    This was an experiment on our part and it worked great. In our business being open and transparent is everything and this allows us to be open and transparent with every guest. It also allows our employees to be mobile and use any of our larger display monitors as presentation screens. It was a great idea from IT Department, very economical, and works great.

    I bought this right after Thanksgiving. It was easy to set up and has since worked great using both my phone (S4) and tablet (Tab Pro).

    I bought this with a little skepticism but ended up loving it!! It works on my tv where I couldn't get that great of a signal and was always losing signals and freezing up my Netflix. I was worried with the 3 step installation as it didn't look complicated AND it wasnt. It really was that simple!! I recommend this to anyone that is thinking about it.

    Although the set up is a little rough to get done, This thing is amazing! I have cranked up my YouTube and Netflix use over my DVR since I installed this little guy. Now I also have a Roku 3 and I love it too, but this guys is great for one special reason. It makes my cellphone the remote controller, even the sound. I am thinking that I need at least one more!

    I thought this would be like my Roku. From the limited time I tried to play with this, the only thing that came to mind was this is a YouTube streaming device. I don't have any of the paid services such as netflix, So I found this very limited. Even trying to stream anything HD from YouTube was choppy and un watchable. It's probably decent for some, Just not for me.

    The Chromecast can be set up in less than 5 minutes after following the on screen prompts. It streams content in beautiful HD format using either Chrome or one of the few apps that can be downloaded to a PC or Ipad. Only complaint is I wish it could stream any PC video but overall is a great value!

    Chromecast has many applications iphone and android, I just like it because i don't have to pay for Comcast HD receiver, just got a Hulu plan and can now watch tv shows in amazing quality. Of course you can always mirror your desktop with Google Chrome and play HD movies within Chrome straight on your TV. Now I have two Chromecasts at home, love them.

    I had a lot of issues connecting anything to Chromecast. Mind you, I have Comcast with very high speed internet and even with that it gives me trouble sometimes. On good days it will connect to either my phone or tablet after 30 attempts. On bad days it won't connect at all. Very disapointing.

    I bought the Chrome Cast at the suggestion of a friend. The install was easy. Now I can watch Netflix, HBO Go and even movies from my Popcorn Time andriod phone app all on my big screen TV. I even took my Chrome Cast to watch movies in my hotel room when I went on vacation. Great alternative to paying extra hotel costs to watch movies. Great product!

    This is a must buy if you're on the fence about this product! I originally received the Apple TV as a gift, but was suggested to try this Chromecast as an alternative for my other televisions. I absolutely LOVE it! So much that we bought another as a spare. This is great for all those Android users out there or you can even stream from your desktop.
