    Wish They Worked as Great as They Look

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Installation was made super-easy with video and included tools (although it seemed wasteful to include a tool in each package for people like me who bought multiple units but only needed one tool). Set up was also easy, and the Nests look fantastic and work ok overall (more on where they fall short below). Small issue is the app (for remote control) could be more intuitive. Larger issue is that when I set all thermostats to "Away" (with a single tap in the app, which is great) they do not stay set to away for some reason... in four days of being away on vacation, I've gone into the app six time to confirm that the thermostats were still set to Away, and four times they were back on their regular schedule heating the house. So I had to again manually set to Away 4 times. Not only is this gitch annoying (because part of the proposition of having these is peace of mind, not having to think about them or do things manually) but they are not saving me money if they're running the heat to the same temps as if we were home. My old programmable were a pain to manually set when we were going on vacation (and then to reset to regular programs when we got home) but at least they worked properly. Nests are cool, but so far they have not been as set-it-and-forget-it as I was led to believe.

    Installed this smart thermostat at my parents house and they love it! Easy to install and connect to the WiFi and Nest app. My parents aren't very tech savvy, but this couldn't be any easier for them to use.

    Already seeing the savings

    We had a very difficult to understand thermostat in our hundred-year-old house. We never could figure out how to get that one to come on at the right times (and I'm a pretty smart guy). Enter the Nest... Installation was practically dummy-proof. From the moment we installed it, we had no doubt that it was finding the optimal settings for heating and cooling our home. Bottom line: It does what I tell it to do. We are already seeing savings in both electricity and gas bills. I also love the fact that I can tweak it from anywhere using my smart phone or tablet. And the interaction between other Nest products is also helpful.

    I had been watching this item for a long time before my purchase. When I saw the generation 2 on sale for $199, I was tempted to make the purchase, but when I read the reviews on the generation 2 I decided to go with the generation 3. The installation went well, the directions were sufficient for a novice person to understand. The only difficulty that I experienced was getting the app to work correctly. At the start, the app was unable to connect with the nest unit. Something must've gone wrong with the initial start up process, but after restarting the nest unit, the problem was corrected and I am now able to see my nest unit online.

    This is actually the 3rd NEST thermostat that I have had experience with and ALL of them work perfectly, are extremely easy to set up, and help save money almost immediately. The box contains EVERYTHING that you need for smooth installation. You DO NOT need a professional.

    Very easy to install and has been a great camera for use outside our house. All you need to do is hang the camera and plug into an electrical outlet. Can review clips and live footage on your camera or PC.

    Added Convenience For Your Home

    Recently purchased this during a Black Friday deal and I'm happy I did. it looks attractive in my living room and I could install it without much difficulty. It's too soon to know if I will save money, but it's nice that I no longer have to remember to turn the thermostat down at night and before I go to work. It is expensive, and not NEEDED by most, but if you are into technology and find it for less than MSRP, you will be happy.

    Great Thermostat, there is a learning curve

    This is a great thermostat and it does exactly what it is supposed to do. I have had lower heat bills and it is great at cycling the temp down during the day and evenings. It has taken a while for me to get used to "turning the heat up remotely" before I go home. You can have it on a program that goes "on" an "off" at certain times but my schedule varies and I travel. Overall, an excellent product and I would buy it again....

    Best thermostat for the Google platform!

    After years of not believing the hype and not wanting to spend $250 on a thermostat, I broke down and purchased one of these beauties. The price dropped to $219 which helped, but I finally pulled the trigger on the purchase and couldn't be happier. Installation and setup was a breeze. It only took about 25 minutes for my son and I to get it up and running and programmed. The only downside is that it doesn't work with Apple's Home application, so Siri voice control doesn't work to control the device. That being said, we have the Nest app installed on our phones, and my son has a Google Home Mini in his room, so we are set. If this worked with Apple, Amazon Alexa and Google it would be perfect.

    Great Smart, Energy-Efficient Thermostat

    Several years ago, in an effort to make our previous home more energy efficient with smart home technology, we changed out 2 smart home thermostats provided by our home security company that were malfunctioning for 2 Nest 3rd Gen Learning Smart Thermostats. It was one of the best decisions that we’ve ever made. Not only are the thermostats very easy to use both at home and remotely, but they are truly smart in that they learn your patterns, adjust your home temperatures automatically when you are away and the actual energy savings are real. We loved our Nest 3rd Gen Learning Smart Thermostats so much that when we built our new home in Nov 2019, we choose to install them again. We highly recommend this product.

    Convenient Cost Savings

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I absolutely love having this Google Nest! I think the thing I love most is the ability to adjust the thermostat remotely. Whether from another room or away from home, this provides such a convenience. If I leave home and forgot to adjust, I can just pull up the app and change the set point. I can also adjust the temperature before coming home so it’s a comfortable temperature upon arrival. I can set the more predictable schedule but have the option to adjust from anywhere for the less predictable. The only issue is occasionally it will disconnect from the WIFI, in which case it cannot be controlled by the app, but it’ll often reset or will do so once I mature contact with the thermostat.

    I have most of the Google smart home product's, and was hearing good things about the learning thermostat. We've had it in play now for about 4 weeks and I've noticed the temperatures are even in our house, upstairs and down. This thing truly works! We utilized the eco mode on this, and have already seen the savings on my electric bill. A bonus. The thing looks pretty cool, a minimalist aethestic! I would highly recommend.

    Learning Aspect is Awesome!

    This device has been operational for about a week and has very quickly learned our routine. I compared this thermostat to some other learning thermostats on the market and am very please with this purchase. The appearance is hands down second to none in my opinion. The connectivity with our smart home voice assistant is a very worth while feature alone. Telling a small speaker to change the temperature or ask the current is very handy. Last and probably the most significant upgrade - HUMIDITY READING! I had no clue the importance of maintaining a healthy humidity in the house and this device keeps good measure of the current. Have not yet received our first utility bill after the installation of this device, but the way it has been running/not running the furnace - I feel that it will be energy saving as it claims.
