Please bring back to stock!

When will this be returned to stock? This product is far better than the newer Generation-3 product. It has a REAL network slot, better processor and is incredible in everyway. This is the box that finally made me a full time cord-cutter. EXTREMELY disappointed that the new generation of the Fire-TV is actually a step back with only a wifi option and the processor is not as good .... very surprised!!! Mine is still working perfectly 2 years later, but if it dies ... I am not sure I will buy the new generation. I LOVE the fact that is has a REAL gigabit port and the fact that lies flat on a table rather than as a dongle. PLEASE BRING BACK or Create a new box that actually competes with this one!!!!

Refurb........my a..! This unit was packed perfect and I could only tell it was refurb because of the sticker on the box. Wow, I contemplated this purchase for too long, but took the time and searched UTube for reviews of so many Android units that it became too much. I looked at the Minix U1 and U9, Nvidia Shield, Azulle Byte 3 and also Aspire, H96 Max and Pro, but for now this is worth the price. Don't get me wrong I will get the Minix or maybe set up a Windows 10 unit like the Azulle or even the AcePC but I think I was getting ahead of things. Do yourself a favor and download PLEX, set up a server, add your music, videos, photos, and personal movies and WOW! Also add a few Chromecast around the house so everyone can use Plex and also play their personal stuff anywhere and wherever they are in the house. Back to the Fire TV 2. There were comparisons on the Gen 2 vs the Gen 3 and hands down, the ability to add an SD card, usb, and direct Cat5 plug for speed vs using the wireless option is supreme in my book. I setup the Amazon, Netflix, Hulu , Logitech wireless keyboard for adding apps faster, and a few others and this unit works great. And yes, I forgot to mention Alexa, which works just fine. The speed, picture quality and sound makes this the best choice over the Gen3 and also the Firestick. They need to bring this back and maybe add the optical port, bump it to 4gb rams and this would be a top seller over the China boxes out there. As Oprah would say, " you get a GEN 2, you get a GEN 2, you get a GEN 2!

Looked like new, worked like new. No complaints.

It was a choice between the new Fire TV cube or the 2nd Gen Fire TV for me. I already a couple of Fire TV 1's, and outside of Ebay, I didn't think I'd be able to purchase a Fire TV 2 from Amazon new or refurbished anymore for a reasonable price. The thing that bothered me about getting the cube was it was too new of a release, thus plenty of bugs, plus I don't have a single use for voice control deciding to continue to control things with my Harmony remote for all my hardware, which is fine because it works great. I am also using both Ethernet and USB ports on the Fire TV 2. Since the Fire TV has the ethernet built in as well as USB without having to purchase an additional Ethernet / USB mini adapter to turn the Cube into the same specs as the Fire TV, I thought why not just stick with the original. The processor in the Fire TV 2 in comparison to the Cube is faster with no external additional cables to bother about and that also suits me fine, because I've got enough cables all over the place. My only issue with this certified refurbished Fire TV 2 at the start, was getting the remote control to pair up with the box. Took me a few minutes. Don't know why, but haven't had a problem after that. I currently own a few Fire TV 1's and fire sticks, but I'm still happy with getting a 2nd Gen Fire TV, refurbished or not while I still could, before they were all gone, because I would never use the voice features in the cube.

Netflix, HBO Go, Amazon Prime and XBMC on one box... could it get any better?!

I seriously wonder why it took me to get FireTV for so long. I originally had a Roku XS and then I stupidly bought a Roku 4. Both devices were all right but neither could handle 5.1 audio from Netflix on my Vizio sound bar (essentially your device must be cable of handling Dolby Digital Plus and nothing less using Roku). I finally decided to give FireTV a try and I'm amazed. Not only does it convert DD+ to DD on Netflix and HBO Go, I can install XBMC (Kodi) on it! I wish I knew about this before I bought my Roku 4 and HTPC. I now literally have no use for my HTPC anymore... FireTV can handle EVERYTHING now and all with DD and DTS 5.1 audio. Even better, I have a ton of smart devices and 3 Echos... I can now control all of these devices directly from the remote. This is seriously one of the best purchases I have made in the past year.

Much better than Apple TV!

I bought this after being an avid Apple fan for the last 10 years. I had old style two Apple TV's and even bought a new Apple TV to help with me cutting the cord to DirectTV after 11 years. I switch to using the Apple TV with the DirecTV Now streaming service. After the Apple TV would no longer let friends or family airplay to it because of new updates or let me load any third party apps I knew it was time to switch. It was a great switch to the Fire TV and I have not looked back. I have been able to load numerous apps that are not available on the Apple TV such as Showbox and Kodi. My biggest complaint was the Fire TV remote was not able to control the volume on my sound bar like the Apple TV remote and was not able to turn my TV or sound bar on or off. The Sideclick remote was exactly what I needed. I was able to program the remote to control power and sound level, along with change the input on the TV. I would highly recommend using the Fire TV. Pros: Works extremely well Allows 3rd party app installation Much cheaper than Apple TV Allows use of amazon music which Apple TV did not Cons: Home page is not at visually pleasing as the Apple TV Remote does not have volume controls Remote is not touch sensitive and has a very loud *click* noise when pushing buttons.

... gen refurbished Fire Tv Box THESE are the absolute best Fire TV BOX ever made they have all the ...

I have had no issues with either of my second gen refurbished Fire Tv Box THESE are the absolute best Fire TV BOX ever made they have all the options available no extra purchase's needed to make it work all inclusive in the box as it came from amazon except the HDMI cord but as with all others its the normal thing no short cables like that new one and then you need an adapter for Wi-Fi to get plugged into the wire to work correctly, what are they try to pull with all of us being sly after the sale they say that's not included and make you buy and then your not able to use the new fangled version fire tv box not worth the money if it was 20$ not in my eyes and stay away from the fire stick even with an adapter still lags so why bother spending the extra money just make Amazon bring back the 2nd generation Fire Box tv version and make it all happen all over again it is the greatest one their ever was !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So it's kinda of useless right now

Well I was so excited about getting this, had a firestick which my daughter took to college. So I thought I would get the Fire TV. I saw a refurbished Fire TV and purchased it. When it came to my house found out that they sent the wrong power supply. So it's kinda of useless right now. Will purchase a power adapter and hope for the best. Will write another review once that comes in. Well have to say that Amazon came through. They had called me about my review and refunded me for my power adapter when it came in. I was pleasantly surprised when this happened. The Fire TV is working like a champ. I commend Yvette and Amazon customer service for doing the right thing and making me a very happy customer. Amazon rocks!!!!.

5 Stars but.........

Thank God I could get a refurbished unit at a higher price than the new version! The new version is horrible and more like a fire stick. No Ethernet port! Love Amazon but they dropped the ball on the new version and it is a glorified fire stick not box. Horrible marketing and a serious flop on the new version as who wants something hanging from a connection and a DONGLE to connect an Ethernet port! NO ONE that wants a box! Again love amazon but the new fire tv is a joke. So happy I got this and just pray Amazon works out its differences with Google and you tube as my kids watch 90% of their view time on You tube! Amazon show them some love and sell their products as well. The better product wins and that coming from someone who has dots in the home and no interest in Google home!

Spectacular 4K Fire Box

I was at first tentative about ordering anything refurbished but I now and again try to save a buck or two. To my surprise this Fire TV box came in what looked like brand new pristine condition. I found it to be extremely easy to set up and I am very happy at how it performs. I read the horror stories about people getting these refurbished items and so I am surprised that everything is working well for me. I can't believe it took me so long to get a Fire device. They really rock and makes my 4K UHD TV looks better than ever. Runs all the apps I need except the Charter Spectrum TV app like my Roku Ultimate on another TV in my home. Side loaded the app but won't allow me to sign in. But I am still giving it five stars because of how fast it is and the 4k performance is stunning. I even like the screensavers as the colors are stunning. I recommend this item especially if you are trying to cut the cord.

Finally a box that can do it all

Wow.....glad that these Refurbed Gen2 boxes were available again. This box solves the puzzle for me finally. It has all the major apps that I need (MLB, NHL, Sling), that replaces the Nvidia Shield (limited app support, poor side loading)....and it has the versatility of Kodi (3rd party apps) for my home collection replacing the Roku 4. The FireTv also lets you tweak the IP settings (something Roku won't do) which is absolutely necessary for certain applications. The only thing it doesn't do is Atmos and HDR. For all the supposed horsepower of the Shield this FireTV box puts it to shame when streaming very large files from my media server. Perhaps a better 5ghz connection? The Roku media app is just too restrictive and poorly laid out to handle a large media selection. I am not interested in the intrusive Alexa feature so I can't comment on that. Even though this is considered taking a step back this box is clearly better than the Firestick and it has built in ethernet which has been moved to a post purchase accessory on the new offerings. After dealing with Qboxes, Shields and Rokus....this one is finally a winner.
