Here’s a sample review for the Grundig Universal Remote Control 8-in-1 (Manual version). You can use or adapt it depending on your experience.

Title: Does the job, but keep the manual close
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5)

I recently picked up the Grundig Universal Remote Control 8-in-1 to replace three separate remotes for my TV, soundbar, DVD player, and streaming box. After spending a good hour with the manual, here’s my honest take.

Setup & Manual
Let’s start with the manual itself. It’s a classic printed booklet – not the most intuitive, but surprisingly detailed. You’ll need patience. The remote supports direct code entry, auto-search, and code learning. I tried auto-search first, but it took too long. Manual code entry (using the tables in the manual) worked better. I found codes for my Samsung TV and Sony soundbar within minutes. For an older LG DVD player, none of the listed codes worked, so I used the learning function – that’s where this remote shines.

Build & Design
The remote feels sturdy, not cheap plastic. Buttons are well-spaced and clicky. It’s not backlit, so nighttime use is tricky. The layout is generic but functional – volume/mute controls the main device, while other keys can be assigned.

Performance
Once programmed, it controls power, volume, input, and basic playback reliably. Range is good (about 8–10 meters). However, some advanced functions (like subtitle or audio track buttons) may not work on all devices. For basic daily use, it’s perfectly fine. grundig universal remote control 8 in 1 manual

Pros

Supports up to 8 devices (TV, SAT, DVD, AUX, etc.)
Learning function works well for unsupported brands
No batteries required? (Mine came with them – check the box)
Affordable price point

Cons

Manual is dry and requires careful reading
No backlight
Auto-search is slow
Some device codes missing from the list

Final Verdict
If you’re comfortable following a written manual and don’t mind a bit of trial and error, the Grundig 8-in-1 is a solid budget universal remote. It’s not smart, not Bluetooth, not fancy – but it works. Just don’t lose the manual, because you’ll need the code list again if you reset it.

Best for: People with 3–6 older devices who want a single remote and don’t mind manual programming.
Not for: Anyone expecting app-based setup or voice control.
