Love this remote [Posted on 2008-02-05] I got the 10 device before the 8 device and must say I am impressed with both of them. It was programmed with ease. Learning of the remote is such a nice feature. I would recommend this to anyone that needs a good universal remote. Great thing is that it works with Dishnet as well as Directv . Having had Directv it was hard to find a universal remote that would work but this one did the job. The 8 device is much more comfortable in the hand then the 10 device which seemed a little big for comfort.
it has been good..., but now no support? [Posted on 2008-08-12] I have been using this remote for over a year, and have been happy with it. Good flexibility, great price! Now I have just gotten a few new components in my home entertainment system, and so I need to get the new codes for those items. Those codes are nowhere to be found, and the support websites of the company are either badly out-dated or not working at all. They do not provide any support phone number at all, and their e-mail support seems to be down as well. Unless this is a temporary problem that they are fixing, this looks like a company that is going out of business. I advise: check for current support availability before buying from "One For All".
Didn't work with my Kenwood Stereo [Posted on 2008-08-19] I wanted this remote to work with my Kenwood stereo, it worked with the TV just fine but it wouldn't for the stereo.
Stopped working in 10 minutes [Posted on 2008-09-03] The LED failed on mine less than 10 minutes after I started to program it. Without the LED you can't set device codes or use learning mode, so it was effectively useless. I guess you get what you pay for...
What A Value for the Price [Posted on 2008-10-21] I just can not believe I can do so much with the remote and it only costs between $10 and $15. I have one for every TV in the house and have given them to friends and family members. I absolutely love the macro feature where all I do is press one button and it turns on my DVD player, switches inputs on my TV, turns on my A/V receiver and sets the correct input on the receiver.
The only bad thing I have to say is that it is not the easiest in the world to program and without the book you might as well forget it. Luckily I have three books. I also have a problem controlling the A/V receiver, but it does fine for the Directv Satelite box, TV and DVD Player. It handles the simplest of functions of the receiver like volume and input source just fine though.
