I was never able to get the "Universal" remote for my Comcast cable box to control my Olevia TV or Philips DVD player. So, I'd been using three separate remotes to control my TV/DVD system. A few months ago the "Volume Up" control on my TV's remote quit working so I had to do something different.
A family member had told me about the Harmony Remotes so I decided to try one. I bought a Harmony 700 at Best Buy. At first I was a little wary about it's claims. But it was very easy setup via the online tool. It's a no-brainer to use and so far, it hasn't needed recharging in a little over a month.
I should've bought one of these several years ago!
What's great about it: Controls everything.
What's not so great: Could've been a little cheaper.
