It's nice, but not without issues.

So the stick is very convenient, I will give it that. It has ample storage space for apps, and obviously installs very easily. It appears though, my only gripe is that the behavior of the stick is a bit too eradic. It slows down a lot, and from time to time it can't connect with some of the apps, or just takes a long time to load the streaming service in trying to use, and it isn't anything with my internet service itself. It's not perfect, but gets the job done. It's still fairly new technology, so I'm sure they're working to make it better. For the money you pay for the stick, I think is a little high for the overall quality, but compared to the other options in the market, it is a legitimate product and worth looking into.
I bought my first ROKU streaming stick over a year ago. When we moved, I bought a second one for the living room TV. I have had very good luck with them, my only complaint was the WIFI kept failing and became annoying. Since figuring out the problem and getting an extender from ROKU itself, we don't seem to be having anymore problems. I highly recommend this product and feel it is well priced and a lot cheaper than cable tv or satellite.
I bought the roku stick so I could stream Netflix and it works great. I love that it is hidden behind the tv and comes with a remote. It works so good that I bought another for my upstairs television.
I got this one..for the front room after I got one for the kids room. I wanted it so the kids could watch netflix. I had to reset it a couple of times not sure if it was my Internet or the stick. But no problems as of now..
