  • Absolutely horrible!

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

    I only wish that I could laeve -stars! I have had this thing for a couple of years. If you are the type of person that can't decide what temperature you would like you house to be and need google to do it for you, because they are smarter than you, this is your thermostat! EVERY DAY I set the temp and it is changed! I have reset it, looked for a way to change it, to stop it. Doesn't exist! Welcome to 1984!

      Hey there, GregP. We’re sorry to hear your experience with the Nest Thermostat Gen 4 hasn’t been the best. We’d like to provide you with some troubleshooting steps so you can get the right temperature:

      1. Disable learning for the temperature schedule — When Auto-Schedule or Smart Schedule is turned on, it learns from the adjustments you make to optimize your schedule. You can manually edit the existing schedule, create an entirely new one, or turn off these learning features.

      2. Turn off or adjust Eco Temperature — Your Nest thermostat gives you a temperature range you can select from when you set an Eco Temperature. The Eco Temperature ranges you can choose from are: 40-70°F (4-21°C) for heating mode and 76-90°F (24-32°C) for cooling mode.

      We’re just a click away anytime you need us: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

  • Zero support from google

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

    Nest was a great company until google bought. There is zero active support for the Nest, all you can do is search for other people’s posts that have tbe same problem as you - and there are no solutions. This product is overpriced garbage and has cause me to waste money - the Nest does not follow scheduled settings and turns on AC needlessly. Avoid!

    You won’t be able to set a target temperature because google doesn’t allow you, they’re control freaks. The range is 4 degrees, either too cold or too hot. Can’t make it automatically set around one temperature. Go with other brands.

      We appreciate the feedback on your Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen), Miike. We hear you on wanting to get the temperature exactly how you want.

      To adjust this setting, here is a quick guide to do so:

      > Open the Google Home app.
      > Select your thermostat.
      > Tap Settings
      > Tap Thermostat and then Advanced configuration.
      > Adjust the heat temperature difference and cool temperature difference as preferred.
