Rating: - Potential Buyers Beware!
Good concept, unfortunately it does not work.
Until the device was connected and I started programming it, only then did I fully get an idea of the concept, and it took very little longer to find out how flawed the application of that concept was.
Before buying, I did my homework online first to check EVERY item I wanted to use it with was in the Logitech database, and was very impressed as every one was. On receiving it & connecting to the software the items are indeed in ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent - Quite Easy to use
Bought this for £30 from amazon.
I got ordered this on Wednesday and got it on Friday, great. Started setting it up at 830 Saturday morning, finished by 9am! Oh, and a nice touch is there were batteries already in the remote and four spares!
Now have my xbox360, amp, skyhd box and HD TV working via one remote, how cool is that ?
I can see where some reviewers think it is a bit fiddly but hey, it's going to be, there are that many button combinations it just ... Read More
Rating: - Works well
This remote is great value for money and does the job well. It is simple to set up and works with all my devices. It took me about 15 mins using the software to set it up and I didn't have any problems at all.
My first 525 had a backlight problem which was solved once I got a replacement.
If you are looking for an all in one remote that is cheap but works well, this is the one for you.
Rating: - Good but poor longevity
I was frustrated by remotes to control my TV, DVD player, AMP and Sky box so I went for this entry level remote. I was impressed and after the pain of programming the remote proved to be invaluable.
However, after 18 months a couple of the buttons have stopped working including that which selects devices, as such it is now unusable. Have I been unlucky, perhaps but I'm not sure as most Harmoy remotes use the same design if I will buy another.
Rating: - A universal remote that works
This is the first univeral remote I have ever had that actually replaces my other remotes. People seem to think the setup proceedure is complicated, I really didn't find this the case at all, you do need to know the make and model number of your equipment and it takes a while to go through the setup on the internet but it is hardly complex. It is definitely worth checking that your equipment is supported on the website before buying as it looks much more complex to teach the remote for unlisted equipment. ... Read More
