I have had Roku just over one month now, I enjoy being able to watch many iof the shows I do not get to see due to a tight schedule I am usually on. Roku lets me access shows when it is convenient for me to watch TV
My son has been telling me about streaming for several years. I didn't know how much fun I would have with the Roku and what a vast selection of programs I would find to steam. The picture is beautifully clear and the product is very easy to install and use.
I was not completely happy with my streaming stick. Although I did like the easy assesability to all the different apps. It was a suprise to see all the free app content available. However, I had setup issues with the instruction manuel. The intruction manuel said there was a reset button on the stick that I probably never use but did not say anywhere I could find about a tiny reset button inside the battery compartment ,of all places, that had to be pressed as well to sync the remote with the stick. After a lot of grief and frustration my daughter came over and figured it out for me only because she watched her husband set one up on another TV. Finally after getting it setup and apps downloaded, It would freeze up from time to time while navigating thru the apps. No matter how much restting I done would not help. Finally, I removed one of the batteries and it reset itself. I would probaly go with a higher end model nexr time.
I bought this about a month ago so I could watch tv in my bedroom and have been extremely happy. It is easy to use and very portable. I can move it to another tv if needed and can take it with me when I travel
This is our second Roku Stick. This is the future of television. We watch streaming programs every night. Having the programs follow one after another without commercials makes us very very very happy! We have watched every program on three series so far.
I got this to use on the 2nd tv in our bedroom. Comparing it to our Roku3, the interface is slower to respond, the remote is not as well made, but once you navigate to what you want to watch, it seemed to work well.
