Logitech - Harmony 700 8-Device Universal Remote - Black

If you are looking for an all in one remote that will control just about all your toys, look no further. For the price you can not go wrong $40-$50 bucks on sale. I am currently using this remote to control a Vizio TV, Channel Master DVR+, Samsung Blu-ray Player, Roku 3 & a Samsung Sound Bar System W/Sub and it works very well, it takes a minute or two to get the hang of it, but after that you will not miss having all those other remotes. Setup was a breeze and it is done by creating an account with Logitech online and bamn, you are all done. The only issue that I can see, since I had the remote for a while, is the slippery backside of the remote, it has no grip at all, or should I say very little grip, other than that it is a very good remote with a back-lit keypad and LCD screen. One more thing save your self some time and pick up some rechargeable batteries, it does work with regular batteries, but rechargeable ones work better and last longer. My package did say 2 rechargeable batteries included, but quality control must have been on lunch when the packaged mine, luckily I all ready had AA rechargeable batteries.

Needed a new remote because puppy used the TV remote for a chew toYou, so I didn't do any research ahead of time. Went to Best Buy because I knew the staff there would know more about remotes than "they are in Isle 12". A vvery nice, knowledgeable lady walked up and talked me through what would be best for me (I dont see a need to spend 100-200 on a remote). Setup was really easy, the builtin color screen talks to me in sentences, not cryptic codes or blink sequences. ithe display isn't touch screen, but I'm happy about that. The buttons around the screen you use to select things on the screen work very well. Everything on the display is crisp, we'll lit and easy to read. Plus all the buttons glow in the dark, so I don't have to angle it at the TV to see which button is which. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is sometimes it doesn't turn everything off when I hit the off button. However, the display always asks if everything did what it should, and has a 1-button process to resolve it. A minor annoyance at most. (See attached picture. The display is crystal clear, my iPad just didnt capture it well) Plus, the following week it went on sale for $10 less, spoke with customer service and they gladly rebat d the difference.

The remote was very easy to set up and get going. I had it set up and working about 20 minutes after I opened the package. Easy enough that my entire family had no problems working it. Only downfall I have come across is if the remote were to fall off the couch on to carpet, you have to go the guided setup process. It appears that the slightest drop the batteries loose contact with the post. It's a minor problem that will have to accepted.

I've been using Harmony remotes for a number of years and like them. They are easy to use and easy to program. I now have three of the Harmony 700s. Rechargeable batteries were the selling point for this particular model over similar offerings. I don't understand why this model has been discontinued. I did have one little recharging glitch. I think the battery was getting very low. When I plugged it in the remote would indicate that it cannot charge the battery. Since then, I've never let the batteries get that low and haven't had any problems.

I bought this when it was the deal of the day so i got it at a great price. However it was very difficult to set up but once i was able to figure out how to set up the activities i liked it. The only downside is it doesn’t work with the firestick or fire tv

Finally can put aside all of the remotes. custom buttons were key to this purchase and in this remote you can customize the buttons and the screen. Able to control TV and soundbar volume in one easy swoop. Haven't found a device it can't control. it even can control and an hdmi switch. Programming remote is not pain staking. Would recommend for all.

Was easy to setup and customize. Quite often, but less than half the time the remote won't perform all tasks for a function. Hitting the Watch TV button I have set to turn on TV, cable box, set TV input to cable. Not all those steps will happen, TV might not turn on, or cable box won't. I just have to hit the help button and everything fixes itself. It does make life easier, and may get another next time it's on sale. The ability to recharge the battery is a huge plus.

I bought this remote to get rid of the remote clutter we were experiencing. Cable remote, blue-ray remote, sound system remote, Amazon Fire and Chromcast. Remote is easy to setup since you do it online. No codes to punch into the remote like other remotes I have had. I can easily switch from TV, Blu-Ray, Amazon Fire and Chromecast. Switches the HDMI ports on the sound system which is the master unit for all of my devices. Remote is rechargeable which is nice. I liked this remote so much I gave it as gifts to my extended family.
