Very easy to install...highly recommended
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.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.

Definitely Would Recommend!!
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.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!

Amazon thermostat
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Worth the money to purchase. I did not give 5 stars as the thermostat is tied to the Alexa app on my phone. You can set what are called, "hunches". You can also set temperature ranges for when you are sleeping and when no one is home. Unfortunately when hunches is on, you cannot use your Echo speaker to set a different temperature. Example, night temperature is set to 68-70 degrees. If you ask Echo to set temperature to 71, you will get a response that hunches is kepping the temperature between 68 and 70 degrees. To over ride, you have to go into app to do so. Other than that, works great and fairly easy installation.

Smart thermostat
||Posted .Owned for 3 months when reviewed.Install was easy, but with our particular situation this was not a product I was able to use to its full potential, and ended up returning. Due to our particular internet set up, this thermostat was not a viable option in the end, though if we had standard internet services I would not hesitate to use this product. At our previous home we had several of these style devices, and it really tied the home together and gave us a lot more security / access to features that we otherwise wouldn't have.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionI 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 +
Asked by BOBO.
- A:Answer 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!

Q: QuestionI have two thermostats in my house, one on main floor, one upstairs. Can I name each one differently, will they work independently?
Asked by FinnNC.
- A:Answer Hi FinnNC! Yes, you can use multiple thermostats in a single household. Each device is controlled individually and runs on a separate schedule. However, we are aware that for some customers, the Alexa app will incorrectly display the same schedule for multiple devices. For example, if a change is made in the schedule for one thermostat, the second thermostat shows the same schedule change in the Alexa app. Please note that this is just a temporary app display error and your devices will still follow the designated individual schedule. This will be addressed in next Alexa app update. For a temporary workaround, force close the Alexa app and go to the thermostat of your choice to see the correct schedule. To check another thermostat, force close the Alexa app and view the other thermostat. Hope this helps, have a wonderful day!

Q: QuestionDoes this thermostat has fan only settings like the "Airwave" on Google Nest or the "Circulate Fan" option on Emerson Sensi or Honeywell Lyric T5 models?
Asked by FanSettings.
- A:Answer Our Goodman Gas Furnace is 7+ years old, and we are able to set the fan to Auto, Circulate, or On using the Alexa app. All three options are available on the app under Fan.

Q: QuestionDo this thermostat require a c-wire
Asked by Dee.
- A:Answer Hi Dee! This Amazon Smart Thermostat requires a power source in order for it to function, and the "C" wire provides 24v +/- of AC power to the thermostat for that purpose. If the current thermostat that you're replacing has a "C" wire, then you don't need the adapter. However, If the thermostat you're replacing does not have a "C" wire, then you need to install the adapter. Hope this helps, enjoy your day!

Q: QuestionCan you set it to specific temps at specific times?
Asked by Nadia.
- A:Answer Hello Nadia, the Amazon Smart Thermostat can be programmed to go on and off at certain times as well as the temperature. You can also create temperature zone, and the thermostat learns from you for when you are home and away. I hope this helps. Have a great day!
