No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Amazon Devices Customer Support
Posted .Hello StacyW! I am so sorry you are having trouble with your volume and power controls not working properly. One thing you can do is ensure that the remote is configured properly with the device you are trying to control with it. You can do this by going to Settings>Equipment Control>Manage Devices and Equipment and then select the device/TV you are wanting it to control. If you do not see your TV listed then you can select Add Device from there and it will walk you through the steps. If you continue to have any additional issues with the functionality, I would recommend contacting Amazon Customer Support to troubleshoot further. I hope this helps rectify your issue and improve your experience and that you have a terrific day!
Vizio remote a loser.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned the fire stick because I had a Roku and realized I didn’t need it. The Vizio compatible remote didn’t work? Went and got a second one which also did not work, gave up and body universal Best Buy remote, which works perfectly
No, I would not recommend this to a friendSlow and Laggy Product
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Firesticks are always slow and laggy. Just buy an Apple TV or something similar. Roku is even 3x as responsive as a Firestick. Apple TV has been best so far.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendAmazon Fire TV Stick is a Battery Killer!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not buy this unless you also buy rechargeable batteries. This thing kills batteries very quickly. It is a known issue that is supposedly solved with a firmware update, but it the problem remains. I have already spent more on batteries than I paid for this unit. DO NOT BUY THIS.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendGet a higher version
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have an older 720p TV I use this on that I watch standard definition TV on. I didn't need the 4K version but I wish I would've bought that one instead. This version constantly freezes or delivers a scrambled picture. I have to unplug and plug it back in at least once a day. Such a hassle..

No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Amazon Devices Customer Support
Posted .Hi MercedezS, I am very sorry that your Fire TV Stick is not turning on. I would like to provide some potential troubleshooting to solve this.
1. Replace the batteries in your remote.
2. Use the power cable and adapter included with your Fire TV device. If you lose your Fire TV device power cable or adapter replace them with Amazon branded equipment to ensure compatibility.
3. Unplug the power cord from your device or wall outlet for several seconds then plug it back in.
4. Press the source or input button on your remote and ensure your TV input matches the name or number of the HDMI port your Fire TV is plugged into (often located on the back of your TV).
5. Use an HDMI cable rated for high speed (you can purchase this separately).
6. Unplug your Fire TV from your HDMI hub (if you're using one) and plug it directly into your TV's HDMI port. If these steps do not help and you are still disappointed with the device you can reach Amazon Customer service 24/7 for assistance at 1-888-280-4331. I hope this information helps, have a great day!
