Great product, easy to set up. If you have an entertainment center or rather a dish/cable, dvd, stereo, TV, etc, this universal remote allows easy and intuitive sequencing of all activities. Including watching and recording TV, playing DVD's, listening music, and or changing from each.
Great product. November 3, 2008

I highly recommend that any one with more than two different devices purchase a Harmony 670. I had my A/V person program it for me so I can't review how easy it was to program. However, I can say without hesitation that once it's programmed it's a piece of cake to use.
I finally can see my coffee table!

I am on my 4th remote. 3 of the remotes broke when I tried to connect it through the USB port, the other one had a hard fault on the circuit board. Logitech have replaced all of them but it is a pain because I have to use my old remotes when it is not working. When the remote is working it is great.

After reading countless reviews on the Harmony 670 and other Harmony models, I was a little apprehensive about buying one. Many people say the setup is difficult and the Logitech software is very buggy. I've had my Harmony 670 for a couple of weeks now and I just don't agree. Both the online setup and the physical software from Logitech have worked flawlessly for me and I use a 5 year-old laptop to accomplish it. Yes, it does take some time to make the remote absolutely perfect for your situation, especially if you have alot of component but you will have a functional remote controlling everything within an hour or so and it's easy to do. The key thing is that the Harmony remote CAN control every single function of every single remote that you own. I have 7 components (and 7 remotes) and the Harmony controls each one completely and perfectly, even older components. The activity-based tasks are a godsend to your family members that don't quite understand the finer points of universal remotes and the necessary steps that need to be taken to get a DVD movie to play with the home theater on. My wife loves this thing, no intimidation factor whatsoever! Also, no pulling out the old remotes for a single function that can't be programmed onto the Harmony. Again, I'm baffled why many people don't love these things, I will always own one now.
Great for consolidating remotes October 13, 2008

For a remote that does so much, it's incredibly easy to set up. I plugged it into my computer and just found each device in a list and the remote downloaded all the proper controls.
I found only a few downsides. One, it has buttons like "watch TV" and "watch movie" which sends a series of signals to set up all your devices for that action. You have to use those buttons. You can't just turn the TV on or off by itself. And, when you click on one of those action buttons you have to hold the remote pointing at everything for about 5 seconds while it executes everything.
My only other complaint is that there are some "custom" controls you can set up but they are confusing and I haven't been able to get them to do a few actions that I believe should have been standard with the remote. But if you have the time and patience to figure it out then you'll probably be fine (or if you have all equipment that is fairly new).
