3.0 out of 5 stars Fairly pleased, March 15, 2007

By	Justin M. Lockwood (Michigan State University, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Works well enough, but some of the controls are odd. For instance one button is used to turn on the tv ("TV"), while an entirely different one is used to turn it off ("Power"). Also, it is not very compatible with the RCA TV's that include the "Guide Plus" menu. There is no menu button, no exit button, and no guide button, so it is always interesting to try to clear the guide screen once the TV is turned on, and once it is cleared it is impossible to bring it back up with out turning the tv off then on again.

I was able to find my signal well though and have not had any connectivity problems, so it does its job. Overall, I'd say it is as expected for an $8 remote and you would probably get your money's worth, especially if you don't have a guide menu or anything like that. Oh and a caveat, I did not try it with a DVD player or Cable box or anything like that, so I couldn't tell you how it works as far as those electronics go.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very universal, February 16, 2009

RCA RCU 300 would not control two of my VCRs:
Panasonic Omnivision VHS
Sharp VC-H942

However, it did control my Toshiba TV and my Sony VCR. I am dissatisfied b/c I really needed this universal remote to control my Panasonic VCR.

As I have written before on this product..once again I will repeat
myself. The "PRE CH" does not work. This is a faulty product.
