    The Roku Express is a little slower than its more expensive & bigger counterparts and the remote needs a line of site to the transmitter to relay inputs. Other than these two trade offs for the cheaper price, it works exactly like it should and I have not encountered any issues yet.

    I was not expecting much from this model as it’s the cheapest model, but I’m impressed. It’s quite snappy and it doesn’t lag. WiFi connection is also strong and apps load quickly.

    Very easy to set up. I purchased this for my mom, who didn't want to get a bigger and smarter tv. With this Roku, she is able to stream Netflix on her bedroom TV.

    It works fine. However, we wish we’d have spent more money to get a remote you can speak into. Typing in searches is an unnecessary pain.

    Works great if your TV is HDMI ready. So easy to use. Just plugged it in, follow the setup for my TV brand and enjoy! I love it! Thinking of saying goodbye to the Cable company, now. Does Not work on my older TV. I will have to get the plus unit or a new HDMI convertor cable.
