I had an old Roku but didn’t realize how outdated it was until I got this new one. I LOVE it. It was easy to install (I did it myself) and I was so pleased, once I got it loaded up, with how fast it is and how many more channels I can get. The Roku device itself is so small, and the remote is efficient and easy to sync and use. Highly recommend.

Need something to take to the mountains with me for a long weekend getaway. I hadn’t planned on turning the TV on but the weather left me with no choice. Didn’t want to unhook my Roku Ultra 4K and the cost of this made it a no brainer. With the small size I really didn’t expect much but honestly this thing is fast! I used my phone as a hotspot and had 0 issues with it. Completely satisfied and glad I got it, will definitely use it in the future when traveling.

I got it for my parent’s room and they love it! It is just like if your tv was a smart tv! It is very easy to use and it is at a great price! I only recommend getting this one if your tv isn’t a 4K tv and if you don’t have the cable because we got the 4K at first but it wasn’t compatible and either way this one looks great in HD! We love it!

This remote was easy to set-up with my TV. They didn't have the remote that I have at home which controls the TV devices. ( on off , volume controls) but I'm happy with it.

This was a really fast and easy way to connect a new TV before the cable company could come up and connect the hard wires, and we ended up keeping it for when cable is down.

I had a Firestick and it just wouldn't work in my bedroom for some reason. Just kept trying to connect to the internet and was slow. Got this and it is great. No issues at all.

this unobtrusive small device turns an older non smart tv into a smart one. Loads of streaming options, great picture, and easy to set up. You can see all the free stuff available and also log in to your paid streaming subscriptions.

Easy to use with lots of free programs to watch without subscribing to any pay-to-watch streaming services. Of course, all the popular streaming programs are easily accessed thru Roku if you want them. I like that the Roku remote will turn the tv on/off but I wish it would also adjust the volume so I did not have to use the tv remote. It was quick and easy to set up. Wish I had bought a Roku years ago. I am using the Roku Express with a 10-year old Vizio HDTV and it works perfectly.

I bought this to keep in my van when I travel. It allows me to check into a hotel room and hook up my Roku to the hotel television and have access to all my streaming services. It is compact and works well.

Great little affordable player. The wifi on the kids room tv gave out, so i got this. It was cheaper thsn purchasing a new tv. Easy to set up, super low profile. It only streams at up to 720p i believe, which is more than enough. Tv's usb port can be used to power it which is great too

The best entry-level streaming device out there

Don't let the low price fool you, this Roku Express still provides all the Roku content of the higher end devices. If you don't need 4K then the Roku Express is a great value. The performance when flipping through menus is good and initial setup is very straightforward and easy. The Roku remote is well know as being one of the best compared to all the competitors. The Roku menu interface is nothing fancy but that's what I like about it, it's quick and easy to figure out and navigate. Overall you really can't go wrong with a Roku Express or any Roku device in general.

Every TV in our home has one version of Roku or another. This Express is perfect for the smaller non-4k TVs. Easy to setup and use. The Roku OS is the best-of-class for streaming devices and so easy to use.

Working well. No problems at all. Set up was easy. The receiver is tiny. Using it on a 1080p Insignia TV. Very adequate picture. Connected to wifi with no problems. Recommended.

The best streaming solution for a low-end TV

I have been a roku fan for years. The beauty of the solution is that it is compatible with virtually every streaming service except AppleTv.
Video is great, providing your broadband is adequate. From Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu, through Spectrum and Sling TV, everything works beautifully.
And one must not forget Roku's own free channel, together with other free services such as Pluto and Vudu (free programming) which all stream flawlessly.
At the price of this device, who needs anything different? Of course, if you require 4k picture, you may want to upgrade. But that is ever affordable.
Why go anywhere else?

This has been an incredible addition to our home entertainment system. I do have a smart TV, but it's a little older (2015) and so isn't compatible with all of the latest apps. I started looking at this when I subscribed to Disney+, as my only option at the time was to stream through a browser and cast to the TV (doable, but annoying). I wanted something permanently connected, and this has been wonderful. It's so fast and easy to set up, and has so much of my favorite streaming content in one place. The menu is easy to navigate, with very little delay between screens. I love that the remote is so simple. My four-year-old has no problem using it without help.
