I installed this about 3 weeks ago and after a week went by, it learned my schedule and automatically scheduled itself to turn on and off when I needed it to. It's also nice to be able to control it from my phone when I'm not there. Another nice feature is its ability to be connected to my chamberlain MyQ garage door and my kwikset kevo front door lock so when I leave the house and it "sees" that no one else is home, it automatically goes into away mode.

We have a dual zone setup (only 1 outside unit) - and they still work as they should. Temps have been nice and very easy to see and use (no more high/low temp settings). Being able to control them via the phone is nice as well. May get some more Nest products (like the doorbell). I had it installed and set-up by Best Buy squad as well - a bit pricey for what it entails, but worth the money so that i didn't have to hassle with it.

Enjoy having the flexibility of a learning thermostat to help automate my personal settings. Very easy and intuitive to use and is linked to my lighting system as well as my smoke detectors with nest. Also love having the ability to control things while away from home to make sure everything is ready for me upon return.

During my routine furnace maintenance this fall, I asked the serviceman about installing a smart thermostat. He said that it would cost me about $125 if they did it, but he removed the cover of my previous thermostat and labeled all the wires for me so that I could install the Nest myself. This was very helpful, because not every system used exactly the same colors and codes. Installation was very easy except for one wire I wasn't 100% sure about, so I called Nest support and spoke with a technician. He checked the information about my existing thermostat and was able to clarify the confusion for me. I mention this because I was very impressed with the speed and efficiency of the customer service.
As for the Nest itself, I love it. Setup was easy: you connect it to your WiFi network and answer some questions (language, location, etc.) and you're good to go. The app is good and shows you what you need to know. The Nest will "learn" your usual routines and if you are usually gone during a certain time of day, it will reduce the temperature. You are always free to override this if you happen to be home, or just want it warmer or cooler .
What I noticed right away was that my furnace only kicks into the highest fan speed in the morning when the house has to warm up from having been set at a lower temperature all night. During the day, I rarely hear the fan at high speed, unlike with my previous thermostat.
I also like that you select the temperature just by rotation the outer dial, which is a lot easier and more convenient than hitting little up and down arrows. The temperature shows when you are within range of the thermostat and it's easy to read from a distance. As you approach the Nest, it shows you what the thermostat is set to.
The display also shows the outdoor temperature and indoor humidity.
I bought mine on sale, and also got a $100 rebate from my utility company since I have both gas and electric from them.

We bought the Nest Thermostat a little over a month ago and we're already seeing a savings in energy use. It really does learn our habits of when we're home and adjusts temps based on the temps outside. Super easy to install thanks to the included instructions. My wife loves that she can adjust the settings while we're not at home or in bed. The best thing about the Nest Thermostat is that it integrates with so many of our other devices (Simplisafe, Rachio, and others). I truly believe that we were really missing out before we bought this item.

I had been looking into buying a Nest thermostat for some time so when CPS Energy offered a $150 credit for purchasing and installing it along with enrollment in their energy savings program, I pulled the trigger. Installation was easy even for me. I'm not one to typically do these home projects but professional installation quotes in my area were ridiculous. Provided instructions were easy to follow and within 20 minutes it was installed and running. Blends beautifully with my home. We're excited to see how our monthly bills will compare to last summer.

The thermostat is easy to install and set up. It depend the first week learning your schedule so don't install right before a vacation (like it did). it has a motion sensor to see when you are at home which is a great function if you use the room where the thermostat is a lot. The phone app is nice if you get hot in the night (like from hot flashes) or if you want it super cool at night but don't want to get out of bed to a frigid house. Just pop open the app and turn the temperature up or down without leaving your bed let along walking downstairs.

This little device is awesome. I wish I had upgraded sooner. Pretty easy to install, clear easy to follow instructions. App setup was very easy too. Best part is being able to control temp in the house when I'm not there, I like the "away" feature, I don't use it but I can see how it is very nice addition to apps feature, saving money by not heating/cooling house when you're not there.
Awesome little device!

The nest thermostat is a wonderful tool. The perfect alternative to your typical thermostat, the nest is smart. It is also easy to use and go from heat to cool and control the temperature. You can set it so that the temperature will know when the space is occupied or not occupied. It is an energy saver. Love it!

I have been wanting a Nest thermostat for a few years but the previous reviews weren't that great a few years ago when it came out. I finally broke down and got one and really loved it. I thought I'd need to hire an electrician but it was really simple to install it myself. It comes with everything you need in the box.
I waited a week after installing it to make sure everything worked well and it was perfect. So perfect that I bought another for my downstairs thermostat and it's working perfectly as well. I love it.

Google Nest Smart Thermostat

Recently, we purchased two Google Nest Smart Thermostats and had them installed by the Geek Squad. We couldn't be more happy with these thermostats. They are easy to use, pleasant to the eye and, after about one week, they learn your temp settings and begin establishing settings on their own unless you override them. We are so pleased with them that we plan to have a 3rd one installed in the near future.

Nest Worked- Just Not with My Central Air Unit

I liked the way that it works, except for one thing. It was not compatible with my particular central air system. Nest says that their product works with 95% of all systems. Mine wasn't one of them. It seems pretty intuitive to use. Choose a program, turn the dial, and then tap to enter. My unit stayed on at 72 all the time. While I tried to adjust the Nest temperature up and down, my system did not respond to my requests. Regretfully, I had to return my Nest. I would recommend it, BUT anyone considering buying should check for compatibility with their a/c unit (Label).
