 Simply the best remote ever November 12, 2006
Brian J. Miksic (The Berkshires, MA, USA)
41 out of 45 found this review helpful
I'm amazed... simply amazed. The price is way out there... and this obviously isn't for everyone... but it does everything it says... well.
Set up is super smooth, get the manufacturer and model number, type it in during set up on your computer, and it is done. Thats it.
I do have multiple lighting and heating controls and it is a snap to set up as well. And then you can have the remote send the setup information to other controllers as well.
Tip: Don't buy their lighting controls... WAY over priced. Anything that is Z-Wave will work... Leviton sells a line for 1/3 of the price.
It's all about the lighting August 28, 2006

I've had a number of universal remotes over the years and each has had pluses and minuses to offer. The monster remote is a very effective universal remote on all accounts but there is ONE thing that stands out here above all the other remotes. Wireless control over lighting. I replaced my dimmers and switches with the Monster dimmers and switches and now I can control every light in my house. Monster really doesn't talk much about this feature but being able to hit "ALL OFF" at night on my way to bed and have the remote turn off all the house lights is killer. You can even map ligthing scenes to activities. If you hit watch a movie it can turn down the ligths at the same time. Really cool. Good job monster.
Not just a remote... January 31, 2007

As mentioned in other reviews, you get the remote, which can be programmed for ANYTHING, and it send both IR and RF signals. You also get the lighting controls, a feature which should not be underrated - very cool to run ALL electronics and electrics from one location. But, the package also comes with an Omni Remote, which is a signal repeater. Basically, you can configure the Omni to repeat signals to your other components, then hide them all in a cabinet or another room. The Monster Remote send the Omni a command over RF, the Omni converts it to IR, then beams it to *the proper component*. Another obscure feature is the ability to chain remotes, and have them all know the state of the system. So your remote upstairs knows the TV is still on, even if you haven't been near it. When you go upstairs, just hit "system off" - it sends the command to the remote downstairs in view of the TV, and the other remote picks up the command and sends it. Very cool. So, for the money you're getting more than a universal remote, you're getting an integrated command network. Mine has worked well since the get go, and I just added lighting controls. So easy, both my wife and visiting mother swear by the thing. My Mom wants one now...
Excellent Remote April 7, 2008

I bought this remote after my son's friend sat on my Harmony 890 which was a great idea that did not quite deliver. Since I loved the concept and the Monster remote had similar software, I took a chance on the higher priced Monster AVL300 and have not been disappointed. Setup was easy - one button did not get the correct code and I easily used the learning function to fix that. The omnilink feature actually works perfectly. The "joystick" controller is a little quirky - however, it works consistently so you just have to adjust to how it behaves.
This is a great remote - easy to program and customize, works well, and is easy to use.
Best Product on the Market, Great Customer Service March 12, 2008
Glenn M. Thompson (Mendham, NJ)

Now that the price is down out of the stratosphere (I paid $500!), this is a must buy. The programming interface is easy and intuitive. It works more effectively and most simply than any other programmable remote, and I've owned several.
Not to be overlooked, the customer service at Monster is great! The hours are a bit stingy (M-F working hours on the Pacific Coast, so I always have to call from my office), but the people are friendly, knowledgable and quick to do the right thing (when I had a problem with the remote, of my own doing, they didn't hesitate to send out a completely new one free of charge).
This is the best product on the market. Now you can afford it. Buy it.
