    Very happy with the performance of the device and the interaction with my smart home ecosystem. Price is high, but with the rebates from my town and state, it isn't much more than a typical thermostat. The main downside for us was two issues: 1 - we don't have a common wire in the locations our thermostats are located and can't use the adapter sold separately, so we had to pay an electrician to run new wire. The only reason for a common wire is to power the more hungry Nest. Not sure why they couldn't just include a rechargable battery or even have one as an add-on. 2- We have radiant hydronic floor heating in one room and this Nest is not compatible with the Tekmar control system which regulates that room. While I realize these are different brands and compatibility is not required, it would be nice if they could work a software patch that would allow the Nest to interact. The patch could be sold for a reasonable price with the proceeds getting split between the manufacturers. One other annoyance is we wish we could set each thermostat to respond to individuals not being home. Currently if everyone isn't home, it will go into ECO mode and stop heating/cooling according to the temperature range you set. However, my teenage daughter has her own thermostat and it would be great if that one thermostat would shutoff the system when she left for work or school.

    Unfortunately, this did one did not work for me since I have 2 zones. So for ANYONE reading this if you have more than 1 zone or more than 1 power supply this WILL NOT work for you. You will have to get the Google Learning Nest. Yeah I learned. Learned to spend way more money. Oh yeah, save yourself some time and buy the faceplate at an additional 15 bucks plus tax. You will need it. FYI the faceplate is included in the Learning Nest and the Nest-E. I'm sure this one works great if it works for you.

      Hi ToasterOvenBuyer,

      Thanks for sharing your review of Nest Thermostat. We’re sorry to hear it didn’t work for you.

      Though Nest Thermostat would generally work without a common(C) wire, some systems such as the ones that can’t deliver enough power, gas valves, and zone or relay panels require a common(C) wire to work with Nest thermostats. You would need to contact a local pro for C wire installation.

      If you're willing to give us another opportunity to work with you to help out with the issue, we'd be happy to do our best to assist. You can get in touch with us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/contactflow Nest

    Okay I may sound like a Google fan boy but I don't care at this point. I set it up for my elderly parents and they love it. My Dad can ask Google what it is set at and tell it to lower the temp and then 30 minutes later when my mom is freezing she can turn it back up. This thing works great. It walked me through step by step on the wiring. Our house was built in 1986 so I was worried the wiring might be different but they had it all covered. It is easy to adjust and program manually or across the Google Home app.

    I used a Nest for about 9 years before this one; however, I didn't realize there was a major difference. I had the Learning Nest Before and it was amazing. Never had an issues with the Nest App, programable instantly and connected to my Wi-Fi no problem. This product does not connect to the Nest App, it only uses Google Home but it disconnects every week. The Nest is still connected to the Wi-Fi but the App just disconnects. Other than that 1 issue, i LOVE It.

    The product was easy to install being. I already had one and our other home. Unfortunately, there was not a backup plate to cover the thermostat that was taken off. The description on the box made it appear that there was a backup plate however we had to buy that item separately.
