    I wanted to stream videos on my TV and did not want to connect my lappy using the HDMI cable, as it would hinder my work. Chrome cast is an awesome way to do it. Works well with many Apps and its amazing with the ChromeCast Casting App where you can cast the whole web page. Loving the product....!!!!

    I seriously don't feel a lack of apps. I have a PS3 that I used to use for streaming Netflix, but this is faster, easier and it turns on the tv for me. When I'm home alone I blast my music all over the house rather than carry my phone around in my pocket while I play with the dogs which was dangerous to the phone! So Chromecast has made life easier. If only it also turned the tv off!

    I found this to be a very good product to put in the spare bedrooms. Although, I find Apple TV to be easier to use.

    I travel often, this gives me the opportunity to watch shows that I have recorded via my tablet. The set up was very easy; however, I have had one instance where an extension cord was needed to power the device. The ones around the television in the hotel were all being used. Great device that I would highly recommend.

    The chromecast is an awesome addition to any house. It is cheap enough to simply try out. Only works with limited apps for now but Google is working on more apps that the chromecast will work on. I use it to stream Netflix from my Nexus 7 to my TV. Clear 1080p HD. Looks better than some TV stations. Great pick up at 35 bucks.

    This product is amazing. You can send videos straight to any TV one is hooked up to from things like Netflix and Hulu or YouTube. More and more apps are being added to the list of compatibility. They have options to even send videos from your phone to the TV however these are glitchy at times. Google is working on fixing that and more developers are being added. A definite must.

    i bought this Google Chromecast (1st. Gen) last year. It is very simple to install connecting it to a HDMI port, and to configure the WiFi access. With this device you will convert your standard LCD TV in a Smart TV, accessing to your preferred internet content, like Netflix. You can also mirror your smartphone screen to your TV. Very recomendable.

    You can watch videos, courses from Coursera, comedy central without ads... and the list goes on... if you have a smartphone, this is a no brainer.

    Overall I like this device. It allows me to close my computer or continue working while allowing me to broadcast youtube videos. I haven't been able to set it up on multiple devices (such as iphone, ipad). The support experience around this was pathetic. I am able to seamlessly broadcast this from my mac with relative ease.
