    The chromecast is a great device (good enough that I purchased two of them) and the price is unbeatable. The only problem is that it is a bit unfinished. Apps with built on support for chromecast work almost flawlessly but that list is still relatively small. Now, they have just recently started addibd screen sharing to a limited set of phones and tablets and this feature is a mixed bag. Sometimes I can use this feature and have no issues other times there are frequent stutters and freezes and at times!the device will just quit casting. If the app has the feature its the prefered way to go. At a higher price these flaws would be unacceptable but given what you pay its not too bad.

    The product works efficiently. The picture quality comes through well. The down factor is the limited amount of apps that work with the ChromeCast. Hopefully that will be changing in the near future.

    Installation was very easy plug and play, very easy setup logging onto WIFI. I like to have the ability to stream from my phone, home computer or a laptop using apps and Google Chrome. Going to buy a second for another TV in the house.

    For the price this is a great product. I can now easily play hbo go and netflix on my phone, and then watch it on the TV. Overall the content that is supported by chromecast is limited at this point.

    I use my Chromecast all the time for Pandora Radio and Netflix and it works flawlessly! It's also great because it's sold at such a low price but opens up so many options for living room entertainment! Definitely recommend this product !

    We have now put a chromecast on all 3 tvs in our home. It's great for having the option to stream Netflix (or anything through the Google browser) from the laptop, tablet, or even phone. I can watch everything I want for hundreds of dollars less than buying actual internet tvs. The only problem we've run into is that if our laptop is trying to stream a video that isn't very strong and needs to buffer a lot, the chromecast will think the signal stopped and shut itself down. It's a simple one button push to get it back up, but it's still annoying.

    This is a good device to have if you do a lot of streaming. Anything on your phone can be cast straight to your tv. The only negative I have with this device is that it is not truly wireless as it needs to be plugged in for power. Future versions should come with a internal battery that is rechargeable.
