We streamed content thru a Blu-ray for a few years.....used a brand known for excellent WiFi reception. Well, we replaced our older Blu-ray with a new model,which was supposed to be better....it wasn't. We were able to struggle thru the last year until we bought the Roku plus at my wife's request, as she was tired of her shows being interrupted and reloading.....ALL PROBLEMS SOLVED..... if you need a device will give you the best WiFi reception for a problem area, TRY THIS

I've had roku players for about 3 years now. One in my bedroom and one in the living room. the one in my bedroom died suddenly and had to replace it. I bought this stick yesterday and let me tell you, WOW! I'm impressed again! Love the fact that this thing controls the TV! it's so easy to set up that it's embarrassing. I remember the days when you actually had to spend 2 hours just to set up a remote controller to the TV (remember back in the days?) This new stick is way faster than the one I had before but the only thing That I don't like is that the remote looks cheap made, I like the other remotes better because you could tell they last, very well made, and they do. with the new one, I just feel that I have to be careful handling it. I love this new player!

I absolutely love this i bought a roku tcl 32inch a year ago that shot craps so i was hesitant. Got it home hooked up signed in and i am so happy it put all my channels back and add two more with in minutes. It also has voice command so just made everything so much easier my kids can say what they want to watch and it starts it. Love love love

We dropped Uverse and needed a streaming device. Purchased a Roku 3 and have been very happy with it. Decided I needed something for the bedroom so I could stream on my tv. Purchased the handy Roku stick and it has been great! Minimal setup time, easy to navigate and really enjoying all the channels I can stream for free. Best decision we ever made cutting that cord. Roku has been a great device for us and I would highly recommend it.

I love the Roku Streaming Stick+ overall. It's easy to use, and the interface is intuitive. Setup was a breeze as well. And selection of connected apps is top-notch. I don't like that you can't turn the sound off of the main UI (as in, it makes sounds when you move around menus). You also don't have some of the functionality that, for instance, my older Blu-ray had (as far as Netflix app, in particular). Still, it's fantastic for the price point, and (from what I've seen) it's miles better than any competitor.

My other Roku was OK in the beginning ... but after a few years when a lot of gray started showing on my channel pick ...realized I had to upgrade my internet and then use a newer Roku product; as I am far away from my router. Best gadget since the cell phone!

I've had the Streaming Stick + for 24hrs now. After the transfer of all my streaming apps from my account, I had to delete most of them and reinstall to get them to work properly. You will experience some lag when you first click on the installed app(up to a minute for some) but after the stick warms up and you've clicked the app a few times it will load quickly. Lots of app choices and since Roku does not play favorites, everything is in one place!

I purchased this particular unit over other streaming units primarily because of the ability to control the TV's power and volume with the remote. That feature was nice and surprisingly easy to setup. The next reason I went with the Roku is because of both the other major options are to busy fighting over each other's services that thier devices don't meet my needs. The device itself works great and is much better and faster than the Panasonic smart TV app I have. The apps on the Roku are always up today which really lowers the frustration level when using them. The device does have some minor downfalls, the keyboard with the phone app doesn't always sync correctly with the device so you have to keep an eye out for what you are typing (although it's better than the on screen keyboard option.). The device appears to require more power (USB) right at startup than my TV can provide so I had to plug it into the wall, which is hard to always remember to stop what you are watching when you turn off the TV. This is a case where it would be nice if the device was smart enough to know when you press the power button you want the video to stop also.

I replaced my Amazon Firestick with the Roku and I am very pleased with the results! The only issue that I have noted is the fact that when viewing YouTube I note quite a number of "freezes" or "Speeding up" of video. Initially when I used the Roku there was none of the above symptoms happening, so I feel the problem is either acquired or I have problems at my end.

I got the Roku about 3 mouths ago and it was the best thing I've ever seen I have my cuz boyfriend down to watch it and he wants one so he got raid of direct TV and lowered the price each month to just the internet bill . So now he has bitter TV. More channels and movie's than he ever had ... Plus no problems in bad weather break-ups .... And all a very happy Roku person....
