Do it make a noise a human can hear? Ours does not and our cat just looks at it when we push the N button. So far we are disappointed in the remote.

We weren't too unhappy with the player at first except for the terrible placement of the remote sensor. We use these in the car and mount them on the headrest. You have to place the remote above the edge of the player and just inches away... useless and frustrating.
Less than a year after getting the player, it began skipping and restarting the DVDs. Very frustrating experience and we are already replacing it.

The remote is very sluggish to respond and is very difficult to steer and accelerate at the same time. Also it's a lot smaller than I thought it would be.

Somewhat disappointed. Remote is incredibly easy to lose especially if you have kids. Doesnt work well in a medium sized room. Feels a lot weaker than a blade fan

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but after having the Harmony Remote 1000 for a little over a year now, I've come to the conclusion that this remote just plain sucks.  I purchased this as part of a new home theater I built.  All of the remotes that came with the hardware I purchased work flawlessly, except for the Harmony.  Well, specifically the touch screen portion of it.  The actual physical buttons work just fine.  Power on/off, check.  Volume up and down, check.  Change channels (one up or down at a time), check.  Recent channels and mute buttons?  Check.  Using the touch screen for anything useful beyond powering up the systems - worthless.

Initially I thought it was something in my IR system that might be bogging things down.  But when I go get the remotes that came with the devices the 1000 is supporting - they all work without a hitch.  So I can only believe it has something to do with the touch screen and it's lack of good interoperability with the rest of the hardware/software.

I was surprised this wasn't an RF remote when I first purchased one, and Logitech has a new RF one coming out that I guess I'll probably get and try it out.  Hopefully that one is better because it has a lot more physical buttons vs. the touch screen.

It's certainly not because I'm not "holding" the virtual buttons down short enough, or long enough, or in the right way.  I can see the signal indicator showing it's sending something.  Or it buffers up the actions I wanted it to perform, and then they all go through at once, or not at all.

I've tried turning the unit off and on again by removing the battery.  I've tried reinitializing the device by re-doing the entire setup from scratch, and it always falls into the same glut of uselessness.

If Logitech ever needs someone to test a future release of a product, let me know - I'll be more than happy to help to make sure whatever replaces the 1000 or the 1100, is far better than this little bundle 'o crap.

Oh - did I forget to mention, this is my second 1000?  The first one was DOA.

Thanks for listening to me rant.  I appreciate it.

Not broken, yet..battery door doesn't seal all the way when battery's are inside of it. Poor signal range compared to the original remote, also have to be pointing streight at it unlike the real one. Also the picture is misleading because this just has some numbers ect on it, no vizio sticker. No keypad but I knew I didn't have that..  It does work though witch is good so far.

It worked well as far as the audio was concerned but the remote leaves a lot to be desired. There are limited functions and they are cumbersome to access. My prior unit which was 8 years old had a much more robust remote but it died. Ah well.....

The remote is just annoying. Use a universal remote or prepare to want to be annoyed. Everything else is fine.

I am very disappointed in this device.  The problem  I am having is the Remote will not stay paired to the Fire Tv set top box.  Every time I need to use it I have to constantly pair the remote to the box and this gets very annoying every single time I attempt to use it.  I purchased this device on 8/28/2017 not even a month old yet.  I also have a Fire Tv Stick an it works perfectly.

Not all the buttons on the remote control worked.

I was suspicious when I opened the box because the styrofoam was cracked and crumbly, indicating to me that this may have been a defective fan that had been returned.  I think I was right.  The fan seems okay (although louder than I had hoped) but the remote does not work.  I need the remote for my purposes.  I'm disappointed that they did not do a thorough test of the fan and remote before reselling the product.  That's just bad business.

I will contact Amazon (and Holmes, if necessary) to see if they will send me a replacement for just the remote so that I do not have to return the whole big box.  I'll report back when I hear from them.

Hi, I'm giving this product three stars rather than the full five cuz the remote w this product has some issues. The media box so far works great the channels are awesome but the remote included is very hard to operate. No matter where u point the remote it does not connect w the box and so  we have to stand practically right in front of the box to get it to work.

It's f-in ridiculous the amount of time someone has to spend to get the damn back off the remote. I should send it back. You have to know that the remote is not user friendly. BS!!

I want to like it.  It has so many positive reviews, but I just can't so far.  Set up was fairly easy in the fact you just follow the prompts.  It does take a lot of cables to make it work rather than just two HDMI cables which would be much easier and less messy.
But I can't get the remote to work with my system.  I use Surewest and it does have it listed as a provider, but the menu buttons don't work and the worst part is the My Recordings button for my DVR doesn't work.  When I hit it, it blinks the light on the DVR but nothing happens and the recordings I have made don't come up.  So if we can't figure this out, I will send it back as this is why I bought it.
In addition, the video just isn't that good.  It is really small on the IPHONE because it shrinks it so it isn't even the full screen of the IPHONE.  On my computer the image is blurry, not pixulated, but actually blurry. If i figure it out, I will update my review, but as of right now, I just can't recommend it.
But others seem to like it.  So that tells me that maybe it is something I am doing wrong.  I did contact customer service and they tried a little, said they didn't know why it was acting the way it was and told me they would call me back.  That was last week and no response.  I will try again later this week to see if I can get it working.
