Customer Review: Very Good Universal Remote
Summary: 5 Stars
I have used universal remotes for a lot of years now. I have always been a gadget guy so keeping the remotes around for my media setup, especially with kids, is just not practical. For several years I have been using this one for all remote. I have replaced the remote three times for a variety of reasons but have always returned to the same basic model.
You would think with being a gadget guy I would go in for a real expensive remote that could literally do everything. I have tried the more expensive remotes. Believe it or not I have not enjoyed anything more complex then this remote. The others are just too much work for relaxing. I like and my family likes the more relaxed usage of the simple one for all remote.
Pros:
- Inexpensive. Very easy to fit in a your budget.
- Easy to program.
- Works with just about any device even though the codes haven't been updated in a while.
- Nice large buttons.
- Button layout is logical and easy to get familiar with.
- Lasts a long time. I have broken or lost 3 but that is not the devices fault.
Negatives:
- This is not a learning remote. You can search for codes but you can't import functions from other remotes.
- Does not work well with DVD/VCR combos. This is the only reason I have considered moving up.
- Buttons do not light up or glow in the dark and that would be nice.
For the price I could not ask for much more.
Customer Review: Great price, works as described...only one small complaint
Summary: 5 Stars
Cheap, works, retains the programming codes so you don't have to re-enter them a lot.
Only thing I don't like is the shift button. You have to use it for several things when controlling the DVD player, and it doesn't have a light up button or anything, so you never know if "shift" is currently selected or not. This matters when you press a button and it performs its alternate function rather than the one you intended. A light-up button indicating "shift" is activated would have been great.
Other than that, it all works. It's nice to have a remote that DOESN'T have 300 buttons. This one is simple enough to use...I control an ancient Sharp VCR, a Sony flatscreen TV, and a new Philips DVD player without any problems. Codes were simple and all worked fine. Best couple of bucks you can spend!
I would give it a 4 if it cost $30, but because of the incredible bargain and only a small complaint, I have to give this product 5 stars.
Customer Review: Had it working with TV in under 60 seconds...
Summary: 5 Stars
My old remote control stopped working and I was a little skeptical at purchasing something for this small price for a 4-year-old generic-brand television. I have an Apex television. There were five codes listed for Apex and the first code entered was the code that worked!
This remote manufacturer has several codes for over 130 television brands (Yes, I counted!) with some brands having multiple codes. I was surprised at the easy set-up. If you follow the 4 simple steps, you should have no problem.
Customer Review: Awesome remote control. I definitely recommend.
Summary: 5 Stars
I highly recommend this remote control to anyone who is looking for a simple remote at a very inexpensive price. I used this remote to program my TV, VCR and DVD player and had it operating all three devices within 5 to 10 minutes of taking it out of its packaging. The only feature I would like, which is doesn't have, is glow-in-the-dark buttons but for this price I cannot complain. I am very happy with this product and would certainly buy it again.Customer Review: Easy to program
Summary: 5 Stars
I have purchased this remote 2 times over the past few months. I have purchased a total of 6 for company use in our fitness center. The "other" brands of universal remotes would constantly become unprogrammed and then were very difficult to reprogram. This remote is so easy to program and easy to use. I feel very good about my purchase and urge others to purchase the product.
