    How awesome is it to have the mouse, full keyboard and all the instant connect buttons on ONE sleek remote?!!!! I love it! I was in a bind when my computer tower kept breaking down so I purchased this box- I can plug it into my monitor and use it for my business, or move it to my flat screen for full tv with sound. Best product I've EVER bought!

    I bought this stream player for my hushand as a Christmas gift because he is an avid tv watcher. I must admit I am enjoying the player more than he is. I love that I am able to connect to the Internet at anytime.

    The Visio Co-Star is an excellent device for integrating your network media and normal television input. The days of chosing different inputs on your TV have been simplified by the overlaid controls on the top of your program. The Co-Star also makes a dumb TV into a smart TV with picture-in-picture capabilities.

    This product is hopeless and was mis-sold to me at Best Buy. The only value is Netflix, all other free content (which is the whole point of buying this device) either isnt free or doesnt stream/download. The controller doesnt work properly as it only scrolls down, not up and you have keep remembering to shut down apps even after you have turned the TV off, they are still running in the background.

    Thought tis would be cheaper than getting a Smart TV. It is, seems to be pretty slow (buffering) when someone else is using the Internet.

    Couldn't stream Korean dramas. Had to keep resetting the device. Contacted customer service whom said the problem was with the site not the player. However this was incorrect as i was unable to stream from several sites and was able to view them online after disconnecting the device. Keyboard Remote was bulky and not user friendly.

    Best streaming device available in my opinion... I have a Roku player & a Chromecast, Co-Star is by far the best & also has best interface... My big needs were Plex app & full screen browser w/Flash... This has all!!!

    It is a okay device for $100. I think you can get the android TV stick for 40-50 bucks and get the same os features.
