Began malfunctioning after 6 weeks. Constantly loses video and audio output. Has to be rebooted every time the TV is turned on and every time the device wakes from sleep. I have to reboot the device several times a day. Really sorry I bought this.

Hi Boris, thanks for taking a moment to share with us. We'd like to offer a few suggestions to offer that may help!
First, check for the latest update under your Settings menu to ensure that you are on the newest software version. Once updated, be sure to restart your device.
You may want to double-check your signal strength as well as network connectivity can cause some of the issues you described. On your Roku, go to Settings > Network > Check connection. This will test the quality of the signal and also measure the speed of that connection, to be sure that your signal is strong enough. If you're looking to increase your connectivity, we have a helpful FAQ article: https://support.roku.com/article/213122277.
We hope this helps! Roku Customer Advocate

After numerous attempts including resets on the main unit, batteries removed and reinserted, pushing the button for 5 seconds, blinking green light on the remote, the initial setup will NOT pair the remote with the main unit. Garbage waste of time.

Hi Emilee, we're sorry to hear about your troubles and we're here to help!
It's possible that the software update was not completed and therefore, the player is getting locked up. We have a few tips that might help get you back to streaming!
Hi there, thanks for taking a few moments to share these details with us. It sounds like you've tried multiple troubleshooting options and the outcome does not sound like typical behavior.
When trying to perform a factory reset on the Roku device, please make sure that you hold down the reset button for at least 30 seconds regardless of what is happening on the screen. In addition, we highly recommend making sure that the device is plugged into a wall outlet and not powered by the TV USB port. You may also want to try utilizing a different HDMI port to see if that makes a difference.
We always suggest using the included power cord, power adapter, and premium high speed HDMI cable from Roku for the best end experience.
We hope this helps to get you back up and streaming! Roku Customer Advocate

Purchase was fine BUT the delivery/install part was a nightmare. Maybe not the fault of Best Buy but you contract with the service provider so you should be aware of their issues and make the appropriate corrections.

The remote does not work. I tried the batteries that came with it and I tried a second set of batteries, still would not work. I normally would recommend roku, but not on this purchase.

SUCKS! not enough power from extension cord told to use wall outlet. Gimme a break! Make a power cord on the Roku that is effective!!!!! I have a TCL-Roku TV so it is not biased criticism.

Hello, this is certainly not the kind of experience we'd hope for you to have and we're here to help!
First, always be sure to use the HDMI cable and power cord cable that came included with your player as not all cables are created equally.
The Roku Express 4K+ is designed to work work with any television with an HDMI connection. If you haven't already tried multiple HDMI ports on the TV, we'd also recommend trying a different TV in an attempt to isolate the issue.
We hope that this gets you up and streaming soon! Roku Customer Advocate

I’m tired of the junk they out out.

Hi there, this does not sound like expected behavior and we are here to help.
We'd recommend trying a different TV to see if the behavior continues. Additionally, the device can be plugged into your TV's USB port for power or a wall outlet. If you're currently using the TV as your power source, try plugging the device into a wall outlet instead.
Lastly, please check for the latest update under your Settings menu to ensure that you are on the newest software version. Once updated, be sure to restart your device.
We hope this helps! Roku Customer Advocate

I purchased this so I could stream YouTube Live TV only to find that this service was unavailable on Roku, apparently because of a dispute between the parties. I returned it.
