    I bought this because I wanted just one remote to control everything and because it was blue. I have found it extremely difficult to program. I even called tech support to no avail. I'm not using it and it's sitting in a drawer gathering dust

    Cool idea that the keys are backlit but they only lasted not even a week. Now I never use it. Blue is cool but wish I just saved my money

    Would not work with my Polk audio soundbar. Controls each component separately rather than controlling activities as I was used to with my old Logitech. There is a void in the marketplace after Logitech got out of the remote control business

    Buttons too small. Always hitting the wrong button - it’s just easier to use 3 different remotes.

      Hello, Patricia, thank you for your feedback. None of our universal remotes work with FireStick or Roku sticks because they use Bluetooth to communicate and not IR signals.

If there is anything we can do to improve your overall experience, we would greatly appreciate the opportunity. Please call us at 1-800-654-8483. We are open Monday-Friday from 7am-8pm CST.

    As long as you’re directly in front of your TV and within 10 feet, you’ll love this remote. If you’re slightly off center, even by 4 feet, and more than 10 feet from the TV, you better be ready to maneuver and bend and reach to get the remote to work.
