It Just Works
My wife bought this for me to cheer me up when I was ill.

I have a TV, DVD player, Virgin Cable Box and Surround Amp.

It works great with them despite my TV model being really obscure.

Out of the box it was nigh-on perfect and with a mornings tweaking to service some of the more obscure idiosyncrasies of my TV, it is now an absolute delight. Can't look back.

Don't be tempted by cheap universal remotes - This is in a different ball park - we absolutely love it.

We are recommending it to our friends and family for Christmas stocking material.

Good remote, but it could be improved.
Mine recently broke, so I'm in the market for a new one, but in two mines as to whether to get the same one again.

I dropped it on the floor (carpeted) and the LCD no longer functioned, making it pretty useless.

It's defiantly not as robust as it could be. I'd noticed that the motion sensing that turns the backlight on when you pick it up and off when its doing nothing, seemed to fail not long after I bought it. Meaning if it doesn't switch itself off, it drains the batteries fast.

It was mostly problem free otherwise, the only issue I personally had was that when switching on my television (Samsung) it wouldn't always go to the correct input channel, which meant doing it manually on the remote.

Poor build quality spoils a nice idea
I'm all for universal remotes. I'm not even afraid of the lengthy setup that they usually need. It's an investment to save time later, after all.

Unfortunately, I don't think my Harmony 525 will last very long. It wasn't long before one of the volume buttons stopped working, so I reprogrammed a different button to take its place. It's flexible like that. Then the pain started coming off the directional pad, so the light shines through where it should not. All the ink has come off the number pad, so you have to guess where the numbers are. The thing creaks terribly if you put any pressure on it.

It feels like a lump of cheap plastic, especially compared to the beautiful Sky remote that it's supposed to replace.

So, I guess I'll be looking for another universal remote when this one gives up the ghost, and then I'll have to invest time in setting that one up.. again.
