||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the fourth one I’ve purchased. All in all it’s great, a little buggy at times but super easy to use and install, especially if you have a lot of Google products.

Posted .Hi Sarita, thanks for investing high on Google products, and for sharing your feedback with us about the Chromecast with Google TV. We’re glad that you find it easy to use and install, but are sorry to hear that it’s a little buggy at times.
We suggest clearing the app cache that might help as having a sizable amount of cache stored, would affect its performance. Here’s how:
- From the Google TV home screen, in the top right, go to the user profile icon and select Settings.
- Select Apps and choose the app you're having trouble with.
- If you can't find it, select See all apps.
- Select Clear cache and then Ok.
- If clearing the app cache didn't work, you can try to reset your Chromecast with Google TV by following the steps here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6254654
If the issue still persists, we’d be happy to have a closer look and guide you with further troubleshooting. You can communicate with our dedicated team through our support channels anytime at: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp
Great value

I would recommend this to a friendSo much better than Apple
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ended up replacing an Apple TV with this device. Considering it's a fraction of the cost, it's so much more usable than the Apple TV.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat product
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. Love the interface, just google needs to work on honing the software to match Apple TV’s robust features. However, for the price this a great product and I highly recommend.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a gift for my mother-in-law as she has an older TV that does not have streaming apps. She decided to cut the cable cord and this was a perfect solution.

I would recommend this to a friendGreat step up from CCU
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Should've come with more storage and an ethernet adapter, but still a great upgrade to the standard chromecast. If you don't need 4k, there's rumors of a lower-spec one on the way.
I would recommend this to a friendWanted to like it more than I do...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decided on this over a competing product from another manufacturer as I had hoped integrating it with my existing Google Home setup would be easier. While setup was a breeze, I've been having some annoying issues. First, I've connected this directly to my soundbar, which it passes through to my TV. This causes some issues where the soundbar volume continues to display on and off in the top right corner of the TV until completely powered off and back on. This issue did not exist prior to purchasing the Chromecast with Google TV. Second, voice activation of just about anything seems intermittent at best. I'll often say, "hey Google! Open Netflix on the living room TV," and it will say it cannot find the device, etc. The same phrase repeated activates the TV. Occasionally, it will say it has turned it on, but the screen is still black. This may seem trivial to some but why even attempt this kind of technology if it doesn't work the majority of the time? Finally, I was intrigued by the idea of the Chromecast acting as a hub for all of my streaming services and keeping track of shows I was enjoying. This doesn't seem to work with every streaming service, nor does it always remember where I am in a show I'm watching. In the end, I usually end up opening the streaming service directly to get back to my shows. This isn't a huge deal on it's own; it's how I'd normally interact with those services, but one of the reasons I bought this device was for the ability to track everything from one screen. All told, I'm only disappointed with this device as I wonder if the higher-priced competitor would have been a better buy. I can't argue with the value proposition here, and at least Google is a large enough company that I assume they'll try to iron these kinks out...

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great device, easy to program and works well. My only complaint is the tiny slick remote can be cumbersome to use.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat for travel.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this for travel and it’s a life saver just log into everything at home and then when I get to a hotel connect it to either my phone or wifi and everything there. Only problem is you need to find an outlet but always one near the TV.
