Amazon - Smart Thermostat – Save money and energy - Works with Alexa and Ring - C-wire required - White

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.

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.

Installed quickly by using the in Alexa instructions only. I did run a new C wire but they do sell adapters if you can’t run a new wire. Works well would recommend

I absolutely LOVE this smart thermostat! My previous thermostat was a newer Honeywell so installation was simple. I already had all necessary wiring so I just took off the old and snapped on the new. I also have an Amazon ecosystem and it integrated seamlessly. I can now control my temp from the Alexa app and my Echos, see energy analysis, as well as my home's humidity. Simple, easy to use, and well worth the value!

I was using ecobee for almost 5 years and it was alright, it did its job. I needed a replacement and I didn’t want to spend a ton of money so going for the Amazon smart thermostat was definitely the best option. Ease of installation? Five stars. Easy to use and I really enjoy the simplicity of it.
