Awesome! I bought the Roku about a month ago to get away from my over the top cable bill and I can't be happier. I still get all my shows I love to watch and have thousands of choices every time I sit down to watch TV. This Christmas I'm going to buy two more for my family. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys movies and TV. Easy to use. Easy to setup.
Remote does not stay paired with the Roku streaming stick. Rook provided a short cable that has helped ALOT, however, the remote looses contact every so often. When things work, it is great. Much better than cable. The portable aspect of the stick is appealing.
When my son was visiting me a month ago, he ordered me a Roku. (I paid for it). It never worked properly. My less than one year old TV stopped working and I had to have a factory technician come to my house and replace it under warranty, Then I had to have the cable repairman come out so I could change channels on my TV. Finally, I could install the replacement ROKU. My nephew set it up. I am so happy. I can watch my British and PBS shows.
I love that I can add so many other options, I honestly didn't even know I had or were out there... I still have my cable but I love having all the options! The stream stick is GREAT!! YOUR TEENAGER CAN NEVER SAY... "THERE'S NOTHING ON TV" WITH ROKU... YOU HAVE ACCESS TO EVERYYYYTHING! HALLELUJAH! :)
