I have had the streaming stick since the day it came out.. I love how tiny the device is, I love that it takes up no wall space, no desktop space, no cords to be seen, no power cord to the wall. It is a great Solution.. My only critique on the device is that it is slow to start and get going. Once it is up and running it functions as well as the top Roku device. But I still love the product and glad ii purchased it.
I bought this a couple months ago so I could stop hooking my computer up to the TV to watch Netflix. It works great and I can move it from one TV to the other very easily. I have only used it for Netflix so far, but it has many other movie watching options. I recommend it if you are an average TV watcher like myself and don't need lots of fancy instruments and gadgets.
I've had the stick for a few weeks I love it the only problem I have with it is a few channels I have to in plug power cord it seems to get stuck and will not do anything that is the hulo plus and the life time channel gets stuck or says it has to be started again My internet is fine but other than those irtating problems.s I do love it.
I have 6 Rokus. 1- XD, 3- 3's and now 2 sticks. Obviously I love Roku however if the sticks were my first Roku experience I would not have been such a pleased customer. They seems to hang up and drop out more than the boxes. I actually put 3 box on the same TV in the same location as a stick and conducted a trial which show the stick to be a bit buggy. Love the idea and convenience of the stick but wish i had bought 2 Roku 3's instead. Not for the extra features which are nice but for the more reliable platform.
I bought this a few months ago,and it works most of the the time.sometimes it crashes and freezes and and the remote don't work,but for the price it's an amazing deal.
