    When the pandemic started back in March, 2020 - I bought my kids this Roku device for their rooms - to help save my sanity while everyone was stuck at home. They were such a hit and so easy to use that I bought another for my room - replacing the Firestick that had been in there previously. I found the Roku to be much easier to use with less glitches than the Firestick.

    Easy to install and use, this is the best way I could find to stream pretty much anything to our tv (including mirroring the screen of my iPad or Mac). If you have a 4K tv you might want to spend a little more and get a 4K compatible model, but the picture quality of this is good enough for me.

    Works great. Put it in daughter’s room who is home from college. She is able to watch all her shows. Hope she doesn’t decide to take it back when she leaves.

    Buy a Roku and stop paying monthly rent for a stupid cable TV set-top box. Note that it requires an internet connection. Note also that this unit is wireless only (no Ethernet connector), so you must have a wireless router. Setup is fast and easy. Our one complaint is the lack of a numeric keypad on the remote, which means that one must scroll in the menus to reach channels. Boo-hoo-hoo :_> The remote on our first Roku failed after five years. We hope that this one is more durable. In that time we never saw the unit itself freeze or require a reboot, unlike the stupid cable TV set-top box.

    All of Roku's products seem fairly easy to install and use, as long as you know a little about your home computer network. This model is reasonably priced. Includes limited function remote.

    I wanted to replace the FireSticks and the Roku seemed to be the solution. However, a salesman at Best Buy suggested ChromeCast. It worked well, but I had to return it because it didn’t support Xfinity. I got the Roku and so far I haven’t had any problems with it. It’s simple to set up and use.

    I would definitely recommend the Roku Express HD. Bought to use on an old tv for access to newer channels. The picture quality and clarity with this combo is so improved it's like having a brand new tv when paired with Insignia HDMI to RCA Converter. Pleased with ease of installation, converter and Roku set up in under 10 minutes.

    We have discovered the wonderful world of streaming with this wonderful little device. Very simple to connect, and get started. I do wish it had a dc cord to plug in to my power strip for and older TV that doesn’t have a usb port, but found an older model Roku for that TV elsewhere.

    I had an old Roku Streaming Media Player that played ok but I could tell it was time for an upgrade. The old player would get stuck and stop working in the middle of a movie. I purchased the latest Roku Express HD Streaming Media Player and it was very easy to set-up. It plays well and has better upgraded features. I'm glad I made this purchase.

    Wow !! I started out buying the model that went with 4k and earphones. After having my son install this one for myself, went to BB and bought another like this one plus 2 other smaller versions. Now my whole home is ROKU done, but really all my streaming services at the touch of my finger plus many other services with this. Wish I would have done this years ago... A must buy

    I have bought five Roku since my first one I have three in my house and I’ve given two away as gifts. I absolutely love my Roku. You have a great choice of channels and many are free. Has a great variety of different channels for different tastes in movies, sports, classic TV. I love to watch the old shows I grew up with during the 1960s and 70s. I subscribe to two or three premium channels but watch a lot of the free ones as well. A lot less than what you would pay for cable or satellite. I had satellite for years and I enjoy getting free channels now. I recommend a roping for anyone who wants to cut the cord on cable or satellite bills you won’t be disappointed!

    Good, but needs a power off option

    Very good value for the price, as long as you don't need 4K. It's small and not intrusive. I used it to convert a monitor with built in speakers to a TV, and it works well for that. It can live stream local news when it's playing, which is about the only thing I use TV broadcasts for anymore, so perfect. I am knocking a whole star off, though for not having a power off option. It gets pretty warm during the day when I'm not using it, which means it's consuming a fair amount of power.
