    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!

    The 4th Gen Nest is very simple to install. I upgraded from Honeywell T9 to this model because of the features and to also modernize my home. The sensors that come with it also more accurate which provided a cooler house when we get home. But they cost $$ so be sure you really need this model.

    I wish I could give this a 4.5 rating but I'll round up to 5! I've always loved the Nest learning thermostat and have had the 3rd gen for years as well as the temp sensor! I travel a lot for work so it's always great for me to have it learn my habits as well as do the eco/away mode. And because heat rises, I love that I can put the temp sensor in my bedroom and have the nest use its temperature to keep me cool while I sleep. This new model is BEAUTIFUL!!! Google did a great job with the design and I love it! Highly recommend. My only complaint is that the screen is not as bright as the previous model and takes longer than expected to brighten up so you can't see the settings at a glance as easily as you can when you walk near it but it's not a deal breaker.

    It's a good thermostat. This new unit will only integrate with Google Home, and not the legacy Nest App which kind of frustrates me, as I still have an older unit downstairs. That being said, I do enjoy the new larger screen - but miss the blue/red screen tinting of the legacy devices.

      Hi there, BenjaminB. While we’re happy you're enjoying the Nest Thermostat Gen 4, we understand that adapting to the Google Home app from the Nest app may involve a learning curve, but we are committed to making this transition as seamless as possible. The Google Home app allows you to connect and control a wide array of devices, including speakers, cameras, thermostats, and lights, all from a single platform.
