Cons No real user manual. Web access required to program
Recommended it? Yes

This remote worked great for all my devices. I use this one remote for my upstairs setup and my downstairs setup. I just use different names for each device. I have two other TVs to add but I'm too lazy to add them and don't use those TVs enough to really care.

Pros Excellent programmability, usability, ergonomics, convenience
Cons Web interface awkward; need to re-program multiple times to get settings right
Recommended it? Yes

I spent a lot of time researching the right remote... one that would give me all of the ability to control various components of my system as I'd like to without reaching for other remotes, and at the same time let my wife figure out how to play a tape on the VCR without calling for help!

Pros price, range, strength.
Cons set up, layout, quality, effectiveness.
Recommended it? No

It is unfair to fault this remote at the price that it sells for, but luckily that's what I am here for! I've been trying to replace my failing URC R5 for a while now and it looks like the search goes on.
