Digital camera reviews of URC RFS200 PowerPak Bundle w/ MasterControl RF20 and PowerBlaster
Digital camera Review: Don't hesitate
Summary: 5 Stars
I was starting my remote search thinking that a Harmony was my only choice that would satisfy my needs. I'm so glad I expanded my search to enclude Universal. This remote has saved me hundreds from the cost that the Harmony would've cost. The remote programing was very easy, even the macros. The RF feature was a very important feature for me and this thing has worked flawlessly with my setup. All my HT equipment is now in my closet, out of view and I haven't had any reception problems at all with the PowerPak. I'm not even using any of the blasters and have my components on three different shelves. It's been working now for weeks with out any issues what so ever.Digital camera Review: Dont buy.

This thing is a piece of junk. Don't buy it!!!
Go with Logitech, I should have.
Digital camera Review: Driving me crazy.
Summary: 1 Stars
The instructions are very difficult and incomplete. The CD that accompanied the controller had very little useful information. I would not even recommend this controller to even an extremely savvy user. My son is a Senior Engineer for an international electronics manufacturer and he could not complete more that three of the unknown number of steps necessary.Digital camera Review: Easy to program and use, effective.
Summary: 4 Stars
The remote "learned" all but one seldom used command for HD TV (change screen format), but everything else works like a charm. Once programmed, the RF commands were automatic. I moved all components into a closet behind the wall mount TV, the master blaster worked virtually anyplace I placed it in the closet due to infra-red reflections. Just plugged it in and started using. Didn't even need the plug-in infra-red transmitters. The remote feels solid and well constructed. Some of the buttons could be a little bigger for my taste, but then you'd have a larger remote, so it's a trade-off. I'm very happy with the product and price.Digital camera Review: Easy to use and very compatible

I got this for my boyfriend for his birthday. He's an electric engineer but also the type of guy that REALLY takes his time. He programmed our DVD player, computer, cable box, and TV in under 45 minutes with ease. But that's also including the time it took to get the items out of the packaging which also used a significant amount of time.
Never had to reprogram anything. The range is GREAT. You don't have to press very hard on the keys either. Actually, sometimes when you actually bump into the remote, the button gets pushed, so I don't suggest if you are one of those people like me, sitting on it by accident or letting it get a little lost on the couch.
It also comes with backlighting that you have the option of turning off which is always nice. Other reviewers are right, you could even point the remote away and the buttons still work!
