This is such a good gadget!! its definately one to be pround to own (how sad am I) but I do love my gadgets and have been playing with my new purchase all day. I have wanted one for so long but thought £50 for a remote control was steep but hey here we are Currys have it for half price in their sale online and instore too!!!

    Been looking at this series of remotes myself - couple of points:

    All reviews of this series of control state problems with short battery life (weeks not months)
    There is a newer model out that controls 8 devices plus a theoretical 9th 'Home Theatre' - which allows you to control the main functions of several items at once.  Cheapest I've seen this is round about £44.

    Despite these points its a great spot!!  ;D

    It's great but be careful if you have an ntl box - it can knacker them! I went through two before the engineer worked out it was the remote wot done it.

    Don't know if it affects others, eg Sky...

    I have bought numerous so called one4all remotes over the years, but always end up going back to the original remotes.

    The one4alls are just not as good as originals unless you always want basic functions.

    More difficult functions always get me looking for the original remotes.

    yes same here, but they are ok just for normal use (as long as original is ok)
  • Is this the 4, 6, 8, or 10 appliance remote?
