Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the Harmony Smart Control 8-Device Universal Remote's easy setup process and affordable price point as positive aspects. The remote is seen as a suitable replacement for lost or damaged remotes. However, some users express dissatisfaction with the small size of the buttons and the requirement for a hub to operate the device.

    This is just the remote. You need another part to complete this. Remote works great.

    You must have a hub but if you do the app allow a good amount of customization for this remote.

    I would just recommend getting the hub only. The app you can use is better than the remote itself

    Once you get past the somewhat technical set-up process it is an excellent remote.

    It's not a reliable remote. You need an entire system of other products to get the remote to work. This should be stated more clearly. This is an additional remote, not a stand-alone remote.

    PLEASE READ FULL DETAILS!

    Don't fall in to the trap that I did on this and make sure you read the whole details. I only read part of them and based on the title assumed it was a universal remote. I'm not sure why they list this they way they do because NO WHERE on the box does it say it's anything that closely matches the title. In fact, the box CLEARLY states that it's an add-on remote. If you look at how AMAZON lists the device, they clearly state what the device is in the title. I brought this to the attention of Best Buy Customer Care and they just wanted to argue with me that it stated it in the description. C'mon Best Buy, get your act together and change the title of this product listing to match with it says it is on the box! But, shame on me for not reading the full description and reviews.
