I enjoy the ease and variety provided to me by my Roku Streaming Stick. It was a wise purchase and enables me to view many programs on a variety of webistes.
Plug it in, find your preferred channels and get busy being a couch potato! I love the money I'm saving on regular cable, have tons of channels and shows to watch and the best part is that it is extremely portable. The picture never cuts out etc., although I think that may have more to do with the Internet connection than the ROKU anyway, but I've not had any issues and this is my second one for an additional TV.
Easy to set up, easy to use. Occasional "disconnect" between remote and HDMI stick, but rebooting both fixes the issue. Great Roku content and access to other channels. Would like to see NBC Sports Network added!!!
I have had it two months. One day it would only show me what is available. I.E. Amazon, Netflix and the like. It would not run movies. I had to unplug it and plug it back in. That seem to reset it.
I bought this thinking it would be cordless and wouldn't detract from from the whole wall mounted set up. Unfortunately that's not the case it does need to be plugged in by a USB cable but it runs off the power of my tv by using one of the USB cables on the tv.
Bought this 30 days ago, slow, drop signal, remote will work only 8 feet away, and the chair is 10 feet. I have 2 other older Roku units, and they work great. I have a new HDTV and it works great with the older Roku, The HDMI version, not working up to the advertised hype.
