| roushb's Full Review: One for All Cinema 7Plus Universal Remote Control |
I purchased this remote two years ago and have loved it ever since. It has plenty of devices, so it's great even for big systems.
I've found the remote to be extremely durable and reliable. It's never lost its codes like some other universal remotes do. The glow in the dark keys are nice, but not all of them glow. I would have liked it to light up.
It is compatible with up to 7 devices, and has the buttons to control nearly any feature. There are 4 learning buttons across the top of the remote - these can be programmed separately for each device. There are two macro buttons allowing you to send out multiple commands with the press of one button. These two buttons perform the same commands no matter what device you're controlling. These basic features are more than enough for most people, but read on to discover even more of its capabilities.
The best part is that it has features that make it completely customizable - even beyond what the manual tells you about. Check out this link:

I just found it and now can really take advantage of the remote. Using the above guide I learned how to be able to control functions of one device even though the remote was in a different mode (I can control the volume of the receiver while in DVD mode - no more switching back and forth!).
Without getting into touchscreen remotes (which I find harder to use because you can't feel the buttons) you won't find a remote that can do more for the price.
