The remote came with our 2012 Cougar, purchased in March of 2012. What we found in using it is the ability to be outside and watch the slide come out and know you are not going to hit anything or running the Awning in or out its nice to make sure that the arms are retracting smoothly. The remote has other uses and can be convenient to some but its cost is high so hope that Keystone put the money some where else in the unit that would be more advantages.
