    Works as designed. I needed it after a flood washed away my other one. I got one for my other TV also.

      Hi Larry! Thanks for sharing your experience—and we’re sorry to hear about the flood. Glad the replacement remote stepped up and made things a little easier. Sounds like it earned a spot in both setups! Here’s to smooth channel surfing from here on out. |Angelica| Insignia Products| BBY-ExBrand_Insignia

    I purchased this remote but it was the wrong one. Turns out you need to know who makes your tv just to get a replacement remote. Who knew?!

    My 2 year old Sony remote was acting up, so ordered this as a replacement. Out of the box it immediately worked with my Sony 65" and my Sony soundbar! No effort. In fact, it seems to work better rangewise and aimwise. The downside is my old remote had a voice interface and this one does not. But to be honest I never used that much so won't miss it. The buttons are nice and crisp, and the layout is similar but not identical. Easy to get used to though. The power button even lights up when you touch a button to help with orientation, but the remote is tapered to make that easy. Overall, extremely satisfied with this product.

    Purchased to replace factory remote which had stopped working. Roughly the same size as original. Decided on this one since I didn’t want to have to program a universal remote. I don’t use my TVs apps for streaming (like the Roku better) so haven’t bothered setting up the app shortcuts.

    Unfortunately the remote that came with my nearly 3 thousand dollar TV lacked needed buttons!! I had to buy remote. The remote is wonderful it had all the buttons I needed. Why are TV’s especially in that price range not coming with one?

    The original Sony TV remote was starting to fail feature by feature. The Insignia replacement is very similar in design to the original Sony remote so it is easy to use. It connected immediately with our TV so there weren't any issues with programming, which was extremely helpful. Overall, a great product
