    The Chromecast is a easy and convenient way to stream programming from any mobile device. It is my third one and I love it. Easy install and set-up, too.

    I was surprised how easy it was to set up and how consistently it casts and uncasts your browswer tabs. Works great with Netflix and just viewing web pages. I like the "screen saver" images.

    I love it. My computer and my wife's computer are both connected. One is a Mac and the other is Windows. Anything we watch using Chrome is "castable" It works great and is simple to use.

    Love this product, I bought two. I found I was using this more than my other streaming devices like Xbox or roku. Its faster and easier. Plus who needs another remote control to hunt for?

    We don't have cable, and the Chromecast makes it so that we don't even miss it! I love that I can stream anything I want, right to my TV! Anyone with a smart phone should have a Chromecast!

    I use this product every day. I used to have my PC hooked up to my tv but an accident killed my PC so this is a great way to use my TV to watch my favorite shows while I fix my computer.

    Great product. I can watch Netflix, Hulu, Hbo and Crunchyroll, and have a great variety of programs and movies. I already cancel cable and save 100+ dlls in 2 months. Worth every penny.

    The ChromeCast saved me from having to spend so much more money to buy a game system simply to watch the net on the TV. Easy, efficient and functional, everything I look for in technology.

    Not exactly what I thought

    I thought this product would let you throw your laptop or Android screen onto a TV but it only works for certain Chrome and Android-based apps. Being able to throw a YouTube video to the TV is fun but I was hoping to do so with a Microsoft Excel sheet or PowerPoint presentation to eliminate the wires. I hope that comes in a later version but at $35, I guess I may have been expecting too much. For what it is, it's a good product and I'm happy with it.

    The Chromecast is a nice little toy. That's about it. I bought it to play with and see how it works. My main issue with it is the lack of apps that work with it. It's pretty much only YouTube and Netflix, but the two work well. Streaming from a tab in Chrome has a little lag to it, but it's useable. The other drawback is the fact that it depends on another device (smartphone/tablet/computer) for actual content. If you have a game console or any internet ready player or TV, the Chromecast doesn't do anything they can't already do. Where the Chromecast comes in handy is when you have a TV that has no internet devices connected to it and you want to watch something on Netflix. The bottom line is it works well, but it really is nothing more than a neat little toy.

    Very convenient to watch Netflix on a TV without Blu-ray player. Love that I can also watch Youtube from my PC on the TV. Setup was very easy - slick method of connecting to my WiFi connection.

    This is a decent device for projecting info to your t.v. Though it has some series limitations I think with more patches come it will only get better.

    Anyone that is in the market for a TV should save their money and get one with out internet capabilities. Use the Google Chromecast instead of paying extra for the smartness. Great value.

    I LOVE this device so much that I purchased 2 of them, I get to see the apps I enjoy such as Google play and UFC Fight pass on my TV in HD and I use my iPhone or Ipad as the remote control.
