ecobee - Enhanced Smart Programmable Touch-Screen Wi-Fi Thermostat with Alexa, Apple HomeKit and Google Assistant - Black

I bought the Ecobee Smart Thermostat Enhanced to replace my old thermostat and honestly expected it to be a bigger headache to install than it was. It ended up being pretty straightforward. The app basically walks you through everything step by step. It tells you to shut off the breaker, remove the old thermostat, and then shows exactly where each wire should go on the new one. The terminals are clearly labeled and the mounting plate went on the wall easily. I’m not an HVAC guy by any means, but the whole process took me maybe 30–40 minutes taking my time. Once it was wired up, the thermostat powered right on and guided me through the rest of the setup. Connecting it to Wi-Fi and finishing the configuration through the app was simple. Now that it’s installed, it’s been working really well. The temperature in the house stays steady and the system kicks on exactly when it should. Being able to adjust the thermostat from my phone is honestly one of my favorite parts. If I’m out or just don’t want to get off the couch, I can change the temperature instantly. Overall I’m really happy with it. Installation was way easier than I expected and it’s been running smoothly ever since. If you’re thinking about upgrading to a smart thermostat but are worried about the install, this one is very doable.

I've been using the Ecobee Enhanced Smart Thermostat for a couple months and my overall experience with it has been great. Setup was pretty easy. Took my about an hour to remove my old one and install the Ecobee. Very detailed steps on installation included in the app. They walk you through the whole setup process. Ecobee provides many features that I'm a fan of. First the schedule setting. I like that I can set my own schedule throughout the week and will get recommendations on how it could possibly be more efficient. The app to control Ecobee is easy to navigate and simple to use. It pretty much has the same UI as the thermostat itself. Changing the temp on the thermostat or the app is as simple as touching the current temperature and adjusting up or down. Overall design and look is great. I wanted something that wouldn't be an eye sore and Ecobee did a great job with the design.

Needed a thermostat, after realizing that my next thermostat was causing my a c unit to blow excessively hard. After reading several reviews, I landed on the Ecobee. I bought a two pack of sensors so have a total of three sensors connected.They do a better job than my own nest.Thermostat did with regulating the temperature on the downstairs level of my house. I prefer the touchscreen and graphic interface of the unit and the app interface to google's Nest, which can seem clunky. I waited after several weeks of use to write my review. I'm more than satisfied with the purchase. Installation was seameless. I did originally purchased the Essential Model but realized I have a C Wire. Returned and upgraded to the mid level model. I would have been just as satisfied with the top end model.

We had a Google Nest prior to purchasing the Ecobee thermostat and after about a year we could not get it to connect to our network to use the functionality of the Google Nest App. So, after installing an Ecobee for a customer, I HAD to get one for myself. Super easy set up and very convenient to be able to control the temperature from your phone. Very simple to use and is perfect for the new age “smart home” set ups!

I love this thermostat. Especially being able to schedule times that I want my temperature to change (mainly when I forget) and the capability of doing it when I am not home is a plus! It was really easy to install, even though I didn’t have a C wire, since the instructions were step by step when I downloaded the app.
