    If you are in the market to get a streaming device you cant go wrong with a Roku. However make sure to spend the extra money for the nicer models. The remote on this on is IR line of sight and it gets old really quick trying to make it work. Spend the extra money and save yourself the headache

    Great streaming device for the one-time fee. Allows us to have TV anywhere within wi-fi and not being cable wires to TV. Perfect setup for the garage temporary locations. One can bring on vacation also.

    Makes your tv so much more, my husband loves the fact that he can now watch horse racing without paying for a high priced satellite package just for one channel! There are many more channels available too with ROKU!

    Loading it on my tv and it said oops something wrong and the software gave me a bogus scam 877 number to a place called Multi Tech to me up on Roku. They wanted $150 To set me up on Roku for a lifetime membership. Then they kept texting me to be sure and approve other PayPal payment. They gave me a bogus name and the number didn’t work when I called back.

    Roku streaming boxes are excellent for older TV's that didn't come with built-in Smart features, but practically every new TV now has its own smart features or Roku, Amazon, or Google built in!

    The Roku express is good it just needs a power button. The other Roku remotes have a power button at the top. If I would have known it didn't have one I would have bought another version. Other than no power button it is good.

    Easy hook up.....easy to use. only draw back so far is must be disconnected to return to regular tv. When one switches from the ROKU HDMI slot to cable or TV slot, it logs in but as soon as you try to change channels it returns to ROKU. Only solution so far is to unplug. Not a big deal but a pain.

    I bought this to replace the Comcast digital box I rent, not to cut the cord. It takes about 4 months to break even on rental fee. It is more cumbersome than the digital box (2 remotes needed, a few more buttons to push to get where you want to go), However, I can watch a recorded DVR on this TV that I could not do with the basic Comcast digital box.
