We have an older Roku that we put in our den and now have the stick, which we put in our bedroom. It's a pretty good distance from our router and it receives the signal without a problem. The think I like the most is the portability of the stick. We can pull it and move it to another TV or I can take it with me to use on my laptop.
The only downside to it is that the menu screen isn't like our initial Roku, so we have to hunt for what we are looking for. I'm sure it won't take long to get used to it but it would be nice if they both looked the same.
Great investment and alternative to the cable companies. One small criticism is that the Roku stick gets stuck buffering/loading/retrieving sometimes and you have to stop and reboot the stick. Otherwise I'd rate it a 5 .
I got this for my sister for a Christmas present and she absolutely loves it. She watches this now more than she does regular T.V. She tells everyone how great it is and best present ever.
too much work to figure out where the content I want to watch is. Guess if I sat in front of the thing for hours, I would figure it out. Then shows I wanted watch/Movies I wanted to watch could or did not stream well, yet I had excellent signal strength and very good internet connection. Then the next show would stream ok, but not my preferred movie.
