Logitech - Harmony One Remote Review

The Logitech Harmony One Remote is an absolute must have!  I really don't know how we functioned without it.  The constant battle of finding a lost remote; those days are long gone!

The Harmony One is a all-in-one remote that actually works.  When you take the remote out of the box, the first thing you will notice is the sturdiness of it; quite impressive.  The second thing I noticed is the remote actually has a touch sensitive display screen on it.  One more thing...IT'S RECHARGABLE!!!!  NO MORE BATTERIES!!

While the remote is charging, it is recommended to write down all of the makes and model numbers of the items you want the remote to control, ie: cable box, tv, surround system, etc.  You will need the makes and model numbers in order to install them into the remote.

After you have charged the remote and compiled your list of makes and models numbers you are now ready to program the remote.  Programming is very easy and the remote comes with step by step instructions. 

You will hook your remote up to the USB cable that comes in the box and then to your computer.  Then you will log on to Logitech's web site to begin customization of your remote.  This process does not take long.  The site will then prompt you to test your remote.

VOILA! You are finished programming your remote!  Occasionally, you will have to update your remote through the Logitech web site.  The remote will notify you when to do so.

I have programmed into my remote 6 different items.  You can also program the remote to control your lights.

The thing I like most about the Harmony One is you have only 1 remote for everything. It takes the clutter of all the other remotes off my coffee table, and stops the searching for missing remotes.
