doesn't feel cheap, and my remote even came with good, name brand batteries. And to me, it's the little things that shout "quality"! So you get the stick, the cables, the remote and the full Roku experience with the streaming stick. Roku has created a product that's not only smaller in size, but also smaller in price. That's a win-win for me as a consumer! Thanks!
I bought the Roku streaming stick- and I love it. I does everything I need it to do at a fraction of the cost of everything else. I think it offers everything, if not more than its direct competition. I highly suggest it if you have sub par cable and need some more channels. I wish it had a few more TV station options, but I think that's something the networks decide, not Roku.
I was considering buying a smart tv but reviews advised to get a streaming device with a regular tb instead-I'm glad I did! I love all the options offered on Roku and that they add options frequently.
