I like the roku. There's some glitches with the apps. The remote worked for the fist hour then it stopped working. I couldn't get it to work. Changed batteries and reset it. Troubleshoot it and followed some directions. I have to use the app remote
My Roku Streaming Stick provides a convenient and versatile path to access of very good video at many possible sites. We have 2 in fact, 1 for each TV, for the added convenience and to take care of our household's disparate tastes in videos.
The Roku stick is ok, nothing exceptional about it. I wouldnt recommend this product for streaming. Look for something that has a processor. The price is pretty cheap, which is nice, but I would suggest paying more for a faster product.
I am a "Cord Cutter". I have been since Oct 2012. And I, currently, own 4 Roku's...LT, XS, 3, & Stick. I love them all! I love the Roku Stick for it's portability. I take it whenever I travel.
I purchased my Roku streaming stack a few weeks ago. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I have found that I have to take the batteries in and out and replace batteries sometime in order for it to work~ very frustrating. I'm considering returning it to see if another streaming stick would work better ?
Fully enjoy this, when it works properly. As other reviews have stated, it seems to continually freeze up, requiring to either restart it or remove the batteries from the remote and reinstall before getting any response. Oh, and it eats through batteries like crazy. Be prepared to either use rechargeable batteries or buy them in bulk if you buy this product.
