I subscribed to Sling TV and received my Roku Stick with my subscription. It really works well and is easy to install. Only issue I have is some of the channels that are supposed to be available are not easy to access. You must login and be a member with service thru a provider. Roku is not one of the choices on the listing. So if I want to discontinue my Sling subscription, I won't be able to access those channels. Misleading in the Roku information. This is a great addition to our antennae TV channels.
When I am able to watch something, it kicks me off and has to load or just kicks me off for some unknown problem. It always says excellent connection and everything in my house that in connected to the internet works fine. On the rare occasions that it does work. it is great. I cannot get the codes to go through much either, so I have few channels :(
I brought the Roku Stick in July. It was working good. But in August I started having trouble with the stick cutting off in the middle of the picture. It would rebuff itself right in the middle of the show. I wrote the company and they told me to reset the the stick. I have done this and it still keep rebuffing and over heat in the middle of the show. I am really not happy any more. I took it back to the store to see if I could exchange it again, I was unable to do this. The first one I had was out of date so I had to return it for this one. If I could get better service, it would be OK. As of now I am not happy with the service of the stick.
I bought this not so long ago and I love it it works great. Although it does run slow sometimes it could just be my internet. But nonetheless it's worth the money every cent.
I think has got to be the best purchase I have made this year. I first bought the Roku and then bought the Roku streaming stick for my upstairs tv. I think it saves me in gas and wasting time at video stores.
I bought the Roku Streaming Stick about a month ago and man does it make life easier. Before, my boyfriend and I were huddled trying to watch Netflix and Amazon Prime on our computer. Now we can spread out on the couch and watch from our 55" TV - squinting or struggling to hear is a thing of the past. The device was super easy to set-up and navigate. So glad we bought this device!
I enjoy my roku very much. It streams very well, is user friendly and I like the way channels are offered. I need it for sling tv, but have started using for hulu too. I have tivo and for some reason there are tiny "blackouts" streaming hulu, just hulu...only hulu and only on my tivo, very strange...I like better than my firestick,
