    Great Streaming Access Device

    I am completely delighted with this device. We needed something that provides streaming service to our rental properties but provides security for us as owner. This fits the bill. It was super easy to setup and navigate. I especially love the ability to set up a "Guest" profile which allows my tenants to load and log into their own services and then automatically deletes them all upon move out.

    This is a nice little device to stream Netflix, Prime, Disney + or whatever else you want! It's easy to use, easy to set up and easy to navigate for beginners and people with minimal tech experience. Well worth the money!

    Easy to use and reasonably priced streaming device. We used this for a non-smart tv for my parents who aren’t as tech savvy. Easy set up and works great. Simple to use remote with all the popular apps at your fingertips.

    I ABSOLUTELY love Roku - We have two other televisions that came with Roku but was unwilling to throw out our older TV in the living room. I purchased the Roku streamer and could not be happier. There are so many channels and interests to choose from and Roku has channels that are dedicated to education and homeschoolers!! The streamer is so easy to use and access.

    Chances are you already know what a Roku stick does if you're here. If not, you're looking at possibly the best streaming device you can have on the market considering how compatible it is with your existing cable services. We've replaced all Xfinity boxes in our homes because these allow you to download the Xfinity Stream App, which you can't do on a Fire TV or Chromecast With Google TV even if you try to sideload it with the APK. it allows you to cast content as well. Turn your dumb tv into a smart tv or use it to upgrade your old smart tv that the manufacturer definitely doesn't support anymore because smart tvs can be a crapshoot.

    Bought this to go with the tv I got from Best Buy. So much easier to use than the fire stick and has a lot of viewing apps to watch tv without a tv service. I got it on sale so the price was right

    This product worked flawlessly from the moment I connected it to my (1080p) TV. Setup was easy. I have Roku built into one of my TVs and another (4K) TV of mine has a Roku Premier player connected to it. All the streaming channels I enjoy (Netflix, Disney Plus, Amazon Prime and more) are available, and I find even more great content on The Roku Channel. I also enjoy how simple and convenient Roku's user interface is to use. One extra plus: I was able to power my Roku Express off the USB port on my TV using a shorter micro USB cable I had on hand, eliminating one more power cord, plus the Roku is now only on when the TV is on. I would definitely recommend Roku to anyone in the market for a streaming media player.

    My family wanted to try streaming TV for a good price. We like the program choices better than expanded basic cable. Since we have good internet service, this player works well for us. Occasionally, the unit will reset to update the software. The set up is easy.

    Great HD quality streaming

    For a budget streaming box, this is the one to get. It doesn't use as much data as I thought, as I have a limited data allotment with my internet service. I would say we stream about 4-6 hours a day and we use about 50 Gb of data per month. This is with SD quality for most channels and HD for the Roku channel. I have heard the Amazon box uses much more data, as do the 4k and 4k ultra Roku boxes. I have an older TV that is only 720p, so it doesn't make sense for me to buy a better streaming box. As far as setup, it was pretty easy. I set up account, plugged it in, then pushed some buttons and connected to my wifi router and was streaming in no time.

    I love the Roku because of easier access to different channels that I frequently stream such as FilmRise, FilmRise horror. Tubi, Pluto, Roku, even music. I also Transferred to Disney +, HBOmax, AMAZON, and Netflix..to name a few. I’m a little older and I cannot stand too many ups and downs with my finger just to reach my favorite Stations. I loaded more than 57 items I don’t have to spell out the names it’s all already on the Roku list to whereas on my LG smart TV a lot of these stations..do not exist! So for continuity and ease of use, all my smart tv have A ROKU attached. The tile visuals on the Roku are larger. Btw, Rokia is cheaper than most of the others.

    This gadget is great. It is really simple to use once it is set up with all the channels I want. It allows me to stream anything I want, but does not currently work with Spectrum's service.
