Used as a replacement control. Easy setup (2nd Gen w/ Alexa Voice)
I ordered this after accidentally throwing my other one in the washer almost a year ago. My regular TV remote works fine with my fire TV stick but I need the remote to actually use when I travel. The remote came with batteries and was fairly easy to setup based on the instructions. Since this was a replacement remote and not a new one, I used my old silicon cover and it still fit perfect. I feared that I would get a piece of junk or some type of knockoff remote but it's the real deal. After getting my remote and adding the batteries, I followed the instructions to connect it: Press and hold down the home button for 10 seconds and wait until a notification pops up saying the remote has connected successfully. I missed using Alexa and it still works fine. I'm not sure why other reviews say it's not good or have bad ratings unless the description wasn't read.I'm content with my purchase and I'll try not to wash my remote again since the remote itself is pretty expensive.
After two years of hard service, the original remote that came with the Fire Stick w/ Alexa, gave up the ghost. Tried all the usual, new batteries, other remotes from Fire Sticks in the house, nothing worked. Started a chat with Amazon tech support and they outlined how to do a "factory reset" of the original remote. That didn't work either, so it was diagnosed as dead. I asked which remotes worked with my (first gen) Fire Stick w/ Alexa and they recommended two models, I chose this one. It was a couple dollars less expensive. (the other was $29! yikes, almost as much as a new device. Aren't there any aftermarket remotes that work? He said no.) I Got the new one, followed the instructions and it took all of two minutes to pair. No problems and now I can use my Fire Stick again. The warranty says 90 days, so we are gonna use the heck outta this one to see if we can get it to fail before the deadline. If it fails in the near future, we will be forced to buy another device, 'cause we're not gonna spend another $27 for a new remote! If it dies, I will revisit this review and change the stars.
I needed a replacement for my fire tv remote (1st gen), mine was completely dead, change of several sets of batteries didn’t work and after using my phone app as a remote (stopped working too) I decided to go ahead and purchase. Worked right out of the box!! I did read other reviews and I unplugged my fire tv, took batteries out of old remote, (even though it didn’t work!) This new remote paired automatically and began working immediately!! I certainly can’t say that it will always do that but for me it did! Working perfectly and I love the voice recognition by Alexa, I have an Alexa downstairs and upstairs...so far I’m so pleased with this purchase...I hated paying close to $30 for a dang remote but very glad I did at this point! Will update if anything changes!
My daughter and grandchildren were home to visit when my original Firestick remote completely disappeared! We hunter everywhere for it and nothing! So I ordered a replacement which came in 2 days. When I finally had time to set it up, it worked from the controls, but wouldn't respond to voice commands. I don't have a lot of time during the school year to fiddle with such problems so I set it aside and didn't try it for a few weeks (used an app on my phone or my echo dot when I wanted to use voice control). Then I picked it up again to see if I could get it working and surprise! It worked immediately with no fiddling and no issues! I bought a bright red cover for this one so it won't disappear as easily as the original!

Bought this as a replacement for the remote that came with my Gen1 Fire Box. It does exactly as it's supposed to do. Setup was super quick and easy. The only reason I am giving this four stars is because it died after two years and the right button started getting super flaky about six months or more before the remote died. Even though I have the remote app on every phone and tablet in the house, having an actual remote is easier. Unfortunately, it looks like this remote is no longer being made and the upgraded version doesn't work with my Fire Box. Upgrade my Fire device or deal with the remote app?
So, this worked immediately w/ my current FireTv stick. I don't recall any problem or hassle getting it added other than I did notice a weird glitch in ¹st couple weeks where the TV popped up message claiming that it could not connect to the remote but when I pressed a button it reconnected I guess I don't know & I haven't had that glitch happen again since then. Has no volume control capacity.
Bought a replacement for a remote that the Great Dane decided was a chew toy. It's super easy to add the new remote to an existing Fire TV box (or stick). Just turn on the Fire TV (Home screen) and hold the home button down on the new remote! You will see a notification on the screen that the new remote is now paired wit the fire tv. DONE!
I was worried as the instructions tell you to navigate to the settings menu on the fire tv. How the heck do you do that without a working remote?! You don't have to, just hold the home button down until you get the notification it is paired.
I just wish the remotes didn't cost nearly as much as a new box did. They are too expensive!
I’ve just had to purchase my fourth remote for my Fire TV Cube. I mostly have Alexa control my tv, and don’t use the remote as often as voice control, but the batteries I put in these things die fast & then the thing stops working intermittently and often. Did they design these things to break quickly so they can keep taking your money? I’ve had, as I’m sure others have, tv remotes that last as long as the dang tv, but not these. Fleece the public much?
