Pros & Cons
Pros
Purchased for my 94 yr old mother-in-law. Need a remote for grandma or grandpa. It works great for my father. What a relief for me.
Cons
The * either don't register half the time you press them, or start repeating insanely fast, as soon as you touch them. Tried 2 sets of fresh batteries. Did not work. Batteries are replaced, but with no response.
Keys have to be pressed almost two seconds for the device to recognize they were pressed. This is frustration and leads to errors when after you push it a second time it brings up two number. Never contacted with the tv.
Highlights
Quality
It works from any point that he can see the tv and he is happy with the large simplified buttons
This remote worked perfectly for our polaroid tv with the first code listed
She had so much trouble with the other remotes she had
Shipping
Set up was fast it worked on his sharp 65 4k tv right out of the box
The whole experience was fast easy affordable and stress free
Competitiveness
We purchased the first remote for my wife’s tv about a month ago and purchased this last remote for the tv in our bedroom
