Awesome!! Totally Satisfied!

I'm a cheapskate at heart, and it wasn't easy for me to spend $99 on a stream box...but I'd already purchased one for another TV a while back that retailed for $49 and I wasn't really very happy with it. It wasn't responsive and took a long time to load shows on Netflix.
So I made the plunge and bought the new Roku. WOW WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Lightning fast response from the remote, and loading speeds seem 10x faster.
If you're on the fence...go for it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great to use and has so many avenues for movies and tv shows. Cant wait to see more television additions. Love the shows Revolution and Arrow.. Seems like there is a commitment to getting shows to the viewer at a reasonable time.

After having the Roku3 for a couple of weeks, I bought a Roku1 for another tv. Truly enjoy them. I watch more tv through the Roku channels than I do on Directv which I'm going to discontinue when the contract expires. I recommended it to my sister and she now has one also. I originally wanted one so I could access AcornTV. Now I watch other channel offerings also.

This is one of the greatest purchases I've made in a long time. It's so easy to set up and use. All of my favorite online streaming channels are available....even the ones that I didn't expect! There are so many channels to chose from and they have very user friendly interfaces. So awesome!

Not sure what's the fuss
on February 9, 2014

I bought this roku 3 a tried it for a few day but don't see why it's any better than the hdmi cord i have connecting to my movie laptop and my lenovo computer remote. I thought I would get a lot of extra channels that I would want. Fox news for example. It's just a few pieces from Fox news that I can stream anyway. There are a lot of channels that you wouldn't want. Kind of like the cable channels that you never watch. Sent it back but maybe I missed something.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am so happy that I received the Roku for Christmas. I am enjoying all that is available through the many different programs offered. And I'm saving money with a much smaller package from my satelite providor.

Lower cable bill for me!

I purchased the Roku about a month ago and for the most part really like it. I purchased it after having my cable bill rise sharply after promotions expired. We are at the point in my family where we don't watch a lot of television and only watch a handful of channels. I no longer want to pay for 500 channels when 10 is more than enough! I was pleasantly surprised to get my bill and it was $75 lower. :))))))
Say all that, I do miss the ease of flipping through the channels. I suspect that I will get better at switching through channels and programs as I get more familiar with the process. My kids already seem to have it down! My ONLY complaint about the Roku so far is that I don't like the method of entering search terms--scrolling through the alphabet to spell is very tedious. I get that one of the selling features of the Roku is the simplicity of design. I would prefer the option to upgrade to a full keyboard on the remote--much like texting on a phone. Hopefully Roku will add this feature in the future...I would gladly pay for a new remote to be able to type rather than scroll...o...n...e...l...e...t...t...e...r...a...t...a...t...i...m...e...
