    Great product, not great look

    Ive had nest thermostats before, and have been quite pleased with the ease of scheduling temp changes, and enrolling in automated programs through the thermostat with the power company to take advantage of Rush Hour savings and rewards. A personal preference: i hate the new look. Its sort of mushroom shaped, and the wall plate is round, so when replacing other brands, you have to repaint the wall, because the corners are exposed. The temperature sensor is fantastic. We discovered our childs room is a cold spot, and put the sensor in there. Since then, it has done a great job of averaging out the temperature across the whole floor to ensure acceptable heating levels.

    EZ install - Uses google home app instead of nest app. Temperature sensor helped me adjust temp variances in the house to be more accurate. Install was easy and enjoy having the house swap to ECO while I'm at work.

    I live in an older home and there is always a huge temperature difference between my first and second floor. With this smart thermostat, I’m able to automatically adjust temperatures based on the times that I will be in either floor. This has relieved major annoyances I used to deal with on a daily basis. 100% recommend!

    I was skeptical of updating because the Gen 3 had been around for so long without issue. The Gen 4 feels better in every way. It feels solid when you touch it, the display is incredible and the added temperature sensor is a nice bonus.

    This was a huge improvement! I had one of the original google nest thermostats and this one is lightyears ahead of that one. The only reason I decided to even change was cause I had things from when they were all supported by the nest app. The temp sensor is pretty awesome also gives a better avg temp for my entire home.

    Let's be honest, it's a thermostat! A very high quality one so I give it high marks for that. It's not the cheapest or easiest to use(to turn off the system at the device you have to navigate into the settings and find off), so it doesn't get a perfect score. The convenience of the app immediately allows you to be more comfortable and the extra sensor adds to that. You can use it as the primary and let the temperature follow you around the house! Lastly it won't magically make your old furnace more efficient. It will give you more control which should save you some money without trying.

      We’re happy to hear you’re enjoying your Nest Thermostat Gen 4, AdrianW! We hear your concern on navigating to turn off your system through the thermostat. You can use the Home app to turn off your system rather than going to the thermostat each time — here’s how:

      1. Open the Google Home app.
      2. Tap Favourites or Devices and then select your thermostat.
      3. Tap Temperature mode.
      4. Select Off.

    Honestly, this thing is awesome. The setup was stupid easy — the app basically does all the work for you. The polished black look is super clean and gives my wall that modern vibe. The temp sensor that comes with it is a game-changer. I dropped it in my bedroom and now it actually stays the perfect temp at night. It learns my routine, saves energy, and I can tweak everything from my phone or just tell Google to handle it. If you’re on the fence — just get it. Worth every penny.

    This Google nest is great and worth the investment. it helps to save energy and to keep the spaces at a temperature. when i forget to turn off the air conditioner, i love how i can do it remotely. Installation was easy, I found the YouTube tutorial to be more helpful than the guide. I love how I can set the temp and let it adjust while I am gone. I have had the nest set up for almost 2 months and I love the aesthetic and sleekness of this.. It has so many great features that are so helpful, such as, information about the amount of humidity in the house. This is quiet, sharp looking.

    I recently purchased this because the 3rd generation nest was getting long in the tooth. The design is extremely elegent and the operation is very nice. This is a very worthy upgrade to an already great product. Im glad Google offers a Gold version as it goes extremely well with beige/tan/sandy wall colors. I highly recomend this product.

    The Nest Learning Thermostat is one of the best upgrades I’ve made at home. Setup was easy, and it quickly learned my schedule to keep the house comfortable while saving energy. The included Nest Temperature Sensor is a great bonus—it helps balance out rooms so the whole place feels just right. The polished silver finish looks premium and blends nicely with my décor. Controlling it from my phone or with Google Assistant is super convenient, and the energy reports are a nice touch. Overall, this thermostat and sensor combo is smart, reliable, and well worth the price.

    My previous thermostat had limited function and required manual adjustments between heating and cooling. The Nest thermostat provides that functionality and more. Helps to manage electricity use and provides you with outside temps and other functions. Their customer service helpline was there to guide me through the setup in addition to the various videos on YouTube.

    I’ve been using the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) with the Nest Temperature Sensor (2nd gen) in Polished Obsidian, and it’s easily one of the best smart home upgrades I’ve made. After a few days, the thermostat started adjusting temperatures based on my daily habits. No more constantly changing settings it just gets it right.
