What the Community Says
PureVPN has a mixed reputation, but a lot of people stick with it because it’s cheap, has lots of server locations, and can be pretty quick when you land on a good server. It seems to work well for basic “give me a US IP” needs and general streaming, and some folks say speeds are consistent enough that pages and videos load fast without a fuss. Setup help gets a nod too, especially for Windows users who follow the website guides.
The biggest hesitation is trust: PureVPN still gets dragged for past “no-logs” controversy, and some people don’t like where it’s based. On the day-to-day side, it can be hit-or-miss for streaming (buffering, bans, or long loading at times), and a few people complain it struggles to connect or requires lots of server hopping. Also, features can feel uneven across devices—like the kill switch being limited—so you’ll want to double-check what you get on the platform you actually use.
