I bought this remote after having a lengthy discussion with the best buy sales associate. I have been pleased with the perfomance of this product so far. I used to have four remotes now I only use this one. All of my electronics functions are able to be adjusted using this remote. I really like the fact that the back light comes on as soon as I pick it up. I no longer have to juggle several remotes just to relax and watch tv or listen to music.
What's great about it: Rechargable batteries, motion activated back light

I have had mine for about 2 months now without experiencing any issues. I have always purchased Logitech remotes, and have always found them easy to set-up and easy to use. This one is no different, and I like having a color screen and the ability to recharge the batteries with the included adapter. Great job on this one Logitech!

I owned a RF50 Universal Remote for several years and replaced it with the Harmony 700 when it began having issues. The setup is done across the internet through Logitech's web interface which can be slow and a little confusing. Once the H700 setup is complete it is extremely easy to use. It is very lightweight but may not take much punishment. The remoter will sense when it is picked up and wake up for use. The battery seems to last several weeks from one charge.
What's great about it: Controls all my A/V devices (Satellite, TV, Home Theater) and has a long battery life.
What's not so great: Must be connected to a computer with internet access to program.

This remote has so many options I have not even had the chance to take advantage of its full potential yet. So far it will do anything I need. It just seem to take a little to get used to

The manual gave a link to download the software which easily and quickly transferred all my of settings from my previous remote (510 I think?) to this one and everything works great. I expected some issues with the transfer, but had none at all.

I had an older version Harmony Remote that I only used to make my wife's life less complicated. The older version had the DVR controls at the very bottom of the remote, making it less than handy to use those buttons while holding the remote. I elected to use my Directv remote for that reason. The Harmony 700 design has these buttons up about 2 1/2" from the bottom making those functions much more convient to use while holding it. Pros: Programming the remote is fairly easy. Just get together the model numbers of your equipment, plug in your remote and follow the instructions to register your remote and download MyHarmony software. Add each piece of equipment, check out the operation and you're set. If you need to change your setting, that to is simple. I love the way the buttons have a light click to them, they just feel like they are high quality and should last. You can add your Favorite Channels added to the LCD screen, I really like that. One the my favorite features is having the buttons to skip 25 seconds forward and 6 seconds back is a real winner for me. That really sold me on this model. You won't be disappointed wit this one, clears up your remote clutter and make life a little easier. Who wouldn't like that? Cons: This model has rechargeable batteries. I do a lot of skipping forward watching golf and football. I have to recharge the batteries once a week. Not great....That's why I gave it 4 stars.

Worked well for my older TV and VCR/DVD combo. Rechargeable batteries with a USB charger. Nice back-lighting turns on when the remote is touched, Many devices are selectable via the program to set-up the remote. Easy to use, Improvements - back light for the main buttons on top the remote (TV/Movies/Music/...). Does not controlblue tooth device including the Wii.
