    I love my Roku!

    I use my Roku all the time. It's a super easy way to access all your streaming services, and even has some apps that are free. It's very compact and easy to install. It also has a remote app for your phone, which is really helpful if you lose your remote or the batteries die, but also provides additional features that the remote doesn't. My only complaint is that occasionally the remote gets a little glitchy and stops working, so I have to unplug the Roku from my TV for a few minutes so it can reboot.

    Product is the perfect travel companion. Order the free HDMI extender to plug if necessary, and bring the wall plug in case the TV USB is too far from the HDMI. Also heats up so be sure to unplug at night. If not traveling you can also plug into USB on soundbar and powers just fine. We power off the soundbar at night so effective at on/off ops lacking on all Roku devices. Last and most annoying is the remote occasionally stops working despite good batteries. Just need to remove one and put it back in.

    Good versatile streaming stick

    I am really enjoying this streaming stick. There are tons of channels (now I see why some people are cutting the cord) and it operates smoothly. I got this over other brands like AppleTV and Amazon because it does not favor any set of channels over the other (and it is cheaper than the AppleTV). It is meant to be on all the time and can run warm (I was initially concerned), but this is normal and if it is too warm, it will give a warning (I haven't experienced it yet). The only drawback is that it won't necessarily recognize all your wireless networks; I was told the router has to be within 25-50 feet of the stick. Nevertheless, I think it is an excellent value.

    So I kept hearing about these awesome little sticks for the longest and since they were recently on sale, I decided to go ahead and grab one. It's a very easy to use device and has a ton and I mean a ton of content. After getting it connected to my WiFi, I had to create a new Roku account which wasn't too bad. Then once my account was set up I went browsing through it's online Channel Store (which might I add also included games). There's more content than you can shake a stick at. Some channels are free while others may require a separate subscription service. All in all its a very good purchase and very easy to use. No issues whatsoever. Oh and its portable. Great for traveling; especially if you're most likely going to be somewhere that has WiFi.

    Good item for non-smart TVs!

    By simply plugging into an HDMI port, this basically turns a non-smart TV into a smart TV. This was PERFECT for us, since we were trying to stay within' a budget when purchasing a new TV for our home; We were hoping it would be a smart TV, but those were all out of budget. The guy working at our local Best Buy told us about the Roku stick (which we didn't even know existed), and not only did purchasing a good TV plus the Roku stay within' budget, it's really easy to use. Heads up though, you will have to sign up online to Roku's main website and place your payment information there before you're granted access. It's free and doesn't charge you for signing up, but it's just in case you decide to purchase apps or channels through the Roku in the future. It can be a little bit of a time consuming process going back and forth from your TV to your computer/phone for all the confirmations and what, BUT after it's set up, it's great. Pretty good product overall!

    I use Roku products to replace my cable boxes, saving me $$. The roku stick is speedy, and the point anywhere remote is great! Setup is very easy and the operating system couldn’t be more intuitive to use.

    I have tried several other devices but Roku is, by far, the easiest to set up and use. I REALLY the dedicated remote with one touch option to get to NetFlix and other providers of content.

    Great compact ROKU Player, listed as a streaming stick, has all the features of a Player. And yes it's a stick, looks like a big USB Flash Drive. The difference is that you plug this into a HDMI port and the power cord can be plugged into a USB power rated port (My Set-up) or use the adapter into any wall outlet. Full HD features, 5 ghz Wi-Fi, and set-up online is like all ROKU's, sign-in or set-up an account, connect device to account and enjoy...... We have it connected to a UHD 4k HDR+ 60", Great Picture, full sound and the audio is run to the Home Theater system off the TV, for added sound effects. simply put great streaming.....

    This streaming stick is super easy to set up and has cool features. I have a chromecast, a Fire Stick, and two Rokus. The Roku is the easiest to set up and use. It also has a search feature that searches all of your apps to find movies/programs that saves you having to log into each one and searching. It's also fast and has a great high def picture.

    This Roku is small, but very fast and fully functional. It seems like a slightly large flash drive and simply plugs into a HDMI port on your TV. Depending on where your port is, the stick protruding might be a problem, but in this case, you can request a free, and short, HDMI extender cable from Roku. The only thing I would improve is that I would love to see a browser included, well, and I'd also like to see the long awaited Xfinity app.
