Almost 5 stars except....

Finding 4k titles is difficult without a proper search filter. They only make Ultraflix movies searchable through the 4k spotlight channel and there is not a search bar for those you have to scroll through all the movies.Serious first works problems I know. Please Roku when I search the main movie searchbar please add movies in 4k to those search results. I'm not sure if this is Roku or Ultraflix's fault but please show all movies, including 4k( which look better even without a 4 k tv. ) on the main movie search menu.
Over all a big thumbs up though.

Not a cable killer yet.

I started out using this with wireless...that did not work at all. Even with high speed wireless I was getting the dreaded spinning circle more often than actual playing video. I ran a hard line and it seems to have fixed the problem. Even though this claims to be HD...the audio quality is sub par at best. Everyone sounds like they are gargling marbles when they talk and music sounds like very low quality MP3. I bought this to ditch my cable...but when I add on subscriptions that are comparable to my current channel line-up...the cost far exceeds my cable bill. I won't be ditching cable yet. Get a smart TV for a few dollars more instead.

I like the idea of the programming but was very frustrated with the nonexistent set up instructions. When we tried to set up using the remote, it was very slow and poorly designed. I ended up using my computer to finish signing in and setting my password.

Easy to use but limited in replacing my Dish Network because I don't have access to some of the usually channels.

compact

It's a nice compact unit. My only disappointment is that you just receive clips of everything. No, continual programing. Example PBS, History channels.
I would recommend this to a friend!
