Great remote, appalling concept.

Date of Review:  Dec 26, 2005
The Bottom Line: Nice concept, poorly executed. You can't program it to do what YOU want, only what Logitech THINK you want.
Review: I'll preview this review by saying:
Remote - 4 stars
Method of programming remote - zero stars

The Logitech Harmony series of remotes rely on a web-based interface to set up the remote. When reading other reviews, it wasn't clear...

Works well, looks nice

Date of Review:  Mar 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: Genuinely reduces complex remote control fumbling without complicating things itself.
Review: After buying a new flatscreen TV then hooking up our game console, DVD player, VCR, and stereo system, we had 5 remote controls to deal with. Even our modest setup required remembering how our devices are interconnected then using 2 or 3 remote...

A great idea, but maybe only for the tech-savvy or extremely patient

Date of Review:  Sep 12, 2007
The Bottom Line: Only get this remote if the idea of spending time on the phone w/ Tech support does not bother you.
Review: After using a Sony learning remote for years, my system recently got much more sophisticated and I needed to upgrade to something with a little more brains. Enter the Harmony remote.

All of the different remotes in the Harmony line run in...

Good remote, Fair price

Date of Review:  Feb 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: Not sure yet. Build quality is not up to par with 600 series but the price is right. Good looks and good functionality are appealing.
Review: I purchased a 676 in late December. The upper right button didn't work consistently so I returned it for a second 676 which worked fine. The build quality of the 676 is excellent. You could easily drop the remote and expect it to work. It had a nice...

So Simple, Even a Woman Can Use It!

Date of Review:  Mar 7, 2008
The Bottom Line: Reasonably priced alternative to juggling numerous remote controls.
Review: (And before you accuse me of being politically incorrect, I AM a woman and not only female, but that rarest of breeds, a middle aged woman who appreciates the cool factor in techno gadgets that work). :)

Despite the fact I swore I would...

Keep searching for a better universal remote

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2006
Review: I bought this remote hoping to consolidate the four remotes I now have to use to run my stuff. Not too hard: Sony receiver and DVD, Dell TV, and Dish satellite box. That's all. The remote found all the devices through its internet interface, so that...

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2007
Review: I normally believe "you get what you pay for" but woah, not here.
This remote takes an hour and a half to setup, start to finish.
Then during testing, all kinds of problems. It won't consistantly perform the same operations. It loses...

Fantastic product. TRULY all-in-one remote contol.

Date of Review:  Jun 19, 2009
The Bottom Line: I would give it to anyone who was ever disappointed with universal RC's
This one REALLY works!
Review: I got this remote as a gift. I aways wanted to have one remote for all my electronics.
Over the years I had a bunch of them but no one REALLY delivered the promise..
I was skeptical about this one but then I discovered how powerful it...

better than the 880 but still bad

Date of Review:  Feb 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would not recommend this remote unless you just want to look at it.
Review: I owned a harmony 880 for about a week before returning it. Decided to try the less complex 520 with hopefully fewer software bugs. I liked this remote and it seemed to work a bit better than the 880. It still didn't like to learn as it should...

Try, Try again.

Date of Review:  May 20, 2006
Review: In hopes of retiring about 7 remote controls, I purchased the "universal" Harmony 520 from Logitech. I have several other Logitech accessories, but this was the first remote control. I was NOT at all pleased. The web-based interface (I'm using XP...
