Recommended it? Yes

Choosing a remote for a collection of audio, video, and gaming devices is not an easy matter. You not only have to consider what types and brands you want it to control. You have to think of how much effort you will need to devote to programming it, and how much help it will give to the people... Read full review »

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.

The RM-VL600 is a quite large remote, it was thicker than I expected from the pictures... Read full review »

I purchased this Logitech Harmony 900 as an upgrade from my Harmony 880 when the 880 volume control stopped working after a couple of years of heavy use. Since I had already used the Logitech software to program my 880, it was the same software to program the 900. I would have expected that all of... Read full review »

Mu 890 view screen quit working after only 1 1/2 years.  You can't send these to be repaired,you have to buy a new one.  The 900 replaced the 890, and works nicely if you are in close range.  It has nowhere near the range of the 890 which is a bummer.  To control the system on...
