    I really like this thermostat. It provides better information than my last Google thermostat. That said, I had to have my son, who is much more tech savvy than I am, do all the set up in the Google home app. I probably could’ve done it in a day, but he did it in an hour. Still I really do recommend this thermostat.

    I skeptical at first, but this smart thermostat really does help keep our west central Florida home at a more constant temp. Summers are brutal in Pinellas County, Florida. It's nice that we can set the air higher when we are away and then pop on the app and have our home comfortable when we arrive.

    I love the presence sensing that sets it to Eco when I leave. However the deal killer with this product is unlike every programmable thermostat I have ever owned, the Nest is impossible to return to it's programmed schedule after a manual change. Not in the app, not on the thermostat, not by voice command. Google suggests turning it to off for 5 minutes then back on but it remembers the manual setting. Here is the bottom line. It stays at the manual setting until the next time of a programmed temperature change. So in everyday use it is just a pain to use. Feel free to look it up. Many compaints out there and Google says it just wasn't a "feature" they included.

    So far so good. I like the look of the thermostat on the wall and that it can work with my iPhone such as Siri. But bad thing is that it does not work with nest app anymore you will have to use Google Home app from now on which is okay also.

    I’ve always loved the Nest Learning Thermostats. I was worried that they wouldn’t come out with a new Learning one. I wasn't a fan of the dummied down ones. It has been great and looks very nice on my wall. I would definitely recommend it!
