    Works well and easy setup. Been a month of using it and good for a smart and cheaper thermostat that you just wifi connectivity and easy operation. One thing i noticed is that the thermostat would not start heating immediately when there is a drop in temp below theresold.. still learning its behavior

    Spoke to nest before I bought and they said it would work with my system. It works but on battery only. C wire issue they said wouldn’t be. I should’ve been smarter. Good quality though, touch dial works well, looks great and it’s slim.

    Pros: Simple and modern design that blends in with the wall and decor. The features are slimmed down from the Nest Learning Thermostat but I like the new temperature profiles of "Comfort" "Sleep" and "Eco". The device was also practically free after PSEG and NationalGrid rebates. Cons: I needed to run a C-wire since the thermostats only control heat in the selected rooms. Other: Not as premium as the Nest Learning Thermostat, but I still appreciate the design and display, especially considering the price.

    So far I haven’t had any issue with it . I purchased it before the summer months to try out. It’s great, you can adjust schedules for it. And have multiple people on the app. I installed it myself. Just make sure to shut off power to install. So far it’s been great.p

    I’ve previously owned the Nest Thermostat E. Unlike the E, this thermostat is managed entirely within the Google Home app, not the Nest app. I liked the Nest app (and it offered additional integration with our electric provider), but I understand the reason for the change. This thermostat looks great and has many nice features (such as showing the weather, temperature presets for easy scheduling, etc) that the E did not have.

    I purchased this second Nest for my elderly father's residence to control the temperature anywhere I am in the world. Those of you who help to keep a watchful eye on your parents know that sometimes even the most manageable devices to run in a home are difficult for them.

    The upgrade we didn't need, but the one we love!

    Love the ease of use for ours, so we bought one for my mom who is retired. She reports loving being able to adjust the temperature when the house is cold while still being in bed. We use the scheduler to make sure we wake up to a nice feeling house and the temperature puck helps make sure our newborn's room is the right temp and runs the system to keep her comfy and sleeping well. Worth every penny for an upgrade from a basic thermostat.
