Pros Affordable, nice screen, MacroPower feature
Cons None really
Recommended it? Yes

Intro:

I use to own one of the universal remotes from the nineties, which essentially meant that I could control either my VCR or my TV or my Cable box. Nowadays universal remotes are much more advanced with beautiful portable screens and the ability to control your entire media setup with... Read full review »

Pros None worth mentioning

Recommended it? No

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...
