I have been considering getting a Nest Thermostat for serval months now after reading reviews and how the product can save you money.
I opened the package and the install couldn't have gone more smoothly. Everything I needed for my application was present and it frankly took longer to uninstall my previous one than it did to install my Nest.
The physical set up of the product in terms of software was a breeze. Easy to set up the mobile application as well.
I can tell already how much more efficiently my furnace is running. The thermostat was quick to learn my and my wife's habits and adjust to them. It keeps my fan running only when needed and gets the house nice and warm before bed.

My husband and I are super happy with this Nest thermostat!! We haven't gotten our energy bill yet since we've installed it so hopefully we see some savings!! Other than that it makes being a home owner stress free of adjusting thermostat. You can download the app on your phone and control the thermostat. It gets familiar with your schedule to know when someone is home and not and adjusts the temperature!! Plus, if I'm ever out of the house, I can always manually turn on or off from my app! The installation time says 30 minutes but it took a little longer but with the Nest support 24/7, it went fairly easy.

I want to preface this review with I absolutely love my Nest, but it absolutely does have some flaws that prevent me from giving it a perfect score.
First, for the positives - it does a great job of controlling my home AC - it reliably figures out when I am away, it learned my weekend and temperature habits fairly quickly, and the quick-look when you walk by in front of it works fantastically. It has a great "Heat & Cool" setting for days that start out warm but get cold in the evening, or vice versa, or you can leave it on heat or cool individually.
Unfortunately it has some quirks - While it reliably figures out when I am away, it has a tougher time figuring out when I am home. I have spent hours out for a day and come home, and it stayed on it's "Away" function even after an hour of being in the house.
Granted, both the app and the device get regular updates, and lately this quirk has happened less often, it was worth mentioning.
I absolutely love the product despite this and would recommend it to anyone looking to add a well connected and easy-to-setup smart thermostat to their home.

Wanted a connected thermostat, the Nest seemed to be the best choice after reading several comparison reviews. Installation was VERY easy (10 minutes tops-thank God I had a C-wire!). Set up was just as easy. They included a screwdriver, and not some cheap one either. It will be very difficult to throw it away LOL. So far operation has been great. Controlling remotely is a great feature!

The thermostat was east to install and keeps track of scheduled temperatures. With my IPhone I can turn temperature down when not at home and up upon my return.

We have had ZERO problems with our Nest Thermostat. Very easy to install if you have any sort of handyman experience. We noticed a reduction in our utility bill almost immediately. We like the fact that if we return from work, shopping, etc early we can set the thermostat before the drive home, so the temp is already adjusting and the house is comfy before we arrive. Its also nice to be able to adjust temp without getting out of bed. The fact that it works with our Nest Protect Detectors is a great bonus that hopefully we never have to use. But it definitely adds to the value.
The only feature that this thermostat is lacking is a "HOLD" feature for any specific temperature. I'm not sure why Nest hasn't updated its app or firmware to add this feature because every programmable thermostat has incorporated this feature for vacations, travel, etc. Other than that we have no complaints.

I am so happy with this purchase. Before installing I wasn’t sure if it would be compatible with our air unit so I called the Nest customer service number. They went above and beyond to help us get everything installed correctly. Installation was a breeze and didn’t require and reconstruction of our wall. I like that I am able to control the air temperature while away and after 4 days or so it learned my family’s schedule so our AC automatically turns on so that when we walk through the door the house is cooled back down. Very happy with this product

The nest works great, especially when you want it to cool your house before you get there. It learns pretty fast. Works decently with Amazon's Echo. Simple setup and easy to use.

For the longest time I thought the Nest was ugly. But I finally had enough with our old thermostat and saw this while buying a router so we gave it a shot. Installation was super easy and clean. The nest app is super easy and simple. This thing has a scheduler, home detection with Eco mode, works with Alexa with the Nest skill, controls through your phone, remotely, and can buy remote room sensors for detection using a remote room. Pretty much everything you need for energy efficiency. I would like to add that utilities likely offer rebates for installing. Thanks

This is my first time owning a smart thermostat and have only had it for a few months now, but in that time it has worked great. It works just like it says, it has my habits down. I really like being able to control it with an app as well.
It was extremely easy to install. I have never installed a thermostat before or really anything like this and even for me it was simple. I did take photos before I started because the stickers they give do fall off and did fall off for me after about 5 seconds of trying to maneuver them into the nest teeth.
Overall, really good product.

I was a little skeptical about purchasing one of these because they are the most expensive of the smart thermostats. I was very impressed with the build quality, and also the instructions to wire it. Installing this was a breeze because the instructions were so clear and there are even videos which make it even easier. Total installation time took about 15 minutes. Everyone is impressed when they see it. I love how Incan wake up in the middle of the night and change the temperature from my phone without even leaving my bed.

Spendy, but worth the investment

Most people are interested in the Nest Thermostat when you discuss features. Which there are a lot of. But there is a hesitation when they see the price. Understandable.
After two months I do have to say it is worth the investment. Living in Oklahoma I set it in Heat/Cool mode and haven't touched it since. I set the upper and lower temps and it handles it. Does a better than fair job keeping my house comfortable without my intervention. It knows when I'm home and when I'm away. And to be honest, I'm really impressed when how well the 'learning' part of this thermostat works.
Why only four stars? Let's be honest, price. For most of us $250 is a lot to spend for a thermostat. Even if it does do some very smart things. Would I purchase another one in the future? Probably. Would I replace my current one with the next new version? Probably not. It would have to be pretty compelling new features to do that. For right now it seems to do a good job managing the climate of my home.

1st this would if gotten 5 stars easily had it not been for the faulty software that started up at month 2. Very strange but something Google has been extremely good at giving you a replacement for. Also Best Buy since in the holiday return policy they literally took it back with no box and only the main unit since the rest was still on my wall. I took the new one home, stuck it in the plate from the other and it was working 2min later.
This thermostat is absolutely amazing and looks gorgeous up on the wall. The directions, as with ALL Google Nest products, are so easy to install, makes you wonder why everyone else for so long have made things so difficult.
I am highly impressed with all Nest products. Buy this you will not regret.
