    You can only use it with a common wire so if you use it in an older condo, it won’t be awesome.

    For what I was able to get it to work, it was great, but it ultimately was not fully compatible with my home, and I ended up replacing it with the higher model.

    Nest Thetmostat. Issue

    I am concerned... it did what I expected it to do and was very pleased. However, I had a wifi outage and this actually caused the thermostat to power down. It should not do this. Best Buy Total Tech ( I am a member) repeatedly said it is normal. Then it powers down when I adjust my humidistat. Nest says it us likely defective or wired wrong. Total Tech says it is operating normally. I will continue to pursue this. I think the thermostat could be great if this gets resolved.

    Not as nice as original Nest Thermostat E.

    Not as nice as original Nest branded Thermostat-E. Picture shows a white face, but it is actually a black/mirrored face. Does NOT, AND I REPEAT NOT, blend in with white wall. Outer ring is white, or whatever color option you choose. Additionally, now that these are "Google Nest" branded thermostats, you MUST use the google assistant app to set up and control these. I Replaced an original Nest (pre-google/nest) unit and the original Nest thermostat app was MUCH nicer and intuitive to use. In addition, the old Nest used a flat lithium battery and had a micro-usb port to charge it in an emergency. The new google-nest unit uses rechargeable AA batteries and has no charging port for them. FYI, the wifi transmitter in my original nest thermostat failed after about 4 years, which is why I bought this one.

      Hi ItsJustMe, thanks for posting a review. We’re sorry to hear that the new Nest Thermostat didn’t meet your expectations.

      The new Nest Thermostat is exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience. Our long term plan is to use the Google Home app as the one place you can control all of your favorite Nest and other smart home devices, as well as Google Assistant. In the near future, we’ll allow users to set up previous Nest devices and have full control in the Home app. Also, it uses 2 standard 1.5 V AAA alkaline batteries that you’ll need to replace when they get low. You’ll get notification on the thermostat and in the Home app when the batteries start to get low.

      Your feedback is important to us as it will greatly help us in improving our products and services. If you need assistance, our support team is always here to help. Feel free to contact us here anytime: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Works like we need it to. Perfect for being able to adjust the temp from bed or another room. At first we were worried about the low buzzing we would hear coming from it, but apparently that's normal. Definitely like the sleek look of it!

    I have 2 of these. They are extremely easy to install, set up and operate. I love the touchscreen, look and feel. The app on the phone is fine. Easy to get to, change and operate. Well worth the price, but I am not "super fancy". I like functional over fancy.

    Overall a good product, works well and easy to install. I did not like having to go online to get installation instructions. Also they did not clearly describe how to use the unit as far as adjusting and making menu selections. They should have done that first. Optional Backplate should have been included.

    The Nest Thermostat definitely is an investment to help save on heating costs. It is easy to install and set up to maintain three temperature settings of comfort, eco, and sleep. If your system doesn’t have a “common” thermostat wire the Google wiring adapter is needed to maintain optimal performance.

    This smart thermostat is awesome and has an easy to read screen in any light setting. The controls for navigating the settings on the device itself takes a little bit to get used to, so I mainly used the Google Home app for all adjustments.
