    I bought the $39.99 roku and it worked fine for around two weeks and then quit. Fortunately, Best Buy replaced it with another one.

    The streaming stick is good but the remote is just awful. The remote never works correctly and when it does work it sticks constantly. What a terrible remote control from Roku. Roku needs to come out with a better design of a remote control.

    Worthless Unusable Junk

    Wow, where do I begin. I had such high hopes for the Roku 4k Plus Stick but my hopes were quickly dashed upon installing it. It tried to work at first but then buffering and shortly after that the dang thing froze my TV screen. Nothing I did could unfreeze it. Finally, I read on the Internet how to uninstall this contraption because all of my personal information was in it. I quickly returned this useless junk back to Best Buy the very next day. I have an older version when it wasn't in stock form that is great at streaming so this all came as a big surprise.

    I bought several Roku sticks for an Airbnb I was setting up. This one was the only 4K unit. All the others setup easily and connected to my WiFi fine. This 4k unit, for some reason just would not connect to my WiFi. I tried many times. I replaced with a non-4K unit and it works.
