    This Roku device was purchased to replace a broken Roku 3. The breakage was my fault, letting it fall onto a hardwood floor while I was moving TV and other equipment to a new set of shelves. The new unit provided easy setup, worked as advertised, and was smaller and lighter than the unit it replaced. I appreciated the provided adhesive strip that allowed me to secure it to the base of the TV (no more unplanned trips to the hardwood). I miss the volume control and earphone jack that were on the Roku 3 remote.

    This is the third Roku I've owned, along with a Roku TV. I've had to update the media players as they'd become obsolete. (In the case of this upgrade, my old player was no longer compatible with mlb.tv--not Roku's fault!) The setup for this small, unobtrusive player was a snap and like all Rokus, it offers all the streaming channels I want. (Well, almost all--as I write this, HBO is not available on Roku and Amazon Fire streaming devices due to a contract dispute. I'm hoping that gets settled.) I got a great price from Best Buy as well.

    This is the second Roku express I purchased. The first one I got as a gift for someone, and they had no complaints with its performance. I actually have a 65 inch Sharp roku TV that just stopped working after having it a little over 2 years. (I won’t be recommending any sharp, Toshiba, or Hinese tv’s) My Back up TV is an older tv that didn’t have any built in streaming platforms. I already knew about the Roku express, and it also happened to be on sale at Best Buy. On top of that I also had a 5 dollar off coupon for Best Buy, so for 20 bucks with tax you can’t beat it. So far it’s been working great no problems. Set up was easy since I already had a Roku account. If your tech savvy you shouldn’t have a problem either.

    My Samsung Tizen OS is a bit confusing, apps hang up and is generally a mess. I fell back to the tried and true Roku, intuitive menus, great signal quality, I may have bought the stick though the sale price was too good to pass up for the express. Frustration eliminated, I can enjoy my whopper screen TV without having shows dropped or frozen at just the wrong moment.

    This thing is freakin sweet! My grandson hooked it up because I don't let the cia watch what I'm doing with the iPads and smartphones and whatnot. Anyway, I get all the stuff, net flicks, hooloo and even local news! Anyway, barbara is calling me from the bathroom, I hope she didn't slip in the tub! Buy a Roku.

    Simple to setup (just plug into to HDMI and follow the simple instructions) and can watch 4K Youtube, Roku, and other channels without issues. Remote is nice with good response. The actual device is small and you hardly can notice it. Would recommend to others.

    This Roku player is easy to set up and use. Bought it for an older “non smart” tv and it unlocked a whole new world of choices to watch. Would highly recommend this model unless you have an ultra 4k tv. Then you will want to get a higher end Roku with higher definition.

    This ROKU device is perfect for anyone that would like to stream different apps on your TV. I have an old LCD tv that does not have WiFi so this Roku device is perfect to stream all my movies and shows . It has many apps that you can’t find on smart Tv. It’s is easy to setup and use would definitely recommend to buy it.

    It does what it says. Users friendly instructions and even without instructions very ease to install and use. A very good alternative to lower your Spectrum cable bill which is ridiculous. Most of the cable channels are double and is full of music and other channels that nobody watch. Roku Premier does exactly the same and have the same features of the most expensive units. Good product and at an affordable price. JR

    Great product! I ordered this product due to my Chromecast going out. I wasn't so sure about it. however, I gave it try. Setup was so easy. Once you login your apps you will not have the trouble of having to do it again. Just sit back relax. I would recommend this product to a friend.

    Easy set up, It comes with an HDMI cord, and a USB chord to plug up to the television. You have to keep both plugged in and the monitor has to be facing you in order for the device to work properly. It comes with a sticker that you can stick the device down so it stays pointing straight and in place at all times so you do not have any complications. When you set up everything completely, they have majority of the settings already set for you to make it easier for you and quicker. Clear quality, clear sound, etc. Pretty good device, I definitely recommend.
