Totally worthless! We bought 15 of these and each one stopped working after being in use for no more than 2 weeks. Not a battery problem...

I've had this one for about a month and a half, and it quit working. Also, it would only work if pointed exactly at the base of the t.v. A little bit one side or the other and up or down and it would not work. I learned my lesson, you get what you pay...

The SC 340 works as advertised. It is very easy to set up and use. However, it did not control the on-screen menus on a RCA Satellite box, although it can turn the device on and off, change volume, channels , etc. The bulletin board at the Jensen...

Nice, inexpensive remote

 

Nice, inexpensive remote

Worked well with my Sony TV and JVC vcr, both fairly recent models. The auto code set appeared to work for both but not all buttons were functional so I had to set them manually--not difficult. Definitely worth the money if you have a newer model TV...

Good value, works with many components

 

Good value, works with many components

Pros: Works with all my components: TV, VCR, DVD, Stereo. Outstanding price. Easy setup.Cons: Too few optional/extra buttons, doesn't have a solid feel to it. Some buttons are too small.

Worked on one TV but not the other

 

Worked on one TV but not the other

This remote would not work on my old style Sanyo TV. I tried for a long time to get it to read but it never did. It did work on my newer Sony TV and my memorex VCR. Definitly worth 10 bucks if it works on your set.

This things works GREAT when it works.... After the auto program feature was tried and only picked up my Panasonic TV, I managed to manually program the Toshiba DVD player. After 2 weeks I've given up on getting the VCR (Panasonic) to work and there...

Good Value remote

This is a good value. I decided to program it manually for my RCA TV, MGA VCR, and Toshiba DVD after trying the auto programming feature. It was difficult to tell if the auto program scan was working properly and after becoming impatient, I gave up...

Product Specifications

Jensen's four-way Universal Remote Control operates your TV, VCR and Cable with ease. The slim-line case, index finger grooves and keys grouped by function make this one remote you won't need the manual to understand. There are no codes to remember, thanks to Auto Codescan. "Memory Lock" saves the programmed codes for 25 minutes. "Surf" lets you scan through the channels without punching the "Channel +" key over and over. There's even a Variable Speed "Surf" so you can program the surf speed (slow through fast).
