  • More Info


    Easy Enough for Every Member of the Family
    The Harmony Remote is the world's only remote with Smart State Technology™ (SST™) Activity Control. Just press an Activity button such as "Watch TV" or "Watch a Movie", and the Harmony Remote will automatically send the appropriate commands to automatically set up your home entertainment components — without you ever having to program a 'macro'. The Harmony Remote provides simple, intuitive control of even the most elaborate entertainment system for anyone in the family.

    Integrates the Most Sought-After Features
    The 51-Button Harmony Remote is the culmination of years of customer feedback, design refinement and user group studies. The resulting product includes some notable feature inclusions like Activity buttons, top mounted display, separate navigation buttons, dedicated satellite control and bright backlit buttons. The new design even enhances comfortable one-handed operation.

    Backlit Buttons for Easy Control at Night
    The new black 51-Button Harmony Remote features a brightly backlit display and buttons. The interactive display screen is now located at the top of the remote. Convenient "ATM style" soft buttons, located to the sides of the screen, make menu navigation a breeze. Parents and children alike will have no problem using the Harmony 51-Button Remote.

    Easy to Set-Up
    The Harmony Remote Activities are configured through our unique Web Wizard tools on a dedicated Website for Harmony users. With the world's only Smart State Database of electronic devices, set-up is a snap. The community-driven database together with IR learning ensures support of all infrared-controlled devices made by any manufacturer, including TiVo, HDVCR, HDTV, Plasma Displays, Monitors, Projectors, Lighting Control, CD/DVD-R, PVR, Satellite Radios, Amplifiers, DVD Players, Receivers, Dual VCRs and even combination devices like DVD-VCR components.

    Works Alone, or With Existing Harmony Remotes
    The 51-Button Harmony Remote is not intended to replace other Harmony Remotes. Users accessing hundreds of TV programs, CDs and MP3 titles directly from the interactive display will still want the scroll wheel found exclusively on the 14-Button/31-Button Harmony Remotes. The 51-Button Harmony Remote completes the Harmony line of products with an extremely user-friendly interface that anyone can use without any training. The combination of this incredibly simple interface and the Smart State Technology makes the 51-Button Harmony Remote the choice for the whole family.

    • USB Plug and Play — After completing the Web Wizard set-up, program the remote by simply connecting the Harmony Remote to your computer with the supplied USB cable.

    • Interactive Display — Easy to read interactive display keeps you in control and informed of what's going on.

    • Backlight Glow — Backlighting makes the buttons and interactive display glow brightly for easy use in the dark.

    STAN L -- fort worth, TX   8/6/2005
    excellent product and delivery.
    Ryan H -- phoenix, AZ   5/30/2005
    Kick back and enjoy the ride. I am watching TV and I want to watch the DVD I just rented, so I press the "Watch a Movie" button(Which I re-named "Mind Eraser"). My PVR turns off, the A/V selector turns on and goes to Input4 and the DVD turns on and begins to play as my Television, with speed like an uzi, sets up the Closed Caption (personal preference on movies) My Stereo then powers on and goes to the AUX input while the volume returns to a pre-selected level and my Lighting fades down to copy theater lighting. The best thing is, it never makes a mistake, and all this takes place in about 5 seconds. I currently have 6 similar activities, but I thik you get the Idea...
    Matt -- silver spring, MD   2/15/2005
    Best part of the remote... I can train the mother-in-law to use it in less than a minute! Press 'Watch TV' or 'Watch a Movie'. Press 'Off' when done. That's about it! I had to get the remote replaced (to be fair, it was a refurbished model not purchased from SmartHome), but all the info was saved thru the web-interface so when the new remote arrived... 5 minutes and I had all the settings from the previous remote! Only one minor quibble... the fast forward and rewind buttons are at the very bottom of the remote. When using these often (like watching shows using TIVO), these buttons are in an uncomfortable position. If you're a TIVO user, I would look at one of the other Harmony remotes desgned for PVR's...
    JIM -- omaha, NE   1/26/2005
    As always, excellent service.
    JAY -- manassas, VA   12/2/2004
    LOVE IT! Greatest purchase ever! Very easy setup and easily changed in the future. Will probably buy more for other TV's.

    ROBERT -- brook park, OH   6/29/2004
    I have been waiting for a remote like this to arrive on the market. It was easy to program and simple to update. This one remote replaced the five I used to have to use to flip between a DVD player, a television, a stereo receiver, a satellite receiver, and a VCR. It is well worth the money!
    STEVE -- billings, MT   6/27/2004
    Very Satisfied with the Harmony Remote. It has made made the task of controling my entertainment system a breeze.
    TREVOR M. -- tucson, AZ   5/24/2004

    Great remote finally a universal remote that actually works.
    ALAN -- boulder, CO   2/27/2004
    It takes some programming work, but it's worth it. Your web page makes most of it easy, and I liked being able to try out the programming on your website before I bought the product. That's what convinced me the product would do what I wanted it to.
    JAMES -- oakdale, NY   2/26/2004
    Best remote ever
    JEFF -- west roxbury, MA   2/18/2004
