Love my Roku Streaming Stick

I was already familiar with Roku, starting out with the Roku XD and then progressing to the Roku 3. I wanted another Roku for my bedroom television, and when the Roku Streaming Stick was first announced, I realized that this was just what I was looking for. It is small, fits right into my televisions USB port and works like a dream. I love all of the channels I can get, most of the one's I have are free, but I also have Netflix and Amazon Prime. Everything the larger Roku's do, the Streaming Stick does. I have had no problems with my Streaming Stick and would recommend this to everyone.
I love everything about Roku Streamers, I have four of them and six TVs. With the Stick, it's the same only it doesn't take up counter space and you can move it or travel with it easily. The only thing I did not like was it would continually play programs and I could not find how to disable that feature.
We absolute love it and the feature that we are able to have the remote via our smartphone was a huge plus. One feature I would like would be the ability to access abc, cbs or nbc as well
Bought this several months ago and I am very pleased with it. Works great, doesn't take up space and works perfectly and provides all the streaming apps I could possibly want.
Easy install, easy to use. However when it looses the router, you get a blank screen and have to find that small switch to re-boot. Looks like the design team bypassed Human Engineering.
I got this about a month ago. Twice so far it has quit working, once last night, and I have had to climb behind the TV set, unplug the power and plug it back in, to get it working again. Kind of annoying. When it's working it is good.
