My family and I switched from Comcast cable to Verizon FiOs TV in late January.  The package we selected includes 4 boxes, each with its own remote control.  After nearly 10 years with Comcast, this unwieldy new remote took a bit of getting used to, but I was finally starting to know my way around this alien device, and then -- BAM!  Before the end of March, t...

I did TONS of research and recommended this product to a man I know who recently lost use of his arms and hands.  Not being able to change the TV channel himself was a source of much frustration.When the remote first arrived, both he and his wife tried to get it to work for about an hour and couldn't get it to do a thing.  Their friend stopped over and was able to pick it up ...

My children thought this would be a great gift for me.  I am in my 50's and yes my eye sight isn't what it used to be. Funny huh? We were looking in a store called Brookstone in our local mall. They saw this displayed and brought it over to me.  I laughed and then thought hmmm how interesting.  I read the instructions because I was curious if it really...

The Apple remote is small... It is the length of 3 quarters end to end, the thickness of about 3 stacked quarters and about the width of a quarter. Very small... Small enough to pop into my pocket. It also kind of looks like it is dressed to impress with its the tuxedo like appearance of a white body with a black strip at the top. Very crisp.I have had remotes for computers in the past and not ...

Let's face it, a programmable remote is extremely personal. I found it to be an 80% solution. I received this remote for my birthday. I was excited, thinking it was a chance to replace six remotes with one well built one. The programming wasn't too bad, but I'm not sure I would want my technology frustrated parents trying to set it up. I was able to find all of my equipment on the l...

I have had the One For All remote control for 1 year, and it has done a great job. This remote is the kind that you can program to use with both you television and VCR at the same time. I like this feature in particular, because I can flip through channels on the TV while I am rewinding or fast-forwarding a movie. This remote takes 4 triple A batteries, which seem ...

The "talking" aspect is just about what made me buy the remote in the first place, aside from the fact that years ago, I was in need of a remote that would serve as a replacement for my television's, since it just so happened that it, all of a sudden, "magically" stopped working.The remote itself provides to the user a comprehensive wide variety of features that would ma...

 I wanted to tell you about these cool wall units with remote.  I purchased them on QVC which is one of my favorite channels to buy from.  Anyway, we purchased these because we have two lamps in our bedroom and because our bed is so high it's hard to reach to turn them off at night.  These have come in handy you simply plug the wall unit into the wall and then plug in th...

I got this remote because it seemed like a good deal at the price we paid for it. The first one that we bought we ended up taking back because we thought it was broken. We got a new one to replace it and found out it was just the batteries that we were using. We had put used batteries in and it wouldn't work at all.I would say this is a decent remote. I guess you get what you pay for. The c...

I have had the best RCA tv/VCR combo for about 14 years now. One of the first purchases I made when I got my first job as a teenager. The tv has held up well, I've had no problems with it whatsoever. I can't say the same for the remote that came with it. It gave it a good shot but over the last couple of years certain features on the remote have just stopped working and others you have ...

My daughter bought me this fantastic remote control.  She said I have too many remote controls to keep track of which one goes with what product.  This remote control has the capability of controlling 8 devices.  I have my television, my satellite dish, my vcr and my dvd player all controlled by one remote now.  It is an awesome remote control!  It even has a low batter...

When I got Dish Network, the first thing I made sure I had was a DVR. TiVos are pretty expensive and the Dish DVR service is perfect. It doesn't have all the fancy internet features as TiVo but it works for me. Anyways, back to the remote. Its pretty simple and self explanatory. I've had the remote for a little over 18 months and you still read most of it. I use it everyday, so usage is pretty ...
