Very Quick
"Before upgrading to the Streaming Stick I explored avenues like the Amazon Fire Stick and Google's Chromecast but decided to continue with the brand I knew and trusted."
"We could not be happier and bought a second Roku which has performed similarly."
"* Have bought two of these and both are terrible for streaming."
"It even has a button on the remote for Netflix."
"* A true pain to install, three calls to roku, hours of tedium, and the remote just does not want to work even a quarter of the time."

"Before upgrading to the Streaming Stick I explored avenues like the Amazon Fire Stick and Google's Chromecast but decided to continue with the brand I knew and trusted... The ability to control power and volume on this remote (the older one does not) is amazing... I no longer have to worry about finding a place to set my streaming-box because there isn't one."
"* Have bought two of these and both are terrible for streaming. Loses connection all the time and when it does work, the picture is distorted. Have a could Roku 3 boxes that work great."
"The best part is the remote works the TV power and volume... It also plays Netflix much better that the DVD player. It even has a button on the remote for Netflix."
Less Quick
"* For many years, I was a loyal user of an older Roku model... Before upgrading to the Streaming Stick I explored avenues like the Amazon Fire Stick and Google's Chromecast but decided to continue with the brand I knew and trusted... The primary reason for me to upgrade was lag and this model has reduced that to zip. The device responds instantaneously and all the new apps for Roku work perfectly... The ability to control power and volume on this remote (the older one does not) is amazing. I can now use my TV for all my purposes with just the one... I no longer have to worry about finding a place to set my streaming-box because there isn't one."
