    The Roku itself works great, but the remote itself is small and is hard to navigate my PSVue. There is no guide. I would recommend it but not for use for the Vue.

    This is the 3rd I've purchased in the last 2 years. This is the newest model. The purple version has burned up in less than a year. Hoping this one will last longer.

    Power plug defective. Plug would not stay firmly in electrical wall receptacle. Continuously fell out of wall outlet, and broke transmission of TV.. HDMI extender requested and received immediately, but was not long enough to get in view from behind TV. It did not add any improvement to the strength of the WiFi signal. I could not add a wire connection to improve the transmission from my moden. Awfully sorry. It was a great idea. I will respond when these improvements occur.

    Everything worked as advertised and there were no problems. Except that the interface had an outdated feel and look. But it was not what i was looking for sadly.

    Less expensive than several other models, which did perform basically the same functions. Had some difficulty programming into the Netflix and Amazon systems.

    Roku is a great replacement for expensive cable and satellite TV programming. Great idea, Good bye to bad customer service and high price programming.

    This Roku worked fairly well for a couple of months, before it began stalling out during every use multiple times. Calling the manufacturer, we were told it was our internet connection. Weeks went by when our frustration was so high we would not use at all. Weeks turned to months. Then we downloaded an app that tested our wifi strength which confirmed it was a product defect all along. We purchased another device two months ago and are much happier.

    I have an older model of the stock and two Roku 4's. This one has the hardest time keeping connection even with the free HDMI extender that Roku will mail you.

    I purchased this so I could use my TWC account on a non smart TV. It works but I wish it allowed you to pause and rewind. Other than that it does what it says.

    Short answer is that Kodi cannot (ever) be supported on Roku because Kodi is a native C/C++ application and Roku does does not support (or rather allow) native C/C++ applications. Roku's SDK only support script applications that are written in Roku's own BrightScript language. The FireStick is a simple setup and install..and you have access to everything and anything online to stream.

    Does what it needs. Lacks Fire-stick abilities. Would be better if it had the games that the firestick provides. Layout and easy navigation also lacking.

    I have never purchased a roku before, but this one seems to work well. However, I have no idea of how long these things are expected to last. Time will tell.

    Seems like many apps didn't support this so I ended up just returning it. Was decent I guess if you just want basic app support.

    Good alternative to paying the cable company for a little black box. It's nice when it works, but it goes out a lot. (The internet is not the issue)

    It doesn't do any live streaming except for NBC Sports, which is great, but not enough. A large array of options, just not the ones I was looking for.
