I`ve tried both the 8 way E pilot £ 70.00 and the SRC-2010 10-Way £ 130.00 in the last 3 months and been disappointed with both.
Either being awkward to use ( 2010 )or losing programming ( Epilot )
By comparison the £ 8.00 remote I bought from Aldi performs very well. I`d go for the topline first at a tenner as at that price you can`t lose.
Moral is, if the cheap one fit most of your requirements, forget the others unless you can afford something like the Phillips Pronto.

can tell you the topline 8 works everything i own

even a cheap unbranded dvd player from superdrug, i phoned One For All
help line told them the dvd player was a mustek 56 they downloaded the code into the remote. it also operates a Marantz sr4200 av tuner [not fully
but the buttons you would use most after setup]and all braned tvs vcrs.
its not as sleek as a pronto but with kids in the house £150 on a remote
£40 on the docking station not recomended.if there are any left [ring the mail order because web always says out of stock]get the topline 8.
