Have a family member with some vison and cognitive issues... So I had to simplify the remote. After finding the right code(s) it works awesome. They can switch between the 5 channels they usually watch and control the TV as needed (volume, mute, power). I had to program this twice because cable box was replaced. It can be frustrating but ended up well worth the effort. Normal remotes from cable companies have way too many buttons and are almost impossible to read . This remote allows for frustration free TV access to people that might otherwise be overwhelmed by standard remotes.

Programmed mom's 5 favorite channels in. Now she doesn;t butterfinger the cable remote and switch modes. Used a label maker to mark each button. ABC, ESPN, FOX, etc.... Actually just bought her a second one so she can have more than five channels. Wish they made one with 10 buttons.

I got this remote for my mother who has dementia- it took me a few times to get the favorite channels programmed but once I figured it out it went smoothly. I also added labels to the volume and channel changer.

If you follow the directions explicitly, it is very easy to program. It is also easy to operate, even for technophobes, the elderly, and the visually impaired.

Got this for my mom who moved to an assisted living that only provided satellite TV. She has low vision so had to find a simple remote for her to use, and not have to flip through nearly 400 channels. Took a little while to set up, but worked great. You do have to keep trying the codes for the TV and satellite box but eventually one will work. She has a Sceptre brand HDTV and Directv satellite. Was pleasantly surprised--usually stuff doesn't work as advertised, but this remote did.

Bought this for my 101 year old mother-in-law, and she loves it. But the instructions are not quite complete.For example when setting up for the tv, we found a code that would change the channels, and thought we were done, but that code would not turn the tv off. We needed to continue through the list to find a code that did both.Also, when programming the favorites buttons, we had to press the mute key to get the station to be saved.Those things didn't take a lot of extra time, but they were a nuisance.
