The stick works just as it's suppose to. It's so easy to use my 4 yr old uses it with no problems. I love the variety of options and I can choose what I want to watch instead of paying for a whole bunch of channels and only watching two or three. This is a great buy you won't be disappointed.
This is my second Roku. Had my first for nearly 10 years before some minor hiccups caused me to buy a new one. Have always loved the performance. Opted for the streaming stick this time - liked not having to see it or point the remote directly at it. Slightly less speed when starting up a show (takes approx 7-8 sec where the box took 2-3). It has never had to stop to buffer once started and the updated interfaces are great. Highly recommend!
I prefer Roku above the other streaming devices I've looked at because it (a) plays Crunchyroll and Funimation Now, my favorite anime channels which the others don't and (2) it's super portable and easy to use.
This the 3rd Roku I've bought. Every Model is just as good as the other at home. Traveling, the stick is awesome is ti use and set up. Thinking about buying another for the rec room.
I purchased the Roku Stick mainly due to using Netflix through my Play Station 4 was a nightmare. It wouldn't connect most of the time. But since I started using the Roku Stick it has perform extremely well all the times.
