Customer Reviews
Don't buy, doesn't work for more than a few months!
I paid £80 for this remote when it first came out, and while it was relatively simple to set up, looks great and feels nice in the hand, after several months the buttons stopped working properly and the entire remote would light up when I pressed one button. It has now been sitting in a drawer for months because it is out of the warranty period and useless.
I've since purchased the Logitech Harmony remotes as a replacement and don't have a single regret.
If you want to get a better idea of this series of remotes, go to amazon.com and look up this same product.
Clever device but still too Stupid!
The Kameleon and One For All have been a complete disappointment. It unfortunately only manages to replicate some of the functions on some of my remotes so I still have to have more than one remote out. The web support is dreadful, out of date and useless. Why can they not list all the updates as they come out, to save you having to email them and then phone them to download the latest software. If you have modern up to date audio and visual gear you will find the kameleon is utterly pointless as you still need the OEM remote to use the equipment properly. If you just want it to look cool, turn the volume up and down and change channels then this is the remote to have. Yes it is clever - but it is still far too stupid to make it worthwhile buying.
Worth every penny!!!
Seven remotes on the coffee table was a little too much so I looked into buying one that does all jobs. The look of this one and the reviews made me buy this one straight away. It is a bit on the big side but it does everything asked of it brilliantly. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is the design if the underside of the remote. It has a big wave like bulge on the right hand underside of it that houses the batteries. This bulge makes it a little awkward and annoying to hold if you're left handed like me. It seems to have been designed with right handed people in mind. Apart from that though I couldn't fault it..
