    With my iPad and Internet access, chrome cast allows me to watch tv anywhere. Also great for when the grandchildren come over.

    The only improvement would be the water/icemaker...sprays water/ice doesn't hit the glass well.

    Overall this is a great product. Easy to setup and use. However sometimes it does gives an error streaming from Netflix and YouTube using iPhone. Needs streaming capability from browser of iOS device and more apps like watchespn to compete with Apple TV. But for 35 bucks..great value for money!

    The pricing isn't bad and it gives you an opportunity to watch your shows on your TV if it isn't a SmarTV or if your TV isn't connected with any smart DVD player or roku device. I watch my shows through Drama fever so there are errors here and there but for the most part, it's easy to use.

    One of the most appealing features about the Chromecast to me was the screen mirroring feature... which was a big let-down. You are very limited as far as what can be mirrored and the connection is very laggy. You are forced to control everything from your smartphone or tablet since no remote control is included with this device and the apps are all redundant to what many tvs and video game systems are already capable of. If you want a small stick to plug in to your TV for streaming services, I would recommend something like the roku streaming stick which has a remote, way more apps and doesn't rely on your tablet or phone to work.

    Great product!! I would recommend this product is a great product in itself. One thing about it that's good that you're able to cash from your phone to your television. The only kind about this product is that it needs to be more apps developed which I know is probably in the process now.

    Love this Chromecast! Bought my second one after I enjoyed using the first one so much. Now the kids have one in the playroom and I have one in my bedroom. Works perfect with my Iphone and Ipad for streaming Netflix and YouTube. Can't wait for more apps to be available with it.

    All in all, a great low cost solution for anybody that needs to stream Netflix, Hulu, or play their music. I have this in my room and its so easy to use my phone to control the music, stop the movie, turn the volume down from my bed without to get up and find the remote!

    He said it would be a good thing as they don't have any cable at the moment. If it works out for him, we might invest in it also.
