    Cable bill was WAY too high. Bought Roku player and subscribed to Sling, have all the channels I watched before for way less. The Roku has a multitude of channel apps on it for free and purchase. Remote is radio frequency so it works without having to point it at the box. Love it.

    It streams very smooth. There's no off button. It just stays in stanby mode. If you go longer than a week without using it, the remote will need to be re synced. Other than that, perfect.

    I'm very satisfied with my Roku 3. While it takes my smart TV and Blu-Ray player over half a minute to get to the Netflix menu, it takes seconds on my Roku. Streaming is flawless.

    went wireless for tv viewing, cutting out the cable bill saves me a bundle. Without my Roku, I'd still be shoveling out ridic $ for stupid overpriced cable that I don't need 95% of.

    I have really enjoyed this machine. It is part of my vision to cut out cable and so far has been working well. The only problem is that is it hard to get live TV like baseball games.

    This is an excellent product to stream movies but I wished it had support to stream my Note 4 screen. As of the moment I am writting tis review, Roku does not support the Galaxy Note 4

    This device is excellent for streaming videos from various apps. My favorite part is that I can use it as a "second cable box" and stream live cable TV via the time warner cable app

    I've had experience with Apple TV, google chrome cast, Amazon Fire stick and the netgear streamer and the Roku still blows them all out of the water. It's reliable and easy to use

    This was actually my fifth Roku I have bought. We have one for every tv in are house, they are a perfect way to still watch all the tv you want but not have the high cable bill.

    This is my second one. I love these great investment I am slowly getting rid of my cable boxes. They have so many options, hook up in five minutes very simple. The remote is great and the headphone jack is a bonus for listening in private in not disturbing anyone else. You can add more channels than you will ever need and watch whole seasons. It pauses and if you shut it down it will resume where you left off.

    I got this for my dad for xmas and he loves it! I was quite impressed with it myself. TONS of channels and even ones you recognize. For some you still need a basic cable sub to get access to, but otherwise there is something always on!

    I like my Roku 3 because it works well, it's fast, and quiet. I'm watch Amazon, YouTube, Smithsonian, ORA, and a couple others. The picture quality is BETTER than through cable because Roku gives you a true 1080p. When I was watching the Olympics, I was just mesmerized at how crystal clear it was (not to mention the hot bodies!!!).

    Definitely serves its purpose and the controller with the option to have headphones is a plus. However, If you want something cheaper that is still really good, go with Google chrome.

    Needed an additional Roku box for second TV so went with Roku 3 this time. The ability to manage multiple Netflix profiles has been the most noticed improvement over the Roku 2.

    We love our Roku! We are all addicted to it. This does what it needs to do and is SO much better than cable. We are definitely enjoying it as well as a MUCH lower cable bill.

    Roku does everything it said it would do. The only thing I noticed (and I think is unavoidable) is the delay while your selection loads - even between clips as it cycles. I bought a second one from a friend who returned to satellite.

    The range of apps is fantastic - you are not locked in like on Apple TV. We have no cable and using streaming - Netflix, Amazon. And Sling is great for certain sports (not hockey)
