This review is from: GE 24116 4 - Device Universal Remote (Electronics)

I had first purchased a 2-pack universal remote made by Phillips; 1 was a 3-function, the other a 6-function. Thought it was a great deal and the 6-function remote was advertised as illuminated. Well, the illuminated part was only the number pad and because both remotes were black-on-black (black buttons on a matte-black controller)with small navigation buttons they were difficult to see & manipulate. Purchased this GE instead and was instantly pleased. The remote is a shiny black with large blue buttons (better contrast for easy viewing) that light-up automatically for 30 seconds when any button is pushed; or you can press a back-light button at anytime to light it up. I have both arthritis & farsighted vision so this remote is a lifesaver! Because the buttons are large and blue, the remote is a treat to use even without the back-lighting. Also like that the function buttons are laid out intuitively so that I don't have to search all over for oft-used buttons. In addition, set-up took only seconds on an 11-year old Magnavox t.v. using the code provided in the instruction manual (haven't yet tried programing my DVD player although this 4-function remote can also be used for DVD, DVR, & cable boxes). The only reason I gave this 4 stars instead of five is that the remote is not as ergonimically designed grip-wise as the Phillips or some others, but that is a very small drawback when overall it outshines other universal & even OEM remotes.

Works good- for the price a great deal. I brought it because it's lights up when needed. I brought it for a TV that I purchased second hand and didn't come with a remote.
