    This is a great streaming device that attaches to the HDMI on the back of the tv that is both easy to set up and easy to use. I can even screencast my phone on to my big screen tv.

    This is a great device and I use it often for travel as well. I bought a second just to bring with so I wouldn't have to unplug from my main tv

    This projects to my TV well and it is easy to set up. But it can't get my kids to behave, nor work with mind control (except from my 83 year old mother in law - for her, EVERYTHING works with mind control). Anyways, this this is awesome except I gotta plug it in. You don't see that in the ads.

    This is my third Chromecast, I own one almost since Google launched a while ago even when it was just a hand full of apps available, definitely a really good product for the price.

    I like the product overall, because it's an easy way to watch youtube or netflix on a tv. I don't like that it needs to be powered by a wall outlet if your tv doesn't have a USB port. Other than that, once more apps are available to cast with it, it will be a lot better, but even to have something that can play netflix on any tv and is portable for only $35 is pretty awesome.

    Depending on WiFi strength this product will not be able to stream efficiently. Otherwise, I love the product and it is easy to install and use.

    I purchased to be able to use it to send my PC to my TV and found that it had limitations with what it would send. I ended up returning it to the store because it didn't do what I needed it to do. If they add more functionality I might re-purchase it again in the future. I saw other reviews that said it was difficult to install and use but I found it to be very quick and easy.

    Surprisingly Easy to install

    I bought this product to allow my HDTV to do some things that Smart TVs can do... Installation was a snap... usage a bit harder since I don't use it as much as I probably should, but with patience with the at times slow Chrome Browser readiness I'm fine. I can play YouTube videos with no problem after it is ready but I am disappointed that I cannot view my personally photos I have stored on my PC... although there may be a way I have yet to figure out. For Internet video viewing this seems ideal. I recommend it to those without a Smart TV.

    Very interesting gadget to use you TV as a screen for Google apps and some other streaming media. You can keep using your device or laptop with other activities while streaming.

    This is our 2nd Chromecast. We liked the one on our living room TV so much that we bought another one for the bedroom. Between Netflix & Youtube, we don't even need cable anymore.

    This product is economical and easy to install and use. It provides access to a whole new world of TV programming. It may make the need to buy premium movie channels redundant.

    Chromecast makes any TV a smart TV for $35! Use your phone, tablet or computer as the remote control. You can nearly everything out there on your TV. HDMI required, wi-fi required

    Wanted to find something that would “mirror” my tablet to my TV. The folks at Best Buy recommended that this might work for me….and if it did not I could return it no questions asked. The unit was easy to install and worked well however, it was not compatible with my tablet so I had to return the product. There was not any issues when I returned the item to Best Buy.

    Turn your TV into a smart TV for only $35. Works and performs well but you really need to be in the Android universe to make it work its best.
