Hdmi switch recommendations

We have an older sony flat screen with only 2 hdmi inputs. One I use for the cable box. The one left over is used for eithe the Apple TV or the Roku. I want to get away from changing the cable every time we want to use one or the other.

** should add my avr is old as well and doesn't have hdmi at all.**

Money has been a little tight and can't afford a new tv just for added inputs. Does anyone have experience with the switch in the link? Maybe there is one better ? This one seems to get good reviews by the amazon crowd.

Thanks for any suggestions

    Look for a Key digital switch. They work and are reliable.

    I reached out to the fellow in Michigan. He was in the same situation I was in with tv that has limited hdmi inputs.

    He was a pretty nice guy and agreed to ship it to me.

    I'll post when (if) I get it. Supposed to be in the mail tomorrow.
