Review on 📺 Basic Replacement Remote for Westinghouse TVs - No Voice Recognition by Athena Harris

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works well, just insert batteries and go!

Since I couldn't find an exact replacement remote for this TV that would cost at least $200 (obviously there are only a handful of these), I was relieved to find what else the TV was practically unusable and less than two years old. All I had to do was put in batteries and point the remote and it works great! However, a few features are missing. First, it doesn't have an Alexa voice control feature, and second, it lacks a three-dash button. The 3-dash key is the one we use most, especially for apps like Hulu when you want to go to the program details page to flip through episodes and the like. However, we were able to find a workaround. Also, this remote has an HBONow button, but when you press it, you go to Revain Music. It's ok since we can still access all applications from the home screen. Although it doesn't look exactly like the original remote, it works 95% the same and was the solution to our remote control problem. I will never buy this brand of TV again because the company made poor quality remotes and then didn't keep them in stock to ship to customers when the one that came with the TV broke. However, until we update the TV, this remote works GREAT!

Pros
  • Remotes and Accessories
Cons
  • Too long to wait
