Customer Review: Best Remote on the Market
Summary: 5 Stars
I was very skeptical when buying a universal remote. Most are not very compatible with basic components. I was very particular this time because I have a 400 disc DVD Changer that has an internal catalog. I looked high and low for the best bang for my buck. I found it in the Monster MCC AV100 universal remote. The WAF, Wife Adaptability Factor, is relatively low. My wife was greatly impressed with teh remote, the only issue she has with the remote is that it doesn't cook hotdogs.
The over quality is good and sturdy. There is one issue with the select button; I see it as the first thing to break because of how it protrudes, but it is still good quality. The rechargeable batteries are a good convenience. There was only one issue with the remote. I had to contact the customer service because there was an issue with the software communicating with the Monster server. I had to disable my firewall and anti-virus software along with ending the process in the Task Manger ccApp.exe. Then I was able to update the firmware and software. After all that it worked like a charm.
This remote is the best universal remote that I have ever used and would recommend this product to anyone with multiple components. It is by far the best remote on the market.
This is a follow up. 11 Dec 08
I have owned the remote for over a year and it no longer works. I had to replace it due to it constantly resetting and freezing. If I could change my star ratingi would give it three stars. I would not recomentd this remote there are far better universal remotes on the market.
