    Great thermostat, easy to use with a zero learning curve. Ties into google home app and work with both android and apple devices. The temperature sensor that comes with it helps monitor the temperature and you can buy more and put one in every room.

    It’s a nice looking thermostat. The extra sensor works well and was easy to setup. I had lots of difficultly setting it up to HomeKit, but I assume there was an update on the device since it eventually worked after multiple days of trying. Probably not worth the upgrade from the old nest thermostats, but worth it if you don’t have a nest thermostat. You have to use the google app to install it. It does not work with nest app.

    Installed it today, replacing my 3rd gen. The display is larger and clearer, and my wife loves the gold color. It seems Google remove the support for the Nest app for this gen and instead using Google Home app to manage it. I like the interface in Google Home more actually as it more info in a single place. I hope the 4th gen is more smarter and the 2nd gen sensor is more accurate than those in previous gen.

    I am not a tech savvy person so being able to use this product to control my HVAC shows its ease of use. It is intuitive for me, and I imagine it can be intuitive for others. It appears to be very good quality, and I hope to get many years of use from it.
