    This new Roku has many of the channels already installed. Easy to tie into our account. Compact box that plug into outlet or any 5 watt USB input for power. One cable for HDMI. Super easy to connect everything.

    Great HD quality streaming

    For a budget streaming box, this is the one to get. It doesn't use as much data as I thought, as I have a limited data allotment with my internet service. I would say we stream about 4-6 hours a day and we use about 50 Gb of data per month. This is with SD quality for most channels and HD for the Roku channel. I have heard the Amazon box uses much more data, as do the 4k and 4k ultra Roku boxes. I have an older TV that is only 720p, so it doesn't make sense for me to buy a better streaming box. As far as setup, it was pretty easy. I set up account, plugged it in, then pushed some buttons and connected to my wifi router and was streaming in no time.

    This product is really great and useful cause in came in clutch in time of need especially since there wasn't any other stores that had one of these and if they did have one it wasn't the same price as the one you guys had.

    This gadget is great. It is really simple to use once it is set up with all the channels I want. It allows me to stream anything I want, but does not currently work with Spectrum's service.

    ROKU rocks

    I love the Roku because of easier access to different channels that I frequently stream such as FilmRise, FilmRise horror. Tubi, Pluto, Roku, even music. I also Transferred to Disney +, HBOmax, AMAZON, and Netflix..to name a few. I’m a little older and I cannot stand too many ups and downs with my finger just to reach my favorite Stations. I loaded more than 57 items I don’t have to spell out the names it’s all already on the Roku list to whereas on my LG smart TV a lot of these stations..do not exist! So for continuity and ease of use, all my smart tv have A ROKU attached. The tile visuals on the Roku are larger. Btw, Rokia is cheaper than most of the others.

    I was surprised it cost less at Best Buy then their competitors. I ordered it online and picked it up in less than an hour. Roku was easy ro set up and actually outlasted the TV it was bought for.

    Easy set up. 20% of the cost of AppleTV. If you just want to stream TV. Roku is perfect and easy to use for streaming, but lacks the functionality of AppleTV (connect to iTunes and stream from a computer).

    My family wanted to try streaming TV for a good price. We like the program choices better than expanded basic cable. Since we have good internet service, this player works well for us. Occasionally, the unit will reset to update the software. The set up is easy.

    I am completely delighted with this device. We needed something that provides streaming service to our rental properties but provides security for us as owner. This fits the bill. It was super easy to setup and navigate. I especially love the ability to set up a "Guest" profile which allows my tenants to load and log into their own services and then automatically deletes them all upon move out.

    Easy to set up. Much faster than using the apps on my BluRay DVD player. Should have done it a long time ago, especially since the apps on my plasma TV seem to be diminishing, with NetFlix being the most recent to go.
