I have a Westinghouse Roku TV and the audio was horrible coming from the TV, especially since it's mounted on the wall and we sit at least 12' away on the couch. I wanted to get a soundbar that had enough beef to give sound to the whole room. The Roku Smart Soundbar did just that. I can now hear and make out what the voices are saying on the TV. The sound is no longer muffled. The quality is more clear, without just "having the TV louder." The soundbar also doubles as a Roku device, so if you don't already have a Roku installed on your TV, this is double great! But rest assured, it will still work even if you already have a Roku installed.

Needed to purchase a Roku for another TV and when at the store to purchase saw the Sound Bar which included the Roku and solved the no Roku problem on the other TV. Simple to set up and use.

While it was not seamless to set up, I got Roku support on the phone without much wait and they were able to get me up and running. Very pleased with the sound and overall integration with Roku channels.

Great soundbar! Easy to set up and gives great virtual surround sound. Would highly recommend it! I use it for my backyard patio and don't have any issues with sound.

If you were in the same boat as us and your Roku player was no longer supported, couldn't stream some channels and didn't match the resolution of your TV, you should consider this soundbar as a replacement. I was concerned since this was the first Roku sound bar but was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality. There are minimal sound controls but we found they were fine out of the box. We had an opportunity to get the matching subwoofer, and wow, do they make a great pair. I am happy with the balance of the sound and would recommend this to anyone but an audiophile. Easy setup and now we only need one remote to control everything. Love the mute button on the remote.

Sound is fantastic and way better than any TV speakers. Set up is dead simple. It was up and running in less than 10 minutes. I haven't cranked it yet but so far everything I hear is phenomenal.

Easy to set up and use. A great option for someone with a older TV that does not have built in streaming . Sound is also as good as most comparably priced sound bars .

This sound bar is great, especially with a built in roku player. It is so easy to set-up.
To really make it pop, buy the roku subwoofer & roku wireless speaker that goes on the wall.

Believe Roku lacks some compatibility with the Sony 930e tv. Returned in less than 14 days. Ended up going with Fire Stick. Would not recommend this bar if you have a Sony 930e. If your tv is compatible with Roku, its a good sound bar.

Got this (with the subwoofer) for a TV. The speakers blew out, but it still had an awesome picture, so didn’t want to discard it. Very satisfied with the purchase & the sound.

Good sound and I like the Roku integration. It didn't have an RCA jack auxiliary input like my old sound bar. The response to changing tv volume with the remote is sluggish.

Very happy with this purchase. We just recently dumped our cable company, and this sound bar was a great way to change our older Samsung tv into a media center. Great sound, especially for the price.

Speaking technically.....WOW! This sound bar gets a big 10 from me. I replaced one that was supposed to have "hearing aid" technology, no comparison. The sound is clear and understandable even when spoken softly. The price was great and the little side add of having Roku as part of the package......well all I can say again is WOW! I'm loving this. I am using this on a second TV but if I didn't have a pretty good set up on my primary set, I would probably have one on it as well. Added the sub-woofer for extra bass.

Sounds like you're in the movie! Got the subwoofer and surround sound speakers to go with it, all were easy to pair to each other and to the TV. Good sound quality and it's nice to have the Roku features easily accessible. Not a huge fan of Roku advertising itself through the platform, but other than that it's a nice interface. 3 stars because sometimes there's a glitch with certain apps, specifically Disney+ and Hulu, where the sound cuts out, then the picture freezes, and the system reboots itself. After it reboots everything is fine again.

Hi there, thanks so much for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear that your loving the product overall.
We'd like to learn more about the audio drop and rebooting that you mentioned as this is not considered normal behavior. The next time this occurs, we recommend capturing a tracker ID and sending this to our support team so that we can investigate.
Once the device reboots, press your Home button 5 times followed by the back button 5 times. This will produce an on-screen message with a tracker ID. Take a photo of this on-screen message and email it to [email protected]. Be sure to mention this review and your player's device ID, too.
Thanks! Roku Customer Advocate

Excellent support from Winston who worked with me and my price range to identify what was available and though not in stock I had the Roku 2.0 2 days later and $30 less due to change in price that same day. Universal mounting kit I purchased through Amazon (none in stock that day) was a bit of a pain to mount the bar however nothing to do with Best Buy. Best Buy previously mounted our brand new Vizio 65" directly to our wall and it is perfectly mounted. FYI, need for a soundbar became apparent as the built in Vizio speakers are sadly horrible.

With one simple remote control I can now operate my TV, Roku, and this soundbar. I tried the Roku Streambar first and ultimately settled on the Soundbar which offers very good sound quality.
