    If you need to stream anything this packs the best thing, comes with great fast working product and I was amazed at how fast it is with just one bar of my WiFi since I have it hooked so far away from the WiFi yet it runs really smooth and super fast I love it

    I bought this for the in-laws to pair up with a 720p Vizio. Install was super easy. Works flawlessly. No 4k needed on this tv, that's why this was purchased. Awesome deal during Black Friday at Best Buy!!! I also purchased a 4k version for our house. ;)

    The Roku is more versatile than most products in this category. Set up is easy. As long as your remote or phone remote app is on the same WiFi network as the Roku it's binge watch city. Once it is set up, Grandma can use it. So Grandma can cut the cable too.

    Roku Express

    We like our Roku Express. It has lots of channels. Some, of course, require a cable or satellite provider, which we do not have. That is the reason we wanted a roku. We do not have cable TV. Set-up was very quick and easy. Only channel we have found not to work is SlingTV. Don't bother with it unless you have at least 25mbps continuous with NO other devices running at the same time. We have 25 mbps service with our internet provider, but we have 2 laptops and 2 smart phones so our 25 mbps is not enough for Sling to come in without buffering. Another thing with the Express model is that you have to point the remote directly at the roku device to change channels, but we don't find this to be a huge problem.

    Roku 3700r - solution for 2nd TV with Spectrum

    Since Spectrum does not support TWC's digital adapter, I purchased & installed Roku 3700r ($19.99 Best Buy sale price) on 2nd TV and downloaded free Spectrum app. I can now see all channels on my Spectrum plan on 2nd TV w/o paying a monthly cable box fee to Spectrum. WOOHOO! So far, works great.

    I got one of these for each of my TV's and replaced my cable boxes with them. I use my cable company's app on the Roku to watch TV now and save a bunch of money. This thing has all the other apps I need as well. Great deal!

    I love the roku device. Cheap and simple way to enjoy all the streaming services in one convenient device. Not more streaming through my consoles. Works great for cord cutters like me. Have one downstairs and in the bedroom and made great use of it while traveling. Using it in a hotel is a breeze and didn't miss Game of Thrones or any of my daughters kid programming on Netflix. It also works pretty well for connecting to home media such as a NAS home cloud system and using Plex to view this content is nice.

    It’s compact yet full of entertainment. You can take it from one room to another with ease and all you need to have is a hdmi and a charging cable conected to your tv( if your tv has extra hdmi and USB port available)

    The roku express is entry level into the streaming device area, but comes with a remote. For our needs which are basic, it has sling and other services can be installed. We have been using googlecast, but for some family members, it was too complicated, where the remote is the best way to select the stream, its perfect. Performance is fine and features are simple. For the price, its meets our needs better than chrome. If you are really into movies, games, etc, probably better to buy the more advanced roku.

    I replaced my Roku stick with this since the stick was behind my tv and it would not pick up the Bose remote. This fits between my Bose sound bar and tv. Would never know its there and works better than the stick.

    Since cutting the cable cord I purchased the larger Roku and was very pleased with its performance. The express model is just as good and so far I have not noticed any difference in performance. A good purchase!

    I am very happy with the roku. Having to line up the remote to the receiver is a minor thing.. for me. Some might want to spend the few extra dollars. But I have no reason to spend more on anything else. Hasn't been slow or let me down in 6 or so months

    I love this version of ROKU. We have an older model Vizio Smart TV and I was looking for a viable option to expand our streaming options and after some research I discovered the ROKU Express Our TV is a wall mount so the stick option wouldn't work without some additional connectors. With this little guy we just plugged it in and attached it to the bottom of the TV with the enclosed Velcro strips. A great low price option to make any TV a Smart TV. or make an out of date Vizio relevant again!
