It works

This device works as advertised. We wanted to have access to Netflix, Hulu, PBS and some other channels. It lets us do that without being overly complicated to set up or operate. Once in a great while it seems to go out, but then all you have to do is unplug the power cord, wait a minute, re-plug and it goes back to work. Can't ask for more than that. We are considering getting another for our upstairs TV viewing when we buy our next TV.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It works well, and I use the ear phone jack all the time so I won't disturb my wife when I'm watching a war movie.

I started off with a roku sx and it performed flaky at best. the device was then upgraded to the roku 3 which has performed better but still reboots on its own at times. I think the code need to be improved to make the device more stable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

faster then the older models and lots of channels, the one thing that I don't like is there are too many channels that you have to sign-in using your cable provider to watch............isn't the whole idea to lose the cable ???, so if you don't have cable you wont be watching that show or channel. everything else about the roku3 I love especially the headphone jack for those movies with poor sound quality, plug in my headphones and I can hear "everything".

We love our Roku's (all 4)

We got rid of cable over a year ago, we bought our first Roku 18 months ago and found we were not watching cable over using our roku. We have accounts with Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Prime, and all our movies on Vudu. Hands down this is the best thing since sliced bread!
Even with 4 in the house, we have no problem running them all at the same time.
SO EASY to set up! A first grader can do it. Plug it into your tv, power it up, enter your wireless network password and your good to go...you add only the channels you want to watch and delete the channels you don't.
However, some of the channels require you to have a password from your cable provider, some require you to pay monthly. But don't let that stop you, there are so many FREE CHANNELS you won't miss having cable one bit!!

Learning to Love it

I've had mine for a couple of months and am still getting used to it. It's so different than the immediate access of TV, but it's not hard to use. Some stations require additional setup, so having a tablet is handy. Unfortunately my cable company doesn't support sharing of most of the content I wanted, but I'm finding other uses. I especially like the I Heart Radio - listening to comedy in the morning is so much better than the news!

I have purchased many a Rokus as gifts for family members, but this is the first one I purchased for our household. What can I say, I LOVE this product. Compact and full of content. We do not have a cable/satellite subscription. All we have is a strong outdoor HD Antenna & subscriptions to streaming services: Netflix, Hulu Plus & Amazon. With these combinations & a Roku, who needs cable!
I would recommend this to a friend!
