reception kind of iffy

most of the time the roku stick can connect with my routers, and when it does - the roku stick delivers everything as advertised. But sometimes it behaves as if there is tremendous interference (that my notebook computers do not experience), and when that happens - the roku is a very frustrating experience. The tools do diagnose the problem don't seem to exist.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Item!

Installation was as easy as 1-2-3 and "Poof!" -- you're up and running! I enjoyed it for several weeks but I always left the unit plugged into the back of the TV and a terrible electric storm coming thru the area resulted in it being struck by lightning. TV not damages but the ROKU no longer worked. When replaced, I plan on removing from the TV when not in use. This damage WAS NOT the fault of the ROKU and I highly recommend for anyone wishing to use the Internet to provide TV programming/movies.

Love this little machine!

My Netflix, Amazon prime, Hulu plus, mls live, CNN, NBC, etc., all there at a push of a button! I absolutely love this little machine! Only reason I've kept my cable is because Comcast said I needed to keep at least some cable to have my internet, but in all honesty I use my Roku more than I do my cable. Only thing, I wish there was a true streaming news channel or a dedicated superhero channel so I didn't have to scroll so much. That's my only gripe.

A little disappointed...

Mine occasionally becomes unresponsive. I have to disconnect the power and 'reboot' it to get it going again. I guess I should have known, but it was a surprise to me that my Logitech universal remote wouldn't work with it. Probably should have gone with the Roku 2 or 3.

The only reason I bought this was so that I would be able to watch my Amazon Prime instant videos on my living room tv. I have an older smart tv with doesn't have the Amazon app. Well, I have 80 channels downloaded to my stick & use several on a regular basis. My kids love watching music videos from Vevo. They have also discovered some of the favorite shows with our Netflix subscription. I like being able to move this to different tv's in the house in a manner of minutes.
