Received it for Christmas from my son and daughter-in-law. It was easy to setup. I plugged it into our Amplifier, (Blu Ray player and Satellite box are plugged into it also) Works great.
It's fine. A little slow (the menu's and such, not the streaming). Need to reset it a little more often then I'd like to (think...once a week), but overall I'm happy with it for the price.
Bought this to be able to watch netflix and amazon prime because my dated DVD player couldn't get netflix. Easy hookup. Does what it says and then some. Worked so well I bought a second stick for the bedroom. Problem is, I'm spending way too much time in front of the TV.
I really like my roku streaming stick. My only concern was when I first received the device and plugged it in, the roku stick would keep restarting. After looking online for solutions, resetting everything, etc. I eventually figured out the the cable charging the roku device was faulty. Fortunately I had a cable that worked and have had no problems since.
The ROKU streaming stick works very well. Does all that it should and is just as we expected it to be! We have fairly slow high speed internet so I was worried about a lot of "PAUSES" but it works good.
I bought this expecting at least a couple of years of use like most teck items, wrong. In 4 weeks it quit working, fortunately the store I bought it at stood behind it and replaced it even though they didn't have to. Don't trust this brand
