The Bottom Line While the RF-capable Logitech Harmony 890 does much of what the Monster Home Theater and Lighting Controller 300 does for significantly less money, the Monster is the superior remote. The Logitech Harmony 900 is, hands down, the best universal remote control we've ever tested. While it's missing an RF option, Logitech's Harmony One is one of the best--if not the best--universal remote we've ever tested. The Logitech Harmony 1100 is an excellent touch-screen universal remote that corrects most of the shortcomings and frustrations of its predecessor, but its high price will relegate it to high-end home theaters only. The URC Digital R50's successful combination of good ergonomics, solid design, and easy programmability makes it a good alternative to Logitech Harmony universal remotes.
