    Bought the Roku so I could watch Apple TV that I got free for a year with my new phone. Also bought this to hook up to an older TV to make it a smart TV. Roku is very easy to navigate and easy to use.

    I am very happy with this purchase. I bought this to replace my comcast cable modems that I have been renting for years. This way I am saving money and getting the extra benefits of the Roku as well. So worth the purchase.

    I love the ROKU plug in. I will never have to pay for cable or equipment again!!!!! The only reason no 5 star rating is no volume buttons on remote. Have to use TV remote for sound. I have one on all the TV'S in the house

    My mother in law wanted an easy option to watch Nextflix. Now she just has to push a button and she has it. I was surprised that she has already figured out the Roku does more and she is using many more features.

    So happy with my purchase, by far it's definitely better than firestick. I got it at a great price, easy to set up, don't have to pay for subscription to watch live tv. Lots of free movies and shows.

    Got this for myself and found it incredibly easy to use so I gave it to my dad and upgraded myself to a TCL TV with Roku built in. Great price and the remote is easy, especially the Netflix button.

    Hello, this is a great device. For all it does seems to me very cheap. Now we can watch streaming at our not so new big screen. The roku gets a little hot sometimes but has never let me down when i need it.

    The roku works great, however if you are not using this device with a tv that is set up on an entertainment center I would recommend going with the roku stick instead.

    It works best when located close to router. Initially, I thought the Roku was defective because we were getting HDCP error codes every 15 - 20 minutes. Since we moved the Roku, we haven't had a single dropped movie or show.

    This was my first experience with the Roku brand. After seeing how easy it was to use and the fact that it has Disney+ out of the box, coupled with the low cost vs others, I immediately got the 4K version for our primary TV.

    Very fast,very small. I like the roku's better then Amazon Firesticks and Tvs smart features. I use this for my children's TV room and use the Roku Ultras on our main TVs. Will buy more when needed.

    For some reason, MSNBC gets interference on my cable hookup. The problem doesn't exist when using the Xfinity streaming app with the Roku ... and, it came with a lot of nice apps built-in.
