Not what I expected
I expected a full replacement remote for the fire stick but this remote doesnt directly control the firestick via direct wireless communication. Instead, it has a USB dongle attachment that you have to plug into the firestick that it uses to control the firestick. With this setup, things like HDMI CEC control of the TV doesnt work so you can no longer control the TV volume and power through the firestick. Also, the external dongle makes the installation look messy.On a positive note, the remote did at least allow me to operate the firestick again.

Not A Amazon Brand Replacement
I didn't realize it wasn't an Amazon brand replacement remote control. I would not have purchased this if I would have realized it was a off brand. The setup directions were poorly translated to English and barely understandable. I do not recommend purchasing.

Don't waste your $$
Remote paired once to my fire stick 2nd gen, something happened and now it won't pair at all so I can't use my firestick unless I buy another remote control which I don't have the money to do right now! Don't waste your money.

If my dogs would stop chewing these up I wouldn't need to keep buying them.
So far I've had to buy this remote 3x. Damn dogs keep getting ahold of it and chewing it up. Other than not being indestructible to sharp puppy teeth or power chewers it really is easy to use.

Do not buy!
These remotes are garbage if you’re trying to use it with your firestick. The power button and volumes buttons won’t work . So you will still need a second remote if you wish to turn your tv on and off or use the volume at all. Not worth the price. Returning ASAP.

Works but only sometimes
Was able to pair this remote with my Firestick 4K but it did take a little while (i.e. not the smoothest of operations).Remote buttons are not "solid", especially parts of the circle portion but i could live with that given the reasonable price tag.What i can't live with is the remote seems to stop working whenever it feels like... and it's not like once or twice a day. It's literally will stop "communicating" with the Firestick once every 15 minutes or so - sometimes even more often. Thankfully the remedy is only a quick removal of 1 battery to reset the remote's electronics. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!

Don’t buy
If AZM would allow a zero star review, this would be at the very top of the list. It barely works if at all, and forget the equipment control to control volume. That’s never worked and Ive tied to connect it on several televisions. Constant have to remove the batteries just to get this POS to recognize the fire stick it’s paired with. Eats batteries on top of all that. If Amazon is the actual company putting this “replacement remote” out there on their store, this isn’t a good sign of quality they want attached to their brand. Don’t Buy!! Horrible buy on my part, will never buy another from Amazon if this their standard of equipment replacement products

Doesn’t work consistently
This works for the most part but it is glitchy with certain apps. For example it won’t run my Hulu or hgtv apps for some reason. Also haven’t been able to get it to control the volume for the tv which is 50% of the reason I chose this remote over other, so that was quite a let down.
