Streaming services are more popular than ever these days, and luckily, you don't need a smart TV in order to watch all of your favorite shows and movies. You can access services like Netflix, Youtube, Amazon Prime, Hulu, and more at the touch of a button as long as you have the proper accessory.

Right now, Amazon is selling the Roku Express streaming device for only $18 ahead of Prime Day 2024, which is the lowest price it has been in two years, according to price tracker camelcamelcamel. And you don't even need a Prime membership to take advantage of the rare deal.

Although, it might be worth it to sign up to ensure you unlock full access to the biggest two-day sale of the year come July 16. It only costs $15 per month and includes other perks like fast, free shipping, Prime Video, Prime Gaming, and more.

Amazon Live host JD Roberto featured the device during a live event recently and called the Roku "good and very highly sought after" and raved that this is a "crazy good deal" at only $18.

"Because I'm a tech guy and because I review tech for a living...I own a couple of different Rokus and they all do different things well," Roberto said. "You can put a Roku in guest mode [for travel] and it will automatically log you out the day you check out [of a hotel]."

Roberto isn't the only one praising the streaming stick — it has racked up nearly 31,000 five-star ratings and has sold over 10,000 times in the past 30 days.

"The Roku Express is a compact yet powerful streaming device that brings a world of entertainment to your TV," one reviewer wrote. "The device supports HD streaming, delivering clear and vibrant picture quality. Despite its small size, it packs a punch in terms of performance, streaming smoothly without buffering issues. Overall, the Roku Express is an excellent choice for anyone looking to upgrade their TV with a hassle-free streaming experience."

Now is your chance to enhance your streaming experience for only $18 with the Roku Express while it's on sale for a limited time.
