Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have to tell, this is the most wonderful and easy to use device I ever owned. I have a few Google cast sticks in my home, but the ROKU is much much better! I accidentally stumbled up on the thing as a recommendation from our cable guy. Where we live, Time Warner Cable was taken over by Spectrum and recently they decided to go all digital so every TV in my home needs a cable box, which was a sudden surprise because we have 6 TV-s and we just did some remodeling recently and work extra hard to have the TV-s on the walls neatly. We did not wanted to have anything around them because the space is limited and after all what's the point to hang a TV on the wall nice and flat and then install a stupid cablebox somewhere sticking out 3 times more and collecting dust... I know whit long enough HDMI cables and RF remotes we could solve the problem after all nothing is impossible these days but everything is extra cost and again just because Spectrum cable decided to not to send signal in their antenna cables anymore... So in this upsetting situation our cable guy came and save us whit a great advice, to buy a ROKU stick and check it out. The reason why the ROKU, because this is the one and only media stick which supports the Spectrum cable app and we can watch all the channels what they provide and we are paying for it already! Of course ROKU supports others as well, like NETFLIX and even Google Play, so they don't discriminate anyone! I can't do anything just recommend this little stick to everyone! I was worried about not to be able to record my favorite shows anymore, but the cable guy said, don't worry, because everything is on-demand these days, even if it's not the same day, you might have to wait a day or two, but that's okay we can live with that. Just in case we still have a DVR cable box in our living room on the biggest TV for shows like the Superbowl... :) Set up was very easy and the stick supports 2.4 or 5 GHz WiFi signals so the streaming is buffering free all the time. Our cable guy said the main reason why they go all digital, because in the old way, the TV signal eat up half of their bandwidth and this will help to speed up the internet as well so at the end it's a win-win situation for everyone. And the ROKU stick helps a lot, we don't have to rent a cable box from the cable company for $11.00 per piece per month... We got ours on Amazon but it's widely available of course and for $40.00 it will bring back their price under a few months compare with the renting! The available channels and contents are overwhelming, we still learning what is worth to watch, but the combination of Netflix and Spectrum and our own Google account, the possibilities are virtually endless. And if you can't find anything you can stream your family or vacation movies from your own phones and tablets. Or listen Pandora radio for example! AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME! Now I just have to buy 3 more for the kids rooms... Yay kids! :) It is very rare when I write reviews but for a company who works this hard and created such a good little device they deserve it! They even give away free HDMI extenders if your TV doesn't have a side HDMI port and you can't connect the ROKU stick in the back because your space is limited (which is the case with one of my TV-s)
