Logitech Remote

I was thinking about buying all-in-one remote control from Logitech Harmony, and I would like to know if anyone has any opinion about their quality of buttons or functionality of the remote is worth paying $100?

I am interested in one from the one at Walmart.com which is in the link below.

Harmony 520
 
The quality and durability is good. Well duh, it is a Logitech product.

Not a fan of the layout though. Don't like how most of the buttons are mapped on the six buttons on the LCD.
 
Harmonys are the best remotes made. That is their cheapest and low end product tho. I would begin looking at Harmonys with the 659. I've had mine since before Harmony was bought out by logitech, and they are just awesome IMO.
 
I also recommend the H659... I have it... I'll never use any other universal remote again. This thing literally pwns all other universal remotes... (besides the higher end harmonys)

i don't understand why such an expensive remote is needed. what does this have over a regular cheap universal remote.

I have an 880, and I'm not sure if this one functions the same way, but mine makes things very easy to use.

I can just hit "watch a movie" and the remote will turn my projector on, the receiver on, set the receiver to the correct input, start up the dvd player, and start the bass shaker receiver.

It also remembers what's on and what the settings are, so if I hit "watch tv" after that, it would change the receiver input, turn off the dvd player, and turn on the vcr.
 
I like this remote control since it is perfect rectangular. I like things that is rectangular, and not those things which are curvy..
