Does the job!
For the 9.99 I paid for this, it's totally worth it. I thought I'd have to find the codes for my devices, but the automatic code search feature took less than a minute for my DVD player and CD player. I was even able to add my CRT tv with the automatic code search, which surprised me. The only thing I don't like is that there are no dedicated skip forward and skip backward buttons for music; instead, the channel up and down seem to skip forward and backward when I am using my CD player. I was concerned that support for 4 devices wouldn't be enough, but I have 3 set up right now and can't think of anything else I care to control with this remote, so I guess it's all I need!I think it would be cool if it had re-legendable buttons for the devices, so you could add your own custom device labels.

This remote wood CVS
I love this remote! My old remote had gotten to where it wouldn't do anything. Then I bought a remote on Amazon that would turn the TV on or off, and with difficulty switch to the channel keyed in. The keys were labeled with brands of TV Not functional. And I never did locate a key for the dot, which I really needed, For 13.2, 58.2, etc. This remote is perfect--the buttons are easy to press, and responsive.I was watching a lot of 13.2, 58.2, etc.

Trouble Using with Cable
My problem with the remote. -This describes my Sony RemoteOn my Sony remote I can select HOME or TV. When I press HOME the apps I pay for appear. When I press TV, cable becomes available but I must use the cable remote to access everything on cable.GE RemoteThis new remote continues to allow access to everything on my Sony TV. I press TV, ON, HOME to see the apps I pay for. The GE remote allows me to turn on cable, but I have to press 5 buttons, to turn it on, AUX, On, TV, Input, OK. Once it's turned on I must use then use the cable remote. I had hoped that I could use one remote for TV and cable, but it's not possible.

Problem solved!
This remote is almost everything I wanted, and well within what I expected. It replaced three remotes (TV, streaming Roku, and a dvd player) and does a fair job of controlling my sound system. The only thing that would have made it even better is if it also handled the voice commands that the Roku remote can do. My main reason for buying is that my tv remote has started to lose functioning of some of its most used buttons. Problem solved! I Highly recommend this remote.

Easy setup
I might have just got lucky, but it programmed to tv on 1st code. I like the light up keys a lot and it's comfortable. I bought it for the good price and light up feature. Well worth it

Instructions too complicated and does not connect to my Roku tv
I’ve bought remotes controllers for replacements but this remote feels impossible to get to work on my Roku tv! No matter what I do it won’t work! It’s annoying that the instructions are different and the long pice of paper with all these codes! I tried for an hour trying to take it work and does not! I tried to call customer service for help and it’s an automated voice that doesn’t respond correctly when I’m trying to descibe what tv I have! I’m screaming at the automated voice!! Asking for an agent and won’t connect me to anyone!! I would not recommend this remote control! I was almost two hours trying to program it to a Roku tv!! I gave up !

I programmed it to my Roku TV. Every thing is working but the channels. I can't get them to work.

Better than OEM
My original and OEM remote were awful. The buttons become quickly less responsive with use. Good old GE to the rescue! The first LG code I tried worked perfectly. Very easy to use.
