Great remote solution hidden components
Customer Rating
4.0
I bought two of these units as the components in my living room and media room are hidden behind cabinets.
Set up is pretty simple, and the remotes reliably turn all the components on when I want to watch TV, and off when I want to turn it off. The remotes also very reliably control my receivers and the AT&T Uverse set top boxes.
Two points stop this unit from getting a five:
1. The remote does operate the Xbox One. It will turn it off and on, but that's it. During set up, Logitech mentioned that my Xbox needs an update for the remote to work - my Xbox is completely up-to-date and the Logitech remote doesn't control the device.
2. The smartphone app is unreliable. I had to restart setup a couple of times. Now all of the smartphone apps are set up, but can never find the hub on the network to control it. I have an over-engineered mesh Wi-Fi network that is super reliable, so I'm pretty sure that my network is not the problem. Primarily we use the remote, which works wonderfully.

Other than those 2 small things, this is a fantastic system. Pretty easy to set up, and really easy to use - my wife loves it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Connection
Is this device controlled via Bluetooth or is wireless needed? Is IR sensor included?
Wireless (Wi-Fi) is required for the remote (or your Smartphone/tablet) to talk to the hub. An IR sensor is included in the package if your components are not all within range of the hub.
