Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this primarily for the ability to connect to a remote thermostat (our home has multiple thermostats/zones). The Best Buy sales rep did a great job pointing out the feature works only with this stat, not the prior Nest. So, I paid more than I hoped for, but it was necessary for that feature. Other than that, it's been a good stat! :) We also have a number of Google appliances, so the connection/integration feature is nice, but not used much. It took me a few minutes to understand where to swipe, but once I figured that out, navigation is pretty intuitive. Installing the app on your phone seems necessary but not something I anticipate using. I'm an Android user, so no issues there with app. Partner is iPhone and haven't tried download. I have not yet set up programs/schedules yet (we're working from home mostly), but don't anticipate significant challenges. Overall...it's nice looking, easy to hook up (I like the built in level on the mounting plate!) and does what's is supposed to do...and much more that I haven't tried.

Installation was a snap, after looking at the install videos. Like anything, you have to get used to using them. Once you get the hang of them and they start learning your daily habits, they make house comfort easy.

I’m pretty impressed with how easy this was to install AND how easy it is to control from your smartphone. It truly learns the temperatures. Our bill has already went down within the first 60 days of installation.

Once I figured out that the Nest needs a 24 V supply from the furnace, and got it installed, it has been great. I like the feature that enables me to control the run time via my smart phone. And ability to track how much time it ran each day is nice. Is it saving me money, probably not as much as I'd like, but it does seem to have a tighter temperature control band than my old programmable thermostat.

This thermostat is easy to install and setup and it works flawlessly. I love the networked features and am able to adjust temps easily remote. Links to smoke detectors for added safety. Just a really good product.

Love the nest thermostat. Nice look. Easy to use. Sadly couldn't get one to work with my upstairs unit for some reason but the main downstairs always works great

I love how is really easy to install it works great

I never thought I needed a internet-connected thermostat but this smart device has really changed my life for the better! It was super easy to install. I did have to send a photo of my current wiring diagram to tech support and within minutes they sent me exactly what I needed to correctly hook up my existing wires to my new Nest Thermostat. Also the geofencing works perfectly! When I leave my house it automatically puts my thermostat in eco mode saving me money and as I approach my house the thermostat will turn back on and resume heating or cooling my house to my desired temperature. I would definitely recommend this Nest thermostat and even my Nest Protect to any interested tech savvy home buyer both products were very easy to install and really are a great way to enhance your everyday home living experiences.

The nest is easy to install as long as you mark your wires. Learns quickly and I love the remote feature (being able to change the temp while on the way home or just being lazy and not having to go upstairs to change the thermostat)

This thermostat is a game changer. I can control the temp of my house from anywhere and scheduling is a breeze. The only issue I had with it was install. Instructions are clear for the most part but when wiring doesn’t match colors wise at that point it’s trial and error. I flipped the breaker as stated to the ac but my air handler still has power to the heat pump. Mistake on my part. Should’ve taken maybe twenty minutes to install but took almost an hour due to popping a fuse. The diagnostics that the nest will give you is bland so there’s a lot of back tracking if any issues come up.

Took a bit longer to install than I anticipated, but was entirely my fault. Didn't take the two seconds to look at the different wiring setup for my unit that has a heat pump. Once properly installed, the Nest looks and performs great.

I love this. It makes life easy. I can program it or adjust it to cool the house before I get home. It was very easy to install.

Perfect for when you are in a hurry and away. You can control the temperature of your home. Learns your schedule and goes in eco mode when away. Uses GPS on phone to turn on heat when getting close to home. Love it!

Most people either love it and there are some who hate it. My experience has mostly been positive, but I docked it one star for the C-Wire stuff. I installed it as per the Video instructions and things went fine. I finally realized after a day that my Heating did not work anymore. My old Honeywell thermostat did not have a C wire connected, and I assumed my nest thermostat would not need it either. Unfortunately it did. Luckily for me the Blue C wire was available, just not connected. After connecting the Blue C wire, things have been fine, other than the Nest thermostat telling once in a while that there is a problem with my Furnace and that it shut down after 10 minutes. Looked up online and checked with few of my friends, its a common complaint from Nest thermostats. For the positives : An App, and the ability to control via voice assistants and remotely as well makes it well worth it.

We bought this device about 6 months ago but didn't install it till just about a week ago. I had some help with the install, but it seemed fairly easy to do. This thermostat is full of great features which we are still getting use too. We love the ability to manage it through out mobile phones and the cant get over how nice it looks once installed.

I'm very glad I purchased the Nest for my house. It was very intuitive to install, and with the app on my phone, it is great to monitor or even change from another room. Getting the rebate from my local energy company is a great bonus as well.

The nest thermostat is great! I like how we able to link the google nest to our alarm system. This is very useful. We would recommend it to anyone who is interested in buying. This also very user friendly.

The Google Nest learning smart WIFI thermostat was a fairly easy install. Its design is so sleek. I am very happy with this purchase.

Was looking for a thermostat that has remote access from a wireless device. This Nest thermostat is amazing, easy to install and setup is a breeze. Above all it looks great "high tech" on the wall as well. Since this generation has also far-sight, it shows the room temperature when "far" from the thermostat or when close by it shows the temperature where it is going to (as adjusted) including the amount of time it would take. It is also a self learning thermostat that keeps track of when someone is at home or not and adjust the temperature accordingly (that needs to be pre-setup). This thermostat also communicates with other Nest products such as Nest Protect (smoke/CO2 detector) as well the Nest-cam. Overall I would say, if you want to convert to a "smart home" it starts with this thermostat. It is worth the investment.

So easy to install. The instructions will walk you through the steps so you really can't make a mistake. It looks fantastic on the wall, the main display is high resolution so it is easy to read onscreen text. And operation is just as easy; i was amazed at how quickly it picked up our weekly and daily patterns. After a couple weeks, we hardly touch the thermostat at all. I like that it can be controlled remotely, and that it also links to other home control applications. Although I don't use the feature very often, it is nice to know it's there if needed. It's too early to tell for sure if our utility bills will go down or up, but it appears to be slightly lower so far. Even if there's not a significant cost savings, the control features make this well worth the price.
