    The Chromecast does everything I need it to do. I can stream Netflix, Youtube, screen mirror my phone or showbox (with some help of other applications.) Easy to use and setup. I'm going to purchase another one for the bedroom.

    I bought this for my daughter for her apartment for Christmas. She loves it and couldn't be happier with it. I was planning to get the ROKU but was directed to this by the associate. It was less expensive and is perfect for her!

    I have enjoyed my chromcast a whole lot more than expected. Super easy to set up, just plug it in and go. Works like a charm. I cast a Playlist on u-tube to last for hours, then use android or windows device for something else.

    I have now purchased 3 of these devices. It is simple to use and I love the low cost. I WiFi at my home and a subscription to Netflix and Redbox. I don't watch regular TV or cable. This allows me to watch what I want when I want. I also love that I can stream Pandora on all my TVs and have my music playing in every room at the same time! My daughter watches how to videos on YouTube with it. She loves that she gets to see the videos on the big screen.

    I can go on google chrome and watch anything from movies to shows with the chromecast. Set up is simple and easy, and anyone can use it. I love the portability. Only thing missing would be it needs a cap for non usage time.

    Chromecast was easy to install/set up. After getting our first one and using it with our primary television, we bought a second and move it from one TV to another. Be aware, though, that it isn't compatible with the Kindle Fire.

    The google chromecast at $35 is a tremendous value for the price. I no longer have to use HDMI cords to see videos from my computer which was my main point of use. I was able to purchase when 3 months of Netflix for free so the chromecast has more than paid for itself. The picture quality is great, as is the sound. I've had no issues with it. I haven't cast media from my phone as much, but the feature is super useful also. Definitely a great buy!

    Inexpensive way to stream video and music

    The Chromecast is an inexpensive solution to stream video and music on your HDTV. You do need another device such as a smartphone, tablet or laptop for it to work. If you like to share your contents across multiple devices, you can't go wrong with this product. Compare to streaming devices like the Apple TV and Roku, the Chromecast is very short in apps. But Google said it will bring more apps to this product as it is getting support by more developers.

    Simple and easy to install. Haven't figured out how to use it to cast my laptop screen onto my TV yet, but then I haven't looked really hard either. I've been using it mostly for YouTube.

    A very inexpensive way to stream and I have been able to watch movies without any problem. You can turn any TV into a smart TV without worrying about apps on the TV being discontinued.

    Outstanding Value for the Money!

    For 35 dollars and often less on sale as this one was (sometimes with other special offers like Google Play Credit), the value for the money is outstanding! You basically can turn a dumb TV into a much smarter one or a Smart TV into a more capable one. The design is simple and the setup is not too hard to follow. It has worked flawlessly for me. We use it nearly every day to "cast" Netflix, HBO Go, YouTube and other Chromcast enabled apps from my smartphone or IPad. You can even cast your own photos with the right app or from Google Photos if you've backed them up to the cloud from your smartphone. You can even set your own photos to display on the TV when you are not currently casting any apps or just enjoy the ones that Google displays by default (which do change over time).

    Very neat little item. Basically will send anything you can get on your phone to your TV. Amazon, Netflix, YouTube, etc. Setup was a little confusing, but simple and easy after that. Didn't expect it to work as good as it does.

    It enables you to watch Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, HBO GO, and other internet programs on your phone and displays them on your TV (if your TV has a HMDI input). Simply launch the Chromecast app on your cellphone and it will sync with your TV through your at home wifi, (or your wifi on your phone if you have it enabled as a hotspot). Very easy to set up. If you use the Chrome browser on an iPad, you can also sync the iPad to surf the web displayed on your TV.
