    Nice convenience for watching YouTube Netflix and Pandora on your TV.. But you cannot browse the Internet using chromecast I browse YouTube videos on my iPad then when I make a decision I will broadcast you to my TVs using Chromecast. 35 bucks, it's a good buy.

    Purchased product to use with my bedroom T.V. The setup was very easy and google gives you everything you need to install. The dongle plugs to the back of your tv through an HDMI port. It also has to be plugged to either an outlet or your TV's USB port if your tv has one. After that you have to download the chromecast app for your phone or tablet or you can go on your computer and use the chrome browser pluggin to set up your chromecast. It's very simple and straight forward. You will need you wifi password to complete the setup. This is were I ran into a problem. I did the setup and at first it worked fine but after a while chromecast would forget my settings and I would have to do this all over again. Sometimes it would take a long time to get it to work. I found out from online forums that a lot people are having the same problems and it's because chromecast does not work well with 5ghz dual band routers. After two days I just gave up. When the product work it was ok but very limited and the chrome mirroring feature was very laggy. It's also not a stand alone box like Apple TV or roku box. You will need a smartphone or a tablet with either android or iOS to use it. Buy yourself a roku box instead.

    My husband wanted to get this device and I was reluctant since I felt we didn't need another TV gadget, but since we have had it is makes it much easier to access certain programs and makes watching you-tube homework videos much nicer to watch. We are satisfied.

    So far it's great for watching things on youtube. We were hoping anything done on the tablet could be shown on the TV, which is not the case. It only has a few compatible apps right now. So we are disappointed in that, but hopefully in time it will do that.....

    Average device. Would be very nice if you could go on the internet through Google. It is mainly for netflix and you tube and appears to work good with those two. I was unable to access Google play and my music but I will try again when I have the time to to it.

    Awesome product for YouTube and Netflix. Still want more reasons to use this product. Not sure if it had anything to do with this product but my internet was way slower when this product was plugged in but not in use. Sweet deal tho, got Netflix free for 3 months.

    I would recommend it to anyone who wants the convenience of viewing shows and movies on a bigger screen. Simple click on an app and move the display to your larger monitor. It should be noted that the app has to be Chromecast "friendly" or you can't transfer the display. Good business potential for marketing.
