Best way to run Netflix?

Hi all,
While I'm reasonably savvy in the tech and Windows worlds, I'm probably best described as a newbie in the maker and linux and Android areas, so I'm hoping I can impose on you folks for some advice...

I bought 4x PINE64 units (2GB A64+) to build as media boxes for family, along with the official IR (non-air) remotes. Primarily what I'd like to get running is a box that can:
- play/stream from Netflix
- have a USB hard drive/stick plugged into it
- play music and movies from the drive/stick
- be controlled with a remote
- be an 'appliance' (i.e. have a friendly UI that is non-technical-looking for most common functions)

There seems to be a lot of different options for getting the above working, in various states of readiness, e.g. Android 5.1.1/6/7, Kodi, Linux, OpenElec, RemixOS, SPMC, other...

As much as I'd love to have the luxury of just playing with this stuff and experimenting myself, at the moment I'd just like to jump straight to a good and working solution.

Any thoughts or recommendations from your experiences?
