    Unfortunately I am not able to have cable in my room, so I bought this for watching Netflix/hulu/YouTube in bed. It does just that, which is great. Really easy and quick set up. Only problem I have is the connection from time to time, which could be my wireless router, not the Chromecast.

    Works Great As Advertized but Laggy Mirroring

    Chrome Cast has really been a great way to cast my phone's apps and such to my Insignia HDTV. Youtube, CW app to watch shows and more has been good. However, the mirroring can be laggy and take a couple seconds sometimes to update when I mirror my computer. Mirroring the phone works faster than mirroring my computer, but it is still slower than other casting devices I have seen such as Apple T.V. Overall..awesome product

    Easy to set up. I use it whenever I need to show any content of my phone to other people on my TV. Also use it on the TV in my garage if I am working on something and want to still catch up on Netflix shows. Only complain would be all my pictures need to be uploaded on google drive in order to show them on the TV/monitor via chromecast.

    just a couple of issues. I wish the unit came with a user manual. I like to sit with the TV and go through the manual to learn the features and how do change different settings. Can't figure out how to change the font size on the Closed Captioning. I also have wireless headsets that worked fine on my old std tv. On this one I get nothing and can't find out why. (I know that Plasma sets have an issue but this is an led set.)

    Can't beat it for the price! I gave it 4 stars because I wish it worked with more apps. However, that said, it's great with the one's it does work with. Easy to hook up. Easy to use. The only other problem is I have it on my bedroom tv and I have to unplug it at night because it lights up.

    Simple device for watching streaming TV

    The kids went to college and I saw no point in paying a yearly fee for Internet access for the Xbox. I don't play online games and I already subscribe to Netflix. Paying Microsoft's fee seemed redundant. The ChromeCast is easy to setup (but then I AM a computer tech) and use. I like the fact that you use your smart phone to control it rather than another remote control on the coffee table. It may take a little getting used to for some people. It's design is very different, but I think the technology it uses is the future of TV. You can't watch DVDs with it - but who does THAT anymore? You can watch movies you share on a computer - which is new since I bought it - but I haven't used it. I've never been interested in having a library of movies. I just want to watch stuff.

    It's easy to set up. It works well, occasionally stuttering, but that's due to my WiFi. Very inexpensive, and tiny footprint.
