What customers say about "Key Specs"

Logitech Harmony One Plus Universal Remote Control

It's these Activities which are what this remote is all about. I come in, hit 'watch TV' and everything powers on, picks the right input, and off we go.
I have a big rotary fan in the corner of the room which has an IR remote. Took about a minute to get this added to the Harmony too :-))
I use a lot of tech at work and home and this is very very good. Makes the complicated easy.
It has withstood years of constant use, several dunkings in drinks, trampling on by a 10 stone dog and being thrown around by a toddler!
I now have a setup on the new remote that is named Watch a movie, than with a push of a button, it switches all three devices, on the right inputs like magic.

Logitech Harmony 900 Advanced Universal Remote Control with RF capability

it is easy to program and also has a brilliant RF capability that takes its signal past our coffee table.
The plethora of proper buttons means that we generally only use the touchscreen to select activities, everything else is done using the buttons.
You can assign each unit to either direct IR (eg, TV with a high receiver) or RF (eg, stuff in a cabinet or low down behind furniture).
The RF transmitter works fine for me. With the receiver inside a cabinet enclosed by 20mm thick doors, we never have a problem with the signal being lost.
Great placement of buttons (better than 885) makes it more intuitive to control.

What customers say about "Features"

Logitech Harmony One Plus Universal Remote Control

You can configure a lot using the web interface and be up and running in probably half an hour or less.
I've set mine to pause Sky TV after the power up of my TV, Sky+HD box and AV Receiver and input switching has been completed - works like a charm.
I had no problem setting up the Harmony One + for my rather eclectic audio-visual system.
Right off the bat, the Harmony blew me away with its simplicity. The remote is programmed via the web browser on your PC.
The online database recognised all my components, including my 20 year old Philips hi-fi.

Logitech Harmony 900 Advanced Universal Remote Control with RF capability

For me, there is more that this device CAN do than it CANNOT with the correct programming - so for complex AV kit setups it is an excellent choice.
Logitech remote controls are incredibly flexible, allowing multiple devices to be controlled from one remote.
The touch screen portion makes it intuitive for less technical persons - icons appear (customizable) mimicking real world buttons.
It even works with XBOX and due to the touch screen and icons, you can use it for quite a lot of basic functions.
I can even control my Dyson Hot (AM04) fan heater using the 900.
