5.0 out of 5 stars Great Deal for the Roku Ultra
Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2024
Like many people I wanted to move away from cable TV to a streaming only option since most cable TV providers have decided their business model is to price themselves out of the market. I had looked at various streaming boxes and decided that since back in the day I owned the original Roku box when Netflix got into the streaming game, I might as well go back to the brand that I had experience with in the past. So I looked around at the Roku website, and looked at all the features I wanted and landed on the Ultra for a few reasons:

- The look of the box
- Remote support for RF and IR remotes (Important if you have an IR universal remote)
- Wired Ethernet connection (Yes WiFi works, but wired is better if you have the connection)
- Included remote is rechargeable and has voice commands

Why did I go for the refurbished/refreshed unit? It was about 30% less than a non-returned one, and it was worth it for me in case I didn't end up liking the Roku platform might as well go for a better priced one with pretty much the same warranty. (Oddly after buying this Roku sent me 40% off deal on a new box a few weeks after getting this one.. so now I have two of them).

Set up is pretty easy create an account, zip code, wait for software updates. Some of the usual streaming services apps are already added to the main screen, and can be removed if you do not need them, adding additional streaming services apps is simple enough, and the inclusion of Roku live TV at no extra cost is a nice bonus for people transitioning away from traditional live TV (you cannot DVR things with this but it helpful if you want to watch the news or live sporting events). It works with my Harmony remote, and with the Roku skill, basic voice commands worth with Alexa.

Con: I hate the big white inspection sticker they put on the front of the refurbished Roku boxes. Seriously they could have put it on top, on the side, on the bottom.. but no, right on the front and off to the side so it is an eyesore. Even in the middle on the front would have looked better. At some point I will get some WD-40 and a q-tip and remove it, but is an odd place to put the sticker. But seriously that really is my only issue and if that it all I have to "complain about" it is not a big deal.

Best purchase ever, I love it. and the recharable remote is great. Also the ear plugges work well when under the dryer after washing hair. I get multple channels and avoid high price cable.

5.0 out of 5 stars amazing product that doesnt die on updates
Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2024
I just purchased this to replace an amazon fire tv. Coincidentally or not, my fire tv box was working one day and on trying to boot up the next morning it would not work. I just talked to my son and strangely enough, his did the same thing at the same time. Coincidence or planned update to put the fire tv out to pasture. I tried multiple tvs I tried unplugging multiple times and a lot of frustration on this thing. I have never had a roku die on me yet. This is about the 3rd fire product to stop working on me. I will stick to roku from here on out as I have found them to be extraordinarily reliable. Set up was a breeze and the feature of finder and a jack for headphones make this the best item ever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant... esp. for $50
Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2023
I got this when on special for $50. VERY impressed, especially as I was about the junk my HiSense TV as it was taking soooo long to select channels and move between inputs (BTW, HiSense TV software is lousy but their panels seem to be pretty ok esp. for the price). Anyway, one of the blogs suggested I try the Roku. In a word, brilliant. Easy to configure, quality is good (no worse than what I got off my HiSense) and the response time is snappy. The nice thing is now I can disable all network connectivity on the HiSense and turnoff MaChina :). The one comment is, the remote provided needs to be charged and does not hold charge for an extended period - would be nice to get say a week or two. But who cares as the mobile apps is what I now use. Since loading the app, I have not touched the remote. The one thing the app does not do is is adjust the TV volume but using voice recognition via the app, you can change the the volume. So impressed, I purchased a second unit for another TV and disabled MaChina :).

5.0 out of 5 stars Works well
Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2024
So far the Roku works well. The quality of the picture is better than any of my fire sticks. Overall I like it except it will not work well with my Nose theater system. What I mean is you can't operate the sound volume or turn it on or off. Using it directly thru the TV works all functions. Unfortunately with my system everything goes thru the Bose. Not a deal breaker, I still like it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does what we need
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2024
We replaced an older Roku and it's crazy how much better and faster this is compared to our older one. The remote works well, was easy to connect and set up, and streaming has been working great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much Snappier than the Roku and Prime Sticks
Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2024
I bought this as an upgrade to my Roku stick that lost the ability to use the IR from the remote. Using my phone to control the sick was a pain in the butt.
This is faster, better picture, doesn't overheat like the stick and a discrete addition to my TV stand. I have not used the earbuds or its earphone adapter.
