Does NOT work with digital channels.

This would be an ideal product if it programmed the current standard TV channels e.g. 15.1, 28.4 instead of old 15, 28, etc. I think a cable box that still uses channel numbers without a comma would be fine, but without. no I'm still happy that my kid can turn their TV on and off even though they only ever watch PBS's 24-hour cartoon channel. Cons: 1. Without a cable box, this remote cannot program channels, essentially making it a pretty on/off switch. Pros: 1. A nice feature is that you can…

  • Few competitors

SUCCESS - AT&T U-Verse - Panasonic TV

I'm so thrilled that it works AND the setup isn't too bad (at least not for our TV). We have a Panasonic TV and the first manufacturer code suggested in the manual worked to turn it on and off. Installation: The instructions are quite simple, starting with setting up the manufacturer code. Locate the TV brand from the list in the manual. Use one of the codes provided and see if the TV turns on/off. If not, try another suggested code for your TV. Then you need to do the same for your cable box…

Easy to program with Directv and Vizio

I'm so glad I bought this remote control for my kids TV. I was concerned it would be difficult to control and it was the easiest remote I've ever had to program. The included directions were easy to understand. I have a Vizio SmartTV and was able to program it with the first code on the list, which turns the TV on and off and controls the volume. The second step was to program the "set top box" which is your cable or satellite box, I have Directv. The first direct code was easy to program and…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Boring packaging

Non-existent instructions for programming the set-top box.

This is a great concept and functional simple remote, but the programming instructions leave a lot to be desired. There are many details about TV programming, but the programming instructions for the set-top box "simply replicate the TV programming instructions". Of course, if you follow these instructions verbatim, you simply overwrite the TV program code you just entered and your TV becomes unresponsive. I actually asked Sony for help with programming, I literally just needed the appropriate…

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Everything is great

Great concept but you need a lot of luck!

Just received in the mail today following the programming instructions which seemed easy enough Once everything was programmed and my favorite stations tuned in I gave it a try and found that pressing any numbered button brings up the cable tv menu . After reading the reviews, it turned out that this is an issue with Comcast. I don't have Comcast but I live in Alaska and have a GCI cable that works with the same products and settings. I have a new Samsung LED TV and my set top box is a Pace…

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Communication with seller

The child likes it, but there are disadvantages.

Bought this for my 3.5 year old. It's easy for her to work with and she likes that she has some control over the TV. I have several complaints about it that prevent me from giving it a 5 star rating: 1. I have an AT&T U-verse. The remote doesn't turn on the cable box, it turns on the TV and changes channels on the cable box when it's on. I had to teach my kid to turn on the cable box manually, after that she could use the remote control.2. There are 7 buttons on the remote control. Once you…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

I just received this product today and already I LOVE it. I bought this because I found it on Pinterest and for the price of $7 I couldn't be happier. A few things in my review - see below: PROS: 1. Works to control your TV and cable box. I hooked up a Samsung TV to an ATT Uverse cable box and it works great. 2. Be sure to follow the instructions for the letter T. They're a little sparse and a little annoying. Despite this, I was able to use this remote to turn my cable box and TV on and off…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors have arrived
