Have a closed media closet with uverse box. Need a good rf capable remote/setup.

I don't need a closed box. But I'm running a wireless sub/soundbar combo, Contour Box from Cox, an Apple TV & my Plasma Smart TV (LG) on my Harmony by Logitech.
It's amazing. The only drawback is I lost some of the quickness on the keyboard for the LG Smart TV. The remote for the TV was a "Magic Remote" that was Wii-like. So now I have to use a rocker pad on the keyboard for both the Apple TV and LG. It requires individual presses to move the mouse but otherwise it's a huge improvement in terms of unifying all of my peripherals.

I bought a harmony 900 on ebay or amazon refurb/used. It has been the best remote, no problems with lagging or wrong commands.

Looks like there are used ones starting at $65

harmony 900
I had one for years and was a great remote.
I traded it in last year on a Harmony Ultimate Home. Cant go wrong with either model.

I bought the 900 off eBay for cheap and you can't go wrong with it for closed cabinet use. Love this thing

I think the 900 has the best ergonomics of any of the harmony remotes. I did extensive research when trying to pick mine out, and really liked it better than the newer ones.
Mainly, the difference was the positioning of the Play/FF/RW Stop buttons. The Harmony Ultimate required repositioning of your hand (or using two hands) while the 900 did not.

I have the 650 and installed an adapter kit with mini blasters. No issues at all so far. Going on about 6 months.
Those remotes eat batteries pretty quickly so a rechargeable battery station and some rechargeable batteries are definitely recommended. Will make your life easier.
