    I have always used Roku devices for all my televisions in my home! They are easy and convenient to install and use. I had to upgrade to a newer version only because the older ones didn’t have all the newer apps I needed. A great product at a great price!

    I hadn’t had internet in a long time, and still don’t have cable. I was able to afford internet finally and bought this to supplement my over-the-air TV. The Roku is a great way to access TV shows over the internet. Set up is easy. You do need to have a Wi-Fi connection on your internet in order to use this model, and none of the Roku’s come with an HDMI cable to connect to your TV so be sure to get one. The Roku will pick up your slowest WiFi signal (my wifi unit broadcasts two signals) automatically. If there’s a way to get it to choose the faster one I haven’t figured out how. There is a unit which costs more that you can set up with a direct corded connection. I have that too, but haven’t hooked it up. The best part is the remote. There’s this little piece of fabric sticking out the bottom with the Roku insignia on it. At first you might think its a waste and try to cut it off, but it really helps determine which side is up in the dark (the remote does not light up). Leave it on, you’ll be glad you did!

    I wanted to watch CW shows from App on my TV and this worked great. I am able access more streaming services to watch movies for free. The Roku is small and easy to set up. I like that it does not take up much space and is very fast to stream shows with no lag or choppiness. The price is great too as it was the cheapest available one in my area to pick up from Best Buy, compared to the more expensive models. This one is perfect for basic / light use to stream movies and TV shows.

    Before we bought the Roku, we did most of our streaming via apps on a game system or a disk player. Some of those were not updating any longer. This has simplified things. It's so small!
