    Great product and smooth transition on the screen. Took one star due to the storage capability as it compares to TIVO which has more Storage Space.

    I’ve tried them all. From Roku to TiVo to cables version of TiVo. This is, by far, the best. It catalogs the movies your own through different providers and organize them by genre and makes suggestions. The only minor hiccup? sometimes it can’t see my wireless network when every other device can. Usually requires a restart.

      Hi Lenny, thanks for sharing your feedback with us about your experience with using the Chromecast with Google TV. We’re glad to hear that you find it the best streaming device you’ve tried, and we’re sorry that it sometimes can’t see your Wi-Fi network.

      There could be several reasons that can affect the performance and connectivity of your Chromecast and we’d like to rule out the possibility of your Wi-Fi connection being the cause of this issue. If you're willing, we suggest trying the simple steps below:

      - Check for possible interference. Appliances like your microwave oven, refrigerator or even your neighbors Wi-Fi network may cause interference with your Chromecast.
      - Check for possible congestion. Removing some of your connected devices may help relieve some bandwidth space and you may check if your experience will improve.
      - Ensure that your Chromecast is in a line of sight with your Wi-Fi router to get the best signal strength and Wi-Fi coverage.
      - Restart your router, mobile phone and Chromecast.
      - Try to reset your Chromecast by following this step by step guide here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6254654

      If additional assistance is still required after trying the simple steps above, please reach out to our support team here: https://support.google.com/chromecast/gethelp madebygoogle

    It is fast, small, clean and just works. Within a few minutes of plugging the little dongle to the back of your TV, you will be watching media from everywhere you can hope to find movies, TV and internet programming. With 4K support and being easily hidden away at the back of any media setup, the Chromecast with Google TV does feel the ideal device for new people wanting to jump into the world of streaming.
