I only give out 5 stars when a purchase exceeds my expectations. I have streamed shows from Hulu, youtube, and comcast on my desktop computer and only youtube was mostly glitch-free. Even though I have fast cable from Comcast, even streaming from them was nowhere near as enjoyable as regular cable viewing.
I expected the same lower-quality from the Roku, but it seemed a better choice that connecting my laptop to the TV so my wife could watch all the shows on Acorn.
The Roku is surprisingly small and while a wall adapter is provided, it can also be powered from a USB port if your TV has one. You can also use the included adhesive strip (Command removable?) to secure it to the side or bottom of your TV. Setup is pretty easy and while you don’t have to register with a credit card, you should if you are going to pay for any services like acorn.
The Roku comes with a nice remote, but now we have 3 to deal with where we only had one before. The comcast remote was the only one we needed, but now we need to have the TV remote around because we need to change the “input” from HDMI2 to HDMI3 to use the Roku. It would be nice if the Roku had an button you could program just for changing the TV input.
We selected to have about 8 channels including Acorn. All of the programs I tested were as clear and stable as normal cable viewing. The picture quality is really very, very good. I showed my wife how to use the Roku and now she has started bingeing for the first time. She’s pretty happy which is a good thing.
I am thinking about getting another Roku for myself. Perhaps the Express+ that has composite jacks for older TVs. We have a treadmill in the basement and I am thinking about setting up the Roku with a nice (but old) little 13″ TV that we used to have in our kitchen. It would be nice to watch some shows while endlessly walking and getting nowhere.
If you travel very much you should consider that this thing is tiny and will work with any TV that has an HDMI jack. And it will work anywhere in the world if you have WIFI Internet access as long as the connection speed is good.

We love our Roku players. We have four (4) Roku devices in our house and we love using them. They are super easy to use and very simple to set up. We cut the cable about a year ago and these devices allow us to stay current on the shows we watch, but without the huge expense of the cable or satellite bill. The Express-HD is fast and responsive with great video streaming quality. Unlike the Amazon devices, the Roku has the Vudu app along with a YouTube App (FireTV removed their Youtube App recently). We are now a Roku house.
We have mounted both of our Roku Express players to our TV’s. The device comes with the mounting strips and they don’t look out of place on the TV’s.
Pros: – Super easy setup – Mounting to the TV is very simple and the device comes with mounting strips – Availability of streaming apps. There are a ton of apps available and we use a bunch of them. – Small form factor. These are almost hidden and work great. – The remote is simple and easy to use. – Fast and responsive. For such a small device, it packs a lot of power. It is very responsive and streams in great quality.
Cons: – Wish the remote could be programmed to control the TV volume. We ended up getting a “SideClick” remote so we only have one device that controls the TV and the Roku.

me acaba de llegar en muy buen paquete, llego a los 3 dias que lo pedi, cuando decia que iba a llegar al cuarto dia (igual es muy rapido) no se tardo nada en llegar me gusto mucho, yo esperaba que llegara en la siguiente semana. aun no lo conecto pero estoy ansioso por llegar a casa a probarlo (me llego a mi oficina, donde siempre llegan todos mis paquetes) me gusto que rapido registraron la compra y luego luego lo enviaron, me parece excelente ese servicio, si le llego a encontrar alguna falla regresare a cambiar esta reseña, pero si no le quito ninguna estrella significa que no tuve ningun problema y el producto cumplio con todo lo prometido porque asi sea el mas minimo detalle,lo pondre aqui hasta ahora, totalemente recomendado el producto. me lo envio amazon, tardo 3 dias, y costo alrededor de 800 *actualizacion: tengo 4 dias usandolo, esta muy bien, lo uso para netflix, youtube twitch y google play movies. en youtube aveces cae la calidad a 720 en lugar de mantenerse a 1080, y no es que los videos tengan 720 max, aveces puedo notar que en algun video parte del video se ve en 1080, y otra parte baja, supongo que es dependiendo de la señal wifi, nada que ver con el aparato en si. osea que debes tener muy buen internet en wifi, el mio varia de 8 a 12mbs de descarga, la mayoria del tiempo esta en 12 megas, solo cuando cae es cuando cae la calidad de los videos de youtube, y especifico que en YOUTUBE porque en netflix que lo veo constantemente no me pasa, tambien hay pequeñas caidas y bajas de señal, pero no baja la calidad, me imagino que tiene un buffer de carga de video por adelantado y las bajas son cubiertas por ese margen y por eso no necesita reducir la calidad de video. lo de youtube lo puedes ver mientras reproduces video, ve a mas opciones (donde das like) al ultimo hay un icono de un insecto (o algo asi) que dice statistics y muestra la velocidad la transfer de datos y calidad optima, reproduccion y calidad del video que se esta reproduciendo, y ahi puedes ver que aveces varia la señal. claro, aparte de notarlo visualmente, es obvio cuando el video se ve a menos de 1080, luego luego se notan los pixeles pero bueno, eso es por el servicio de internet no por el ROKU asi que sigo recomendandolo 100%, mientras mejor internet sera mejor aprovechado

I used to watch NFL football games with the DirecTV NFL Sunday Ticket package. But it just became way too expensive to continue. I thought I would be stuck missing a lot of my favorite team’s games on TV until a buddy told me about Roku and the NFL Game Pass app. This Roku streaming player is much like Amazon’s Fire TV except it is much smaller, and you don’t have to pay anything to watch a lot of its available content. There are apps you can subscribe to that you do have to pay for, but these are clearly marked, and you can create a PIN to make sure others don’t sign up for these without your consent. After connecting it to an HDMI port on my AV receiver I simply turned on the TV (also connected to the AV receiver), and the little Roku streamer will walk you through getting it set up. If you don’t have your TV connected to an audio system you can connect the Roku device to an HDMI port on your TV. I had no difficulty at all in getting it set up and paired with my home Wi-Fi. The Roku device itself is very tiny. It comes with a strip of double stick tape to secure it to your TV, but I used some Velcro to stick it to the upper edge of a shelf on my entertainment center. The included remote control is almost twice the size of the player, but it is simple to operate and not overly large.
The Roku player provides you access to many free apps to stream content, and there are also many subscription services available. In my particular situation, I used Roku to download the NFL app. After paying for the NFL Game Pass subscription (which, by the way, is about a third the cost of the NFL Sunday Package cost) I was able to enter my information into the NFL app on Roku and stream NFL football games. It works flawlessly.
Even if you are not a sports fan, Roku gives you access to many movies and TV shows that are free of charge to watch (you do have to endure some advertising, though). It is a fun and inexpensive way to gain a lot of TV content that may not be available to you on satellite or cable TV. I highly recommend it.
