    • Spend a little more and get a remote that works

      I bought this remote because it got good reviews on CNET and was cheaper than the Harmony remotes. This remote comes with a short set of instructions and is programmed on the remote screen rather than your computer. The biggest problem with this is that the remote codes stored inside the remote can never be updated. So if you buy products that are newer than the remote the codes probably won't be available. I spent hours trying to program it and on the items that already had codes in the remote it wasn't too bad. But I have a new Samsung LED tv and a new DirecTV HD-DVR. Neither of these worked with the codes already in the remote. I attempted to manually program all of the buttons, which took a lot of time. Some of which could have been saved with a better manual. After all of this I realized that by programming the remote manually you don't have separate buttons for on and off. This is really annoying if you already have some components on and you want to use one of the activities. For example if you already have the cable box on and you want to use the "Watch TV" activity...the remote will turn on the TV and then turn off the cable box. This completely eliminates the purpose of the remote activities. After fiddling with this thing for a couple of weeks I broke down and bought the Harmony One. It took 20 minutes to program on my computer screen, and it did everything I wanted it to without even having to tweak it. I love the Harmony. I would strongly recommend that you spend some extra money and get one of the Harmony remotes. If you buy a device that is newer than the remote the Harmony can be updated, unlike this remote.

    • Does not recognize directv HD receiver

      I was hoping for a universal remote, one in exchange for the five I had. The remote has many features and feels good ergonomically. It programed the tv, bluRay, and other components but would not take any of the codes for my HD directv dvr, tried for hours with all preprogramed codes, nothing worked. Since I use directv most often, I was disappointed with this purchase. The instructions are way too simplistic, a common thread when I googled troubleshooting. I may give to a relative as it is of little use for me as a true universal remote.

    • Great Product

      Does what it says. It is universal remote that works on any IR product and has good range around the house. One missing feature is UHF band that could be useful to control my Dish Network box in secondary rooms and my bose system. Judgement still out on the battery consumption as it is a recent purchase. So far 3 weeks in and still working.

    • Best Gifrt

      I got this as a gift for my friend. He loved it. He stated it was easy to set up and worked on all of his electronic, even a system that was almost 10 years old. He wanted to know where I got it so he could get one for the bedroom.

    • Universal Digital R50 Remote Control

      Good remote for the money. It will control a lot of devices. The only downfall were the instructions, they could have been more detailed. Once you fumble your way through, it was pretty easy to figure everything else out. I am considering getting a second one. Great remote and good value,

    • R50

      AWESOME!!! I previously had a Harmony that was $400 and it was so difficult to set up and one component would not sync with it. This R50 was so simple and quick and works GREAT!! i love it!
