    If you got a great TV just before they all became "smart" TV's then this gadget is a great way to watch youtube and similar apps on your TV off of your phone or tablet. Simple to attach. Simple to set up. Inexpensive. What more do you need?

    Picked up this device for a guest room TV. Does what it's supposed to do and was pretty cheap. Hopefully, the list of supported apps grows in time.

    I use this all the time, easy set up, easy to use and very high quality. Let's your existing (dumb) tv and let's you stream various apps like Netflix, you tube and many more right from your phone or tablet. Plus at $35 it is a really great deal.

    I own both this and the Apple TV, the price difference is what lead me to the chrome cast and for the price and functionality it was worth it. The Apple TV is better based off the way it works however I do not regret purchasing this device.

    The ChromeCast would be a welcome addition to any home. It is simple to setup and use and can replace an expensive extra cable box. Even if you only intend to use it for Netflix I guarantee you'll end up exploring its full capabilities.

    My husband bought this for watching videos from his phone to the tv. I use mine for videos and for music. There's no wires from my phone to an aux and let's me keep my phone handy. My kids use this to watch youtube videos all the time.

    This product is awesome! It's a cheap alternative to a smart tv it's only 35.00 rather than spending around 600.00 for a smart tv. I actually have a smart tv at home as well and prefer using the chromecast! You will not be dissapointed!!!

    Great stocking stuffer for myself! Took it on vacation and it easily connected with the hotel & condo WiFi. Used it to stream Netflix movies (kids) and shows (adults) with excellent results. Looking forward to more applications being added!

    Chromecast is a great way to get rid of your cable! Unlike Apple TV and Roku, it's super cheap at the low price of $35! You can't do certain functions like Airplay, which can be found on the Apple TV, but it can connect and mirror with anything that runs Chrome. It's a cheaper alternative from the other streaming devices and worth every cent. Some functions are still in BETA (testing) but will be fixed for perfection in the very near future. Definitely worth every cent.

    I had very little trouble in setting up and it worked as expected. I was able to see some games that I otherwise would have missed. One of the first times I used it I was able to show pictures of a recent vacation on the TV from my phone.

    This thing costs around $35 and is well worth the money. I must add that it is not perfect, yet. What it needs is more supported applications. The one I really wanted, and got, was YouTube.com, which I watch a lot. If there were other apps that could be utilized, then it would be great. I do with that there were a little bit more documentation with the unit. I finally went to YouTube and the web to find out to really use it. Otherwise, a good product. Price is right!

    I got this hoping to be able to put everything on my tablet on the TV screen, but they are not there yet. It works great for youtube, netflix, hulu, amazon prime, pictures from your phone, all that stuff, but there is not support for your apps yet. So if you want to use it for video or pictures on any TV with HDMI this is the tool for you. They are working on the other parts and hope to have that out soon. My fingers are crossed, but all in all it is really neat for 35 bucks.

    Google Chromecast is super easy to set up. All you have to do is follow the instructions depending on what device you are using. I've been loving the fact that I can stream YouTube videos and still get the great quality I see on my laptop.

    This is really awesome product, you can literally play anything on your TV through chrome browser in your laptop. This is best feature that I have liked.No need to have supported apps etc. although chromecast supports so many apps as well.
