Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love it! Solved my streaming video problem. No muss,no fuss! Easy set up and reasonable cost.

I am in love with my Chromecast. With the ability to stream anything from a Chrome browser, Google has indeed taken over!

If you don't have a smart tv but would like all the features this is what you are looking for. You will need a smart phone like android or iPhone to control it though.

The Chromecast is a pretty good device. It is not really family friendly like a Roku. I have tried it with a PC laptop, Doid phone, iPhone, and iPad and it works good with all of them. Set up is farily easy and it creates a wireleless hotspot to do it. After set up is it connected to your regular wifi. I hope to use it while traveling in hotel rooms. Glenn

Bought a chromecast with a chromebook which a allowed me to stream websites to my tv which is cool...It seems to be faster than my blu Ray player apps so that's a plus.

We have enjoyed watching YouTube or just looking up things on Chrome with our Chromecast. My husband is just amazed at the technology.

I bought this for my son and granddaughter to use as they didn't have cable TV for a while. My son has a LOW tolerance for electronic things and will refuse to use them if they're complicated. This item was a dream to get started and basic enough that a 5 year old could operate it. It did help that my son has a Nexus tablet to command the videos with, but overall a very worthwhile purchase and they absolutely love it!

I use this mainly with my Samsung Galaxy S5 Active. I can cast movies from the phone to my TV and enjoy a reliable cast as long as my WiFi puts out a strong signal.

I like this device for short time, but in a line run I don't recommend it because you always need to use your device to make it work.

This is my second chrome cast that I have purchased and I love them both! You never have to worry about loosing a remote because it is your phone iPad or computer!

If you are used to the simplicity of use of an apple TV this is a piece of junk. However, for a third of the price and if you own an android tablet or phone, might be your solution to TV interface; whatever the case cannot work as a standalone device (requires a phone, tablet or computer to control). Focused to work for google applications (chrome, youtube, etc) and google "standards" aware sites. Therefore half the stars.

This is a product that is easy to use and has great quality. However, there are some issues when I use my phone. It gets a little buggy when I use the netflix app. The little Chromecast icon says I'm connected then it cuts the connection. Luckily Google has automatic updates so, I'm sure, over time, these issues will be resolved. Plus a great price.

Fun watching YouTube and other excellent TV sites on my big screen and with digital sound. Way better than paying for dish or cable.

The Chromecast is a great idea with a great future at a great price. Right now the capabilities are just too limited of what it can cast to. For the best results, you need a PC running with Google Chrome and it will just shoot that website/video/music to your Chromecast/TV. In summary, it works great to stream from a PC but does not work good without a PC.

Had trouble setting up. But once set up liked it Sometimes looses Internet and have to reset

It was a quality purchase and good for the price, if you want to play YouTube videos on your TV this is a great purchase to make !!!

This is a fantastic device that not only supplements your own existing entertainment hardware, but is available at a price point which makes it an attractive gift for just about anyone. It's easy to set up, easy to use, and is continually updated/supported by more and more applications. If I had to choose only one device to plug into my TV, this would be it; over my HTPC, Xboxen, or even a cable/satellite box.

The Chromecast allows video to be streamed from a variety of websites directly to our TV. It shows Hulu Plus perfectly, with control from my iPad. It shows websites from a browser on a computer, which is somewhat clunky, depending on how much data that website is using. It can show pictures from a mobile device, with some hiccups regarding orientation. Frankly, the streaming of Hulu Plus made this worth it for us.

We love it, but could be easier to use. Also didn't get a chance to use the free Google Play. Maybe they can extend it in the future.

Got this to try it out, and now am getting one for each of my TVs! It is very user friendly and is a great purchase for people who watch netflix. Downside- it sometimes goes offline, or my iPhone doesn't connect, have to reset it which is frustrating when your in the middle of a show or movie. This hasn't happened so often that I won't use it though.
