This has been a great product for us. We dumped Direct TV to save money. With this product we were able to bring up channels we had before without extra out and a couple with just minimal cost. We are still saving over $100 a month. This product works well, the only problem we had was it would not fit into HDMI slots on our older Samsung tv as it was about half inch to long...it fit our other tv. We will be getting new smart tv soon and will remember to check the placement of slots.
Other then oNE short fall of slots, this product works well and we enjoy all the pri ate and hidden channels. We have alot to discover and watch for a long time. Thank you for a great deal!
I have become more and more disillusioned with network television. I was so glad a friend told me about Roku. Now I can watch the things I love, especially foreign, independent and documentary films.
I use 3 Roku devices and this model does not perform as well as the other 2 (slow or incapable of loading) The remote play back freezes so frequently that I hesitate to use it. Also. The length of the stick makes it impossible to fit it to my wall mounted flat screen.
Had issues setting up, but now works fine. Doesn't offer too much out of the ordinary, but it's worth the price paid. Use mostly for Sling TV, which has some issues, but those are not the fault of Roku.
I got the stick free with my 3 month purchase of sling tv. We have a roku one and wanted to use the stick in the computer room and it works great. I havent had any trouble with it or the remote.
I bought three streaming stick so we could cut cable. Of the three sticks two work great. The third stick freezes up and has to be rebooted. It's obviously a defective unit. Aside from that problem, I love Roku. I also have an Amazon Fire stick and wish I did not buy it. Roku is far easier to use.
