    Great item for enjoying online video and music on your TV. Hopefully more sites will host the chrome cast capability. Currently you are limited to Netflix, hulu plus, Pandora, HBO GO and a few others: https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/devices/chromecast/apps.html. Still find this item very useful.

    It is a very good gadget specially when there is no smart tv near by so we can see our favorite shows.

    It's great for watching netflix and youtube - but that's about it. Hopefully there will be many more apps supporting the platform in the near future and then this will be a serious force in the TV space. Until then, it's just a 'netflix' player alternative.

    The Chromecast does well when streaming Netflix from a device; however, It struggles when trying to stream from other websites (i.e. MTV, ABC, ProjectFreeTV) The picture tends to lag and freeze, despite it being clear on the laptop. If you want a cheap device for Netflix and Youtube, this is good for you

    I bought this product not only to watch movies on my TV but to show others video that I have recorded on my phone or tablet instead of passing them around to be watched over and over. You cannot show your personal recordings or pictures through this device. I wish I would have known that before I got it

    Works well once it is connected, but has trouble connecting. Have open and close app on iPhone serval times to get it to conect with the chromcast. Some times have to unplug and plug back in to get the app to reconize the device. Very frustrating.

    My BB salesperson told me that this item was "just like a Roku". Sadly for me, I hadn't done any research beforehand. Suffice it to say, this is NOT just like a Roku. Must be operated through a cell phone, which is cumbersome and inefficient.
