Bought this a month ago and LOVE it. Will never pay for cable services again! Love the choices of shows and channels and if I really need to watch something I can choose to pay for it! Had goggle Chrome prior and loved it but the Roku is a whole new dimension!
I purchased this for my elderly mother and she loves it. It is very simple for her to understand and since she isn't by any means tech savvy it is very easy for her to use. We also have the worlds slowest wifi at 3 mbps, and it doesn't glitch get blocky or anything like that. It is actually kind of amazing how this little stick work.
I love my Roku, but I wish I knew that it actually doesn't work for wall-mounted televisions - though it says so on the box. When I plugged in the stick on the back on my television and mounted it back on the wall, the Roku stick bent. It works great, so hopefully I won't need to send it in for repair. So, in sum, I LOVE the product but wish it would give dimensions for wall-mounted televisions or if it could collapse a bit and not be so long.
I don't do facebook, twitter, or play computer games, so as an older retired person I have a little more time on my hands. This has been great so far. Most movies I watch are ones I didn't even know existed. Easy to use also. Thanks!!
I've only had this for about a month now and so far it works without problems. I mean, think of it, how many problems can you really have with an item that just plugs into your TV? Plug and play, simple. What's more to say?
Purchased for my 7 year old so she could watch PBS Kids / Netflix while she plays in her room. It is wonderful! The remote does not not have to be pointed at the TV in order to work. My router is downstairs but the Roku stick picks up the wi-fi great. The menu and layout is so simple- perfect for every age.
