    This is an awesome streaming device. It was super easy to connect to my tv. I only needed to connect one cable and it was instantly connected. The setup was easy to understand. The roku picked up my wifi fast. Visually the tv shows and movies looked amazing and I don’t even have a 4K tv. Finding channels and adding them were a breeze. The roku has lots of free shows and endless amounts of free movies to watch. I thought the free content offered on the Roku is amazing. The controller is super easy to use and navigate. I loved this Roku so much that I purchased another one for my bedroom.

    This streaming product was easy to set up and use. Connected easily and works very fast and very well. Highly recommend a fast internet connection if you are going to cut the cord and stream. My only disappointment with this unit is it does not control the volume on the TV, where other Roku units do.

    Perfect device for simple, easy to operate streaming. Sets up easy, has most every streaming option (save HBO Max as of this review), and handles 4k. Great bang for the buck.

    Roku is awesome for streaming content

    This is my second Roku, the other an Ultra. It was so easy to register the device to my Roku account, and all my selected apps were added automatically to the home page. I had to log in again to Plex, Netflix, Amazon, Pandora, etc. on the new Roku, a minor hassle. Having good WiFi and Roku I can have all my Plex recorded shows and streaming services on my "dumb" 1080p TV without needing Antenna or Cable connected. I probably should have gotten another Ultra, as I miss the volume control on the Roku remote, but otherwise the remote and Roku are very easy to use.

    The Roku Streaming Player was purchased with a new smart TV. We were looking for either a Firestick or Roku TV. When an associate was assisting me, they asked about my needs. When I let them know that we had Xfinity cable they made sure that I took home ROKU because they access XFINITY streaming. The unit was very easy to install and use. We have been exremely satisfied with it. Because we now have RoKU, we also receive a nice little credit by not using an Xfinity box! Thank you!

    Now that Apple has released an Apple TV+ app compatible with other streaming devices, I was able to purchase this Roku for a fraction of what I normally would pay to add or replace an older Apple TV box. I'm able to playback all of my legacy Apple content (purchased movies, etc.) as well as running apps for most of the popular streaming services. A few negatives: 1) Runs a bit hotter than I would have expected it to 2) Without unplugging it, it seems to always be on with no equivalent "off" or "low power" mode. 3) Remote requires pointing at the device with an unubstructed view. No Bluetooth or RF connection available. 4) Currently does not have an HBO Max app available. Presumably this will happen in the future, but it's not an option at this time. Overall, I'd purchase this again to use with other TV's in the house as needed.

    Everything You Need to Cut the Cord

    I will admit that I primarily stream through Apple TVs, but for the spare bedrooms and Gym TV I decided to save a bundle and get this Roku. In some ways it's actually far easier to set up and navigate than an ATV and really delivers all you need. The ATVs have more connectivity options and are great for whole-house audio, screen-mirroring, etc. . . but at less than 1/4 the price, the Roku does a lot. Every app I want is available, it maintains connectivity and a big bonus, you can actually stream from your iTunes (and probably other) library on your phone so if you want to stream through a soundbar or whatever from your phone, it's easy-peasy.

    … as long as you mean (metaphorically) getting rid of cable. You may need scissors for other cords, especially umbilical (sterilize them first). I'm impressed with the capabilities of this tiny box. I can connect to all my subscribed services, including those not available in other streaming devices (hello turf battles among providers). It performs as well as others in its category. I stuck it to the bottom of my TV and it sort of disappears like a male angler fish after mating. I'd highly recommend it to my friends. Even to my enemies—that's how magnanimous this little device makes me feel. Your mileage may vary.

    Great Alternative to Cable

    This device was purchased in order to reduce my cable bill by giving back some remote "boxes" on my additional TV's. I wound up only reducing one box and using the second Roku Box for another TV that had no connection (in the basement - my husband's workshop). He was currently streaming Netflix on his tablet, but we had a TV that had been idle, so we hooked the Roku up to that TV, so he can watch things on a larger screen! I must say the device is very compact and easy to install. The Roku service is a bit challenging to set up all of the channels you may want, but the device itself is a breeze!

    Essentially I bought this to replace Xfinity/Comcast boxes on additional TVs to stop paying all the rental fees. For this, it works great. Nice to get Netflix, Amazon Prime, Xfinity Stream, etc. all in one place without having to jump inputs. It is pretty easy/intuitive to set up. The more accounts/streaming services you have, the longer it will take. I wish the remote had a few more features as the navigation can be slow at times. But, I understand this is also dependent on the apps that use Roku's service. It would also be nice if you could bind all apps to your Roku account so that each time you add another Roku device you could just choose the accounts you want used and not have to register/login all over again. If this is possible, I must have missed it. Otherwise, very decent product that servers the needs I bought it for.
