Has lasted me through Coovid and Beyond
By Bunny on Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2025
I bought my Roku Streaming Stick back in 2020, and it’s still one of the best tech purchases I’ve made. It was super easy to set up—just plug it into the HDMI port, connect to Wi-Fi, and you’re ready to go. The interface is simple and user-friendly, even for non-tech-savvy folks. I’ve used it daily for years to stream Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video, and YouTube without issues. Pros: • Long-lasting performance (still works great in 2025!) • Compact and travel-friendly • Fast streaming with minimal buffering • Works with most TVs • Easy to navigate remote and voice search Cons: • Occasionally needs to be restarted if apps freeze (maybe once every few months) • No power button on the remote (minor inconvenience) I’d highly recommend this for anyone looking to upgrade an older TV without smart features or anyone who travels and wants to stream on the go. It’s great for both tech beginners and seasoned streamers. For the price, reliability, and convenience, this little stick is seriously impressive.

Buyer Beware - Please Read This Before You Buy
By Patti S on Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2018
BUYER BEWARE - I've purchased Roku players in August 2012, May 2015, and this new Stream Stick+ in 2018. When I had a problem "activating" my new Streaming Stick+, I was given a number to "Contact Support Toll Free to Activate Instantly". I called the number and was told that since I had already registered 2 other Roku devices, in order to Activate this 3rd device, I would need to pay $70.00 to have a PREMIUM account. I told them that I didn't need nor want a PREMIUM account. I asked the customer service rep, to deactivate the first Roku I purchased in 2012 and then I would only have 2 registered devices on my account. I was told that - (1) Even if I deactivated a previous Roku player or (2 )if I opened a new account, I would still have to pay the $70.00 in order to register my Streaming Stick+ . So that is how Roku rewards it's returning long-time customer, by charging them a fee of $70.00 to activate more than 2 of their Roku devices! So, in addition to paying for the device itself, you now have to pay an extra $70.00 to use it!!! I am hoping this review will alert other potential buyers to Roku's new policy of rewarding their repeat customers. Patti
