Digital camera reviews of Logitech Harmony 890 Advanced Universal Remote Control

Digital camera Review: Excellent Product But Lots of Support Needed
Summary: 4 Stars

The reconditioned unit I bought was great. The physical installation was easy, but a number of my components are old and getting everything to work took a lot of calls to tech support. First level support varied from very good to pretty marginal; second level support was excellent but took almost 24 hours to get to a 2nd-level tech. My set-up was not supposed to require use of the IR repeaters, but it did, and even with the IR repeaters plugged in, the TV field effects overwhelmed the remote signal unless I closed the doors of the cabinets in which the remainder of the components are housed. Tech support didn't figure this out so I had to. It turns out that the position of the RF extender is critical. With all this, I'm more than a little worried about what will happen after 60 days when phone tech support is no longer available. Why-oh-why can't there be a good manual available for download??
