Perfect as a secondary streamer

I've had this streaming stick for a few months now and I must say I'm quite happy with it. As your main streamer in your living room, I wouldn't recommend it. I have a Roku 3 in my living room and it's UI is fast, zero input lag, and overall perfect for heavier use. However, the stick is used in my bedroom and I would definitely recommend this be used as your secondary streamer. The UI bogs a little at times and there can be a little bit of input lag from the remote. It's nothing horrendous, it still runs really well, just an occasional bit of lag every once in a while, but only when navigating, video never lags behind or skips frames or anything like that. Highly recommend this as your secondary streamer...

The Roku Streaming Stick was our 3rd Roku device purchased (Roku XD, Roku 3). The ease and simplicity of use make this device perfect for my entire family, including my two small kids (2 & 4). It's affordable price and familiarity made it an easy choice. We also purchased Google's Chromecast but no longer use thanks to our Roku Streaming Stick. Buy the Roku Streaming Stick today! You won't be sorry! They constantly surprise us with new updates and content! ROKU ROCKS!!!!

The ROKU Streaming Stick is an amazing value. I have had mine for about 6 months and it was super easy to set up and use. No longer giving my $$ every month to a satellite dish provider!!

bought this for a second tv and it works great. We just wanted to steam some movies and shows without having another device with wires since the tv is mounted to the wall. The roku stick was the answer. We live in the country and our internet is spotted at times but we haven't had many issues.

Purchased one when it first came out and it stopped working after three months. Would buy another Roku but not a Streaming Stick.

I bought this about a month ago and was hoping to use it in the hotel. But found that it did not fit in the Philips tv without a right angle extension - so was not able to used it until I got home. It works great with the Vizio TV I have there with the extension that I already had at home.

I bought the stick in May any time anyone else gets on the wifi thw roku stops working I have since stopped using it because my laptop keeps the wifi signal even when im on my phone and tablet at the same time to reiterate the stick will not stay on my wifi if I use anything else. I do like the other products but the stream stick I have is terrible

Slick little gadget!

I've had this for six months, and really like it. My only complaint was that it didn't fit into the HDMI on my TV that I had intended it for; however that is more a criticism of the TV. It needs about 2" extension beyond the port (which most TV's have). It's on another TV and is great--good amount of free content and very easy to use. Apps on Apple and Android products turn them into remotes. I also like how small it is--as a frequent traveler, I can take it with me and plug into my hotel's TV for movies on the road
