    This thermostat is great! I had the original Nest thermostat and this is such an improvement. I have also used Ecobee thermostats, but those do not integrate well with the Google Home app if you use the auto mode.

  • Nest 4 gen Display

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

    Better features than the previous Nest. It has a lot more smart and eco modes. As for the display, you cannot pick up the brightness as in the previous model, so the new feature of seeing the weather animation is not that bright on the screen. The brightness and how it pops out more on the wall are my dislikes.

    We have own nests for a while now. We had it in our previous home (2nd generation) and the home before (1st generation). We just moved into our new home, bought the nest (4th generation), had it installed and noticed that the fan continued to run while not cooling the home down. We had professionals come out to figure out what was wrong. They ended up bypassing the thermostat to see that the ac was running correctly, but issue was the actual thermostat. We have a newer York ac and were told that this nest generation has been having issues since they came out. Please avoid! We eneded up replacing it with the Honeywell smart thermostat.

    Upgraded from the Gen3 from 2014. This is definitely and improvement on multiple levels. With more flexible sensor scheduling and nicer screen. The only reason for the 4 stars is it's price. This and 3 more sensors was quite a bit.
