The sales man recommended this remote because of the ease of connecting and using it. It was very much as he said, and we just brought it home put in the batteries hit the button and the TV was changing channels. Best remote ever.

The best thing I loved about this remote was the fact I hat all of I had to do was take it out of my he box, add the batteries and begin using it . No set up needed. The buttons are very easy to use because they are somewhat similar to the original remote of the TV

A Great Insignia Replacement for a VIZIO Remote

I owe special thanks to the Best Buy Associate who recommended this product to me and showed me where in the store it was displayed. I never imagined that another company would market a remote control for VIZIO TVs, and when my VIZIO remote stopped working, I thought I would have to replace the TV even though I liked my present VIZIO TV. This new Insignia remote works better than my original VIZIO one ever did. I am greatly pleased with this product and with the Best Buy Associate who suggested it to me.
