Roku stick works well. This is our first experience with ANY kind of streaming. My wife has been streaming her favorite PBS Passport shows after making a donation to PBS. We really aren’t yet interested in paid subscription services like Netflix, etc. Having said this my only complaint is with the Roku service. My wife clicked on a “7 day feee trial” link for a Hallmark movie and Roku immediately charged my credit card for one month of Hallmark ($7.99 plus tax). Roku customer service wouldn’t/ couldn’t refund the charge and so my only recourse, if I choose to do so, is to have my credit card company dispute the charge. There’s no guarantees with a dispute though. What a pain for $8!! I did turn off the auto renew for Hallmark and removed my credit card from the Roku account (which is something I wasn’t able to do when I set the account up. It seems that a “free” trial should be just that… free. Kind of leaves a bad taste in your mouth as a first time user. Apparently others have had this happen to them according to an internet search.

Just a great simple streaming stick. I have purchased a few over the years and have never been disappointed. Very easy to use and a great value for the price.

Works better than expected. I have an old Roku tv and the apps were starting to run very buggy. I plugged in this Roku stick to a usb port and the apps are faster and the picture is far clearer than it was before.

We love our Roku sticks. This is the best streaming deal around, even better when it goes on sale. This is my 5th Roku stick purchase, and it never fails to give us many TV, movie, and news options.

Good option instead of cable and I have an antenna to get local channels but I do like to watch movies.
It was easy to set up and the instructions were clear. There are 2 options to plug it in, the TV or use the outlet. I tried the outlet and it didn't work and that could be because I was using a power strip but works fine in the USB port on the TV. An error messaged popped up about a HDMI error and the instructions to fix it was easy, unplug the Roku and TV and all worked fine.
I do not have a smart TV so this is perfect and I only pay for a few subscription-based apps as I don't watch a lot of TV.
Not sure if I will bring this with me as I travel as many hotels have smart TV's and I'm not in them long enough to watch TV. We shall see...
Good price too...

The Roku Pro Series TV offers superior picture and sound, while the new Streaming Stick and Stick Plus provide affordable and easy 4K HDR streaming with improved remotes that now include voice and TV controls. The 2025 Roku Plus Series TV is highlighted as a user-friendly, high-value option for those who prefer Roku's media-focused interface over other platforms, though it isn't a top performer in the mini-LED market.
