    Roku is Awesome-makes old TV seem like "smart TV"

    Love Roku interface. Love that this (very inexpensive model) looks the same as my Roku TV, and the more expensive 4k version that I use in my theater room. I chose this version because my kids go a "hand me down" flat screen TV that was a "cheap" TV we used in our old RV. The Roku enables us to use some of our favorite streaming services like Netflix, Pandora Music, Disney and CW TV (to name a few). I have purchased the version or another Roku Streming device on every non Smart TV in my house, and all the TVs at my parents' house.....highly recommend Roku!

    We decided to get this Roku device to hookup to our older television. It was a great value, easy to set up, and was also easy to get programmed to work with our existing Harmony remote.

    Needed to upgrade an older Roku Express and this is working great. The older Roku wouldn't work with Peacock and this one does. It also seems faster.

    • Brand response from Roku Team
      Posted .

      Hi Phyllis, we appreciate you choosing our products and sharing your thoughts with us. Please be advised that some devices come equipped with a Simple Remote. These lack TV controls (Power and Volume), so you must use your TV remote to control these functions. The current line of new Roku devices is limited to the Roku Express HD. In addition, in Roku model releases, the non-plus(+) models are generally equipped with a simple remote. However, if you wish to have functional access to your TV's power and volume buttons using the Roku remote, we recommend the Roku Voice remote. You can refer to this link to compare the remote features at https://www.roku.com/products/accessories/compare. If you have any future inquiries or need assistance, please get in touch with us through our website at https://support.roku.com/contactus.
      Happy Streaming!
      Elmer, Roku Customer Advocate roku
