Mother’s Day will come sooner than you think! Yes and I have so much jewelry and other gifts my family usually gives me! So sharing that with hubby and how much I hate when I’m on my comfy couch in our TV room, that I have to get up to turn the DVD on, or to switch to Amazon Fire TV and so many other things that our remote can’t handle … I wish the remote control and life was easier!! It would be the perfect Mother’s Day Gift everrrrr !
Best Buy heard me and offered an amazing opportunity! They gave me exactly what I needed: the Perfect Mother’s Day Gift
How To Control Our TV Using One Voice Command
By using The Logitech Harmony Elite Remote with Amazon Echo Dot
Just imagine, I have a season premiere of one of my favorite shows this weekend, with a single command, Alexa will turn on the TV, go to the right channel, at the right volume and dim my lights and set the perfect temperature for that ambience that I’ve always wanted….Yes, one single command! Isn’t that awesome???
Here are a few of my favorite features of the the perfect early Mother’s Day Gift; a couple of the amazing features that The Logitech Harmony Elite Remote used with Amazon Echo Dot offer:
-
Absolute Control: Control your entire home entertainment experience with just your voice. With Harmony and Alexa you can enjoy easy, hands-free control of all the things you already love. Turn on your TV, change channels or turn up the volume, fire up a playlist or set the mood for movie night … your voice makes it all happen! That easy!
-
Harmony and Alexa let you start your favorite activities no matter what they are. Start an Activity like “Sports Night” to turn on ESPN, dim the lights and even crank up the subwoofer to make it feel like you’re practically at the game. When it’s time to switch gears and turn on “Date Night”, just say the word. When you need to make sure you are in control “being ahead of the game”, so when hubby comes in, you’ve already set it all up! It’s a momma’s game kind of control!
-
Switching between cable and Amazon TV is now just a one voice command away … I have some favorite premium channels there … now I can access it all, just by asking Alexa! Isn’t that awesome?
-

This sounds just a little bit too much for me, but for another tech saavy mom it probably will be perfect! I had no idea they made such a thing!

The technology that keeps coming out continues to amaze me! What a cool way to add more smart features to your home.

A central piece of tech like this sounds perfect for me! I have so many remotes and other gadgets, it’s overwhelming. I’d love to just have this.

Having one remote really does make everything so easy. At this time I have to juggle 3 remotes just for my TV. This one is the wave of the future.
Mama to 6 Blessings
That’s really cool! That would come in handy in our homeschooling instead of me having to grab my phone to google things. What a great device to have in the home!
Mama to 6 Blessings
Oops, I misread. I was thinking it was the device you can ask questions to. Sorry. I re-read your article. I so want this!!! It never fails I sit down to nurse my baby and watch t.v. but the remote is on the other side of the living room! I love this device!
Melissa Chapman
That really would be a great present to get for mother’s day or a birthday. I would love to update my home and make it ready for new technology.

I could never live in the high tech world you live in with a remote that controls everything from the TV to the temperature and lights. I will look into this but I have to change a lot of my gadgets to make it work out well.
