    I bought the Logitch Harmony 650 remote to eliminate the clutter and inconvience caused by needing seven different remotes to control my components. The Harmony was very easy to setup via a software app I downloaded from the Logitech Web site. You just need to enter the make and model of your components such as TV and DVD player and the Harmony programs the remote with the commands found on the original remotes. If for some reason a command(s) is not entered by the app it can be manually entered via the software very easily. Once your components (Logitech calls them Devices) are entered you can then create activities that perform a sequence of functions. For example, I created a Watch TV activity that turns on my TV, changes the TV to the input my cable box is connected to and then turns on the cable box. All of this is done by pressing one button on the Harmony remote. You can create many activities to do other functions such as watch a movie or watch Netflix. I highly recommend the Logitech Harmony 650 Remote. It has made my life a lot easier!

    Love this remote. Was needing to consolidate device remotes/functionality for my Dad but didn't want to spend $200 on a fancy universal remote. This Logitech was/is perfect, was pretty easy to set up (as long as you know serial numbers of all your devices), and has made life so much easier for operating a HD TV, Apple TV, Yamaha A/V receiver, router, DVR, and DVD player at once. Great purchase.

    I would recommend this remote. It is not top of the line but for the money it does a good job. It is our second one. The first one is 6 years old and some of the more frequently used buttons are getting a little slow in response but still work.

    I have purchased 4 of these remotes so far. 1 for my household and the rest for my customers. People who are using more than 1 remote to control their entertainment devices don't know how easy it becomes with just one! The Harmony 650's are easy to set up and work great for an inexpensive price.

    I bought this remote because the one for my DVD player died. I walked into the store thinking I'd just get a replacement, but ended up liking the idea of combining multiple remotes into one. It was easy to set up, and is easy to use. I especially like being able to turn everything off with one button.

    I love this remote, and most harmony products for that matter. I am able to use this remote to control my projector, fire tv, light switch, and fan. The set up is very easy and is painless. My only complaint is that you cannot switch the positions of your activities on the main screen. Great remote!

    Easy set up (confession-daughter did it in 10 minutes max). Replaced old one that got soaked by toddler. Easy to use, love the "help" button that fixes things when they get out of sync. I use for cable box, tv and sound bar.

    Would have given it 5 stars but my wife still doesn't have it down all the way. Programming it is easy and I looooove the fact I don't have to hunt down 4 remotes every time I want to do something with our entertainment system.

    I bought 2 of these for the two TV locations we have in our house. Both locations have cable boxes, soundbars and blu rays in addition to the TVs. Setup was incredibly easy. Just log on to the website and follow the instructions. If you can read, you can program these with no trouble.

    This remote has enabled us to reduce the number of remotes needed to operate the cable box, TV, receiver, and DVD, from 4 to just 1. Does take rather involved setup, but works well, and the help button is a real plus.

    The remote is extremely easy to program. I set up seven components in less than 20 minutes, five different brands - and one component that has to be at least 15 years old. Logitec did an impressive job with this product.

    These remotes are fantastic if you have a couple of devices in a room - I could in theory use one for each of my rooms - but I have a hard enough time losing the remote in one room, let alone 3 - I have an entertainment center in my basement ( Roku, Bose, TV ), and my living room ( Roku, Xbox One, TV, Sound Bar ) and bedroom ( TV, Roku ) - These devices are easy to setup, highly customized, and work with just about any device you could own. By using activities, You can manage which devices are used in which scenario - i.e. On my living room remote I have watch an activity for Movie -- it turns on my TV, goes to the right input, turns on the sound bar, and uses the volume keys to control the sound bar - When I select Watch TV as my activity - it will instead set the remote to use the volume keys on my TV as I dont want to use my sound bar for every show I watch - no need to have immersive sound to watch the nightly news. Highly recommend this!!

    Does what I wanted

    Needed a remote that would control my Smart TV, DVD, and Sound System. Saw this one online and looked up my components by model number on the Logitech website and they said it would control them all. So I purchased the unit. Very simple and easy to program. Just plug it into your PC with USB, go to the proper Logitech site in the instructions, create a user account, enter your model numbers and set it up. I have found it controls EVERYTHING that the OEM remotes did. Now 1 remote instead of the 3. Just a little tricky learning where some of the little used commands are for some of the hardware units. But the LCD display helps out quite a bit. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting get rid of all those remotes and go to just one. It works well with the Smart TV commands and we use it for Netflix and all the other Smart TV apps with no issues. Make sure you look up your hardware model numbers first on the Logitech website to make sure they work with it.

    Easy to program, very easy to operate. There is a "help" button to fix any errors the remote makes in an activity (i.e you point the remote the wrong way and everything but the TV comes on) and it really, really works well! You dont need to dig into the device menu at all, just hit the help button. All of my devices were available in the database, and i do have some odd ones. The only things keeping it from 5 stars are some ergonomic issues - the buttons are very similar in size and shape making it difficult to pick up in a dark room, also the backlighting is pretty weak.

    This was a great product for the money. It programs very well to all IR devices, and seems to run seamlessly with xbox, most tv models, and my cable box. The MyHarmony program makes it incredibly easy to manage the settings on this remote.

    Great Family Solution

    This is my second Harmony 650 remote and was purchased on sale at the end of the year as a backup in case the other one dies (it's been dropped). I have recommended this remote to several friends as the "just right" solution for controlling a system with multiple components, giving you easy control of your entertainment while having access to detailed functions for those who understand them. It allows anyone in our family to easily use our system to watch TV, stream a movie, listen to music, or play a blu-ray. For better or worse, my kids could control the system easily before they were 5 years old, numerous babysitters have had no problems, and my parents can use it as well. I find the fixed, hard buttons for volume, channel, play/pause and other key functions more convenient than virtual buttons, especially while watching a movie. Both the tactile feel and quickness for these functions serves them well over waiting for a screen to wake up on touch-screen remote. The key layout is very good with the buttons falling in thumb reach with the remote in had. The soft buttons at the top of the remote are fully programmable and can be re-named. I programmed them for settings that I use often that would otherwise be buried in menus on the TV or receiver. PROGRAMMING Programming the remote is pretty straight forward. For each activity, it asks you what equipment to turn on and what device should control the volume as well as what inputs to use on the receiver and TV - it programs the rest. If you want to go further, you can program a series events (macros). The included remote codes have included all the equipment we have ever used, but it will also learn commands from old or odd IR remotes. LONG-TERM USE We've had our first Harmony 650 remote for 6 years and it is working well even after many drops onto hardwood floor. Over the years, I have upgraded or changed components (dvd players, streaming devices, cable boxes) and the remote has made this seamless in actual use. It's possible that nobody noticed when I updated the Roku streaming box. PLAYSTATION 3 CONTROL We have the Harmony adapter that allows for IR control of the PS3, which was very convenient when we used it as the primary streaming device. Not sure if this is still available. COMPONENTS in USE We use this remote to control: 7.2 channel receiver, TV, cable box, Roku 2, blu-ray, lighting, PlayStation 3 (with separate Harmony adapter)

    I am a big fan of these remotes. I have one for each room. Needed to replace after my kids dropped the old one too many times. The construction is the same as the previous models but the setup software is easier.

    I had an older version of Logitech remote that was wore out after years of use so found tv is remote at a reasonable cost. It was very easy to set up with the exception I'm having tv to amp problems but think that is because my new TV is trying to control it. Haven't had time to figure that out yet. But the remote itself works great. Nice it has all the smart tv controls for my Samsung 4k uhd tv. I did not find it very difficult doing initial set up as long as you know the model numbers of the equipment and what parts of the equipment you need to work with the activity buttons you are using. It's a good remote that does what a remote should do. Plus less remotes laying around is the biggest bonus.

    This remote was easy to set up using my laptop and the included remote to computer cable. In a short period of time I was able to program the remote to turn on my DirecTV box, TV, and surround sound system. The price was reasonable for what the remote can do.

    Absolutely live this remote. Gone are the numerous remotes for this device, that device, and oh yes that one too. I now have one remote to so it all. Goodbye clutter. The harmony is so easy to program. The only complaint is "Why didn't I do this sooner"!!!!
