Saw yesterday at Costco they are selling this model for 139. That is a great deal.

Ultimate has a bad layout though. Most people seem to hate it after awhile

I have the regular companion and it doesn't bother me at all. No back lit but the buttons are easy to remember. I think the ultimate has backlit and a touchscreen.

I have the Ultimate Home and love it. No issues with the layout at all.

Both two for my two home setup and love them. Very easy to set up and works great using voice commands via Alexa.

Placing the transport controls at the top is suboptimal. I'm also not a fan of remotes with screens.

I see it's also got that weird Harmony shape to the backside, which I've always hated. I'm not some Logitech hater, BTW. I use a K750 keyboard and M705 mouse for my PC. I was just agreeing with someone about the bad layout, and I didn't start a thread to broadcast my disappointment to the world, so I'm not sure I deserve the "Mr Negative" moniker.

Oh you deserve it with that last comment about the curve back. I happen to love it. Lol

Amazon Harmony Ultimate Remote

Is this the same thing you found at Costco?

I'm just wondering if this is the lowest it'll go. I can't imagine Black Friday bringing down the price even lower.. but I may pick this up today.

Harmony Remote and Hub now only $58 on Amazon, which is an absolute steal. Unlike the Ultimate Hub, the remote included doesn't have the touchscreen.

i have the ultimate remote and the companion remote and I reach for the companion remote 9 out of 10 times


does anyone know if there is any issue setting up more than one hub on the same network? I doubt there is, but just wanted to know for certain

Absolutely you can. I have one hub set up in my main viewing room and another set up in my master bedroom.
