Excellent product and a doddle to use despite only needing it because some chinless wonder at Google Chrome Cast, the next equivalent device, decided in their infinite wisdom to withdraw software support for installing its ability to use onto computers. Unless you have an Android version 5 Mobile Phone or more above of OS 11 Apple Smart Mobile which of course I don't have. That said, I love my new Firestick and personally for me, being reunited with the use of U-Tube. It also gives me internet access through the Firefox application and probably another application for internet access if I look further. A little something the customer support people didn't tell me but never mind. On the whole pretty chuffed !

The stick has an impressive front end homepage, which looks very slick, this skin however often gets lost and the stick software needs prompting back to using it. This happens once every 5 times of using it on average. Besides this, many of the links do not work and it is frustrating to see films/tv shows that look accessible that once selected cannot find a link to a provider. Many of the links fail to provide what you hope for. I suspect this is the case with any of these Kodi run devices so probably not inherent to only this sellers set-up.... this said, I have not used another one to compare, so not sure if it happens across the board. I would say that only 50% of the links to films work. I have been using computers in my work for 25+ years, so it is not a case of not knowing how to use the device. Overall I am happy with it.Read full review

Fantastic. This device reminds me of Sky back in 1989 & Sky in 1998 opening up a wide range of choice for the viewer. Firstly the set up is so easy to do, essentially plug in, turn on, type in your wifi details, log in as you would to your Amazon account & you're ready to go. It is nice & easy to navigate, much like when you get a new mobile phone you will want to have a bit of a play around to familiarise yourself with the layout & features. As far as the features are concerned, there are free apps & services you can use, there are the prime services available which you need to be a prime member to be able to use & then there are the other paid services such as buying or renting movies or tv series from Amazon & the other paid for services like Netflix. I have used most, if not all of the main paid for services on the fire tv stick & they have given me many hours of enjoyable entertainment. For my money this is one of the best if not the best streaming device available.Read full review

I’m really impressed with this, it was easy to set up, pretty much plug it in, sign in with your Amazon account, give it some idea of your preferences and off you go. All the usuals are there, the 5 mainstream terrestrial channels, plus a few others. As a subscriber to Prime I can now have my Prime movies on my tv rather than my tablet, which is a good thing. There’s plenty of content and apps, more than enough for me. Everything about it is designed for ease, I wish I’d bought one sooner if I’m honest. Definitely a great purchase.

As not especially 'tech literate' oldies we're still finding our way around our firestick but I'm sure we'll eventually suss out all it's many features! Actual operation is very easy, just give us time - oh for written instructions!!!!
