    While this Roku is within a good price range it does not have voice control if you feel that is important. If so, you would want to step up to the next model. Otherwise all the controllers are the exact same. It does a good job.

    We purchased these to replace our cable boxes which in turn reduced our cable bill. They were easy to install and operate.

    works fine for streaming but you need subscription to watch a lot of the content available. It works for me because I was streaming on the Playstation and I wanted to run it less.

    I have an older tv that is still a flat screen but not a smart tv. This gives the tv a whole new life. Plus I got it when it was on sale.

    Prefer it to Apple TV and a fire stick. The interface is nice, easy to navigate, remote is reliable and has a nice button layout.

    ROKU has the most intuitive interface of the streamers, I think. A great value for a basic unit.

    We were wanting to cut our cable connection from AT&T. It was suggested we try Roku. My husband wants his local news so we had to get an antenna. He also wanted his CNBC. So we would have to get a streaming service that carries that in its line up. The antenna is bad news! The Roku does work, we just don’t use it.

    This was my first Roku purchase. I did not research enough to not see that the remote does not have a volume control. As a result, I now have to use 2 remotes for my TV.

    So much better than watching the depressing evening news. No monthly fees!! Just pop on Roku and watch a great show or movie.
