Logitech Harmony® 550 LCD Remote Control

Review: The harmony remote is in a class by itself. It's smart, remembers what devices are powered on, knows the difference between hitting "video4" for the four device, or by hitting "input/channel" then "input select" 4 times to get there.
It is...

Review: This advanced universal 550 remote really does the job! With some brief instructions my wife and three daughters can use it without needing help or "calls for Dad" to turn on the TV! It replaced 5 other remotes and I use it to control the following:...

The Bottom Line: If you want a user friendly and programmable universal remote, this one is the one to buy.

Review: My wife was tired of our ever growing pile of remotes so I went out and picked up the Logitech 550 to "hopefully" get it down to one remote. What I was expecting was an expensive remote with a complicated setup and plenty of tweaking along the way...

The Bottom Line: In summary, this is a costly remote, but it can do things most others can't. The more complex your needs are, the more worthwhile you'll find one of these.

Review: I've been trying all sorts of "Universal" remotes over the years, trying to find one that can actually take the place of my 6 or 7 assorted remotes that came with my AV devices. I've basically steered clear of anything in the $100+ price range, with...

The Bottom Line: Definitely better than four or more remote controls, it makes it much easier and much simpler.

Review: We purchased our Harmony 550 on the advice of a technical rep of the company that makes our A/V receiver since we were just getting too many remotes and it was cumbersome to say the least.

Our setup included an A/V receiver with an iPod...

The Bottom Line: I wouldn't recommend this remote to my worst enemy, and I wouldn't even accept one a gift. Avoid at all costs! There are better remotes at half the price.

Review: I'm a techie and I have always been able to fix almost any problem with electronic devices. From PC software issues to repairing DVD players, etc. Having said that, I honestly feel that this is the WORST remote I have ever used, and quite possibly...

The Bottom Line: Great way to consolidate your remotes. Easy to set up. I didn't have to even read the manual. It's the way a universal remote should work.

Review: I purchased the Logitech Harmony 550 Universal Remote yesterday, and I'm very happy with it. I've used other universal remotes before, but this one is really different. What's different? It uses PC or Mac software to help you set up your remote, and...

The Bottom Line: All in all I highly recommend this for everybody.

Review: This is an amazing little remote. The design is sleek and modern. It looks much nicer on my coffee then the 5 remotes I had before.

Setting it up was pretty easy. You do need a computer (mac or pc) with internet access to use the software...

The Bottom Line: An absolute must if you have three or more devices...but be ready to slog through a setup period.

Review: "Stupid universal remotes. They'll never understand me", I'd grumble disdainfully as I ripped open a new 20-pack of AA batteries. "They just don't get it. MY setup is different!"

That's true. My home theater setup is different, in the same...

Review: This remote could have been perfect, but it is far from it!

The functionality is all there. Learn any function, custom labels for commands, cinfigure how you want it, but...

Miserably designed software:
The software requires...
