Q: I AM INTERESTED IN THE THERMOSTAT. HOWEVER YOU HAVE LIMITED INFO. DOES IT HAVE GEO FENCING? DOES IT LEARN LIKE NEST? IS THE SCREEN WHIT? OR CAN IT CHANGE COLORS? I AM TRYING TO DECIDE WHICH ONE TO PURCHASE +

A: Hello BOBO! This thermostat is a white display and utilizes Alexa for many of the similar features you are asking about using what are called Hunches. Here's how Hunches work: When your phone leaves your home area and nobody interacts with Alexa for a while, Alexa might have a hunch nobody’s home. If no one interacts with Alexa for a while at night, she might have a hunch everyone is asleep. When someone interacts with Alexa or uses smart devices, she can tell that someone is home. Alexa learns from your daily interactions and improves over time. You can also help Alexa know when you go to bed or leave home by saying, “Alexa, goodnight.” or “Alexa, I’m leaving.” The voice features do require an Alexa supported device such as an Echo (sold separately) or through the Alexa app on your smartphone. I hope this answers your questions and that you have a fantastic day!

    Very easy to install...highly recommended

    This thermostat is incredibly easy to install, and with the power company rebate, the cost was free. If I subtract the time it took me to get my tools and a ladder from the garage to access the furnace in the attic, install time was 4 minutes. My previous thermostat had three wires connected: W, R, G, so all I had to do was remove the old thermostat, install the new one and connect the previously unused blue wire to the "C" terminal on the thermostat and also inside the furnace. It couldn't have been simpler. I try to keep the use of the furnace as minimal as possible, so I set a daily schedule for 52° at 6AM, 9AM, 5PM, and 10PM. When I want to turn the furnace on, I'll ask Alexa to turn it on. It will heat to my "home" temperature of 68° and then will set it back to 52° (away) for the next cycle. Works great, so that if I leave home after getting up and forget to turn it off, it will turn it back down to 52° at 9AM.

    Really good functionality for cheap price

    Another thumbs up here. Setup was simple. I had a 5 conductor thermostat wire in the wall with the blue taped off because my "dumb" thermostat operated on 2 AA bateries. I just had to go into the attic and terminate the spare blue wire on the Common lug of the control board and the wiring of this thermostat was a breeze. Also kudos to the Amazon Thermostat brand for including an oversized decorative plate to cover the entire massive hole behind the old larger "dumb" thermostat. No sheetrock repair needed. Setup through the Alexa app was very intuitive (easy peasy). I already had 9 echo dots scattered throughout my house, so once it was linked to my wifi, I had full voice control of the thermostat from everywhere immediately. Awesome product.

    Set it and forget it.

    It was a fairly easy install I did it myself. Setup with the app was easy as well. It's nice to be able to just set my preferred temp range and forget it. It pretty much just runs on it's own now. It's been over a month and no problems.
