*Buy any smart thermostat (CA) using local rebates! Made getting the smart thermostat worth it* Via local power company (PG&E, annd your local city Irrigation District etc. AND Golden State Rebates or whatever is offered by YOUR LOCAL legit state run programs. I got almost $125 off! Great item which goes along with all the smart products. As long as you take a picture of the wiring of old thermostat will be an easy install. Only had small trouble during synch to Google home when it wouldn’t read the QR code to start the connecting process. Overall really great product and looks sleek. Bought due to accidentally leaving a/c on all day using old standard thermostat. Switch to smart product, Numerous colors to choose from! Pros: -Easy access through app to control temps, -Savings using airwaves mode to keep house cool instead of using a/c -Stays connected to WiFi with no issues -Has learning mode to learn your schedule -$125 off via rebates - great Cons: -Turns off a/c when no activity is sensed passing thermostat (poss due to learning mode schedule) -initial set up with app (for me) was not connecting to Google home -connected via nest app which then popped up on Google home app

My AC service tech recommended this unit and I'm glad that I bought it. This unit looks great and works even better. The directions were good but I also watched a couple of installation videos on YT just to be certain about the wire connections. All in, it's easy to get up and running. I really like how the unit learns your usage patterns and programs itself to replicate those patterns after several days of consistent use. In fact, it's done such a good job of "learning" that I hardly use the app anymore to control the temperature. It just works! If your on the fence... just buy one. And if you're like me you'll be glad that you did.

The thermostat itself is great. Easy to install, connected to the network immediately, works and looks great. Alexa found it immediately and now I can boss my thermostat around from anywhere. Five stars, for sure. The optional back plate to cover the electrical box which sits behind the thermostat is less than ideal though. Thermostat is sleek and modern, the backplate is a cheap white plastic square with rounded corners that looks like a "builder's special" from Home Depot discount bin. I'm going to paint the plate to match the wall color and, hopefully, it will improve the overall look, otherwise I have to go hunting on Amazon for something a little more sleek.

Love this 3rd generation thermostat! Why did I not purchase this sooner. It’s perfection, works seamlessly. I set it and I don’t have to worry about it. It maintains your desired settings and I love that you can operate it from anywhere when you leave your home from the phone app. Goodbye to the obsolete thermostats. It looks great also. I purchased the stainless steel version. Can’t wait to test the cold/ hot settings when fall enters and your nights and mornings turn cold. I would recommend this product to anyone in need of a thermostat. It is pricey but so worth it.

Easy to install and it works flawlessly, I even had one wire wrong... turns out I have a heat pump, Their tech support was epic. 10 minutes on the phone and swapped a wire and done. Technician was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. Then I just started adjusting temp when neccasary and the third or fourth day it was doing it for me. Expensive? yes, awesome? Yes.
