This item is easy to set . Easy to operate, works great with all mine electronics. Instructions are easy to comprehend.

This is by far the best remote I've ever used (minus, of course, remotes with an LCD screen). The manual provides all codes I've ever needed to program my home theater equipment, and I even found a program code to control my ceiling fan after some trial and error. Macro buttons at the bottom allow you to press one button and turn multiple components on/off. For instance, mine is programmed to turn on the TV, turn on the receiver, turn on the DirecTV and make the remote ready to command DirecTV by just pressing #1. Reverse that for #4. Limitless possibilities for the macro function.

My original Sony remote crapped out and I needed an replacement. Thought about buying generic but when finding this smart remote, all I had to do was load the batteries and that was it! The remote also controls my other Sony media products so all I need now is one remote. Wish other aspects of life was this easy!!
