    I bought this basically for the Motortrend app, because it is not available on my PS4 other than through the Amazon Prime app, which you need to subscribe through Amazon...which I do not. It works...most of the time. Also hoped it had HBO Max...but no. The little unit gets extremely hot, sometimes it will just shut down and reboot itself. Seems to be no rhyme or reason as to why or when, and it can go a week without doing it, or it will do it twice in one day. Would I recommend? If you need it for the Motortrend, sure. If not, go get a Fire Stick or something.

    It's a good streaming media device for streaming Netflix, HULU, Disney+, etc. The speed performance is decent, but not as fast as the ROKU Stick +. It comes with an HDMI cable, which is a plus.

    This was a great buy. No need for a Spectrum box. Just use the Roku stick and no extra cable cost per Tv.

    A fine option for streaming apps. Originally purchased to replace cable box, but have had some issues with the cable company so now it is used as a backup platform for streaming services.
