Works as advertised!
In one of our rooms the non-TV components are off to one side, and the TV is up high on another side so that we can watch it while reclining. With the Wireless Extender there is no need to point our Harmony 1000 at our devices. The only minor issue was that It wasn't always clear where the IR window was on our devices, and so it took a little experimentation.

Too complicated
This device requires that you glue on IR blasters in front of each of your devices. Then you have to some how store the wires out of sight. This is not exactly "Wireless"! The picture of the device in the advertisement does not show the bundles of wires that need to be connected. This device is not worth the bother.

Expensive but worth it
my TV is far away from my Audio equipment, so I had to point the remote at the TV when using IR. I have a 10 second delay programmed for the TV to tune to the correct input, so I had to keep the remote pointed at the TV the whole time, or it wouldn't work properly. Using a second blaster solved that problem.

Needs hardware change
Works well with both the Harmony 890 and 1000. Fairly easy to set up, though there are two HUGE drawbacks which Logitech should fix.
1. They have hard-wired the cable to the Extender so that you have to unplug the unit whenever you want to upgrade the settings - a royal pain when it's plugged in behind your components.
2. Even if you want to make a tiny change to the Harmony settings (e.g. changing a couple of icons) you have to update BOTH the Harmony and the Extender. This takes much longer and, because it's hard-wired, is very annoying.
