    This is the most fun I’ve had since covid hit....working my new nest thermostat. We are older and the thermostat is on the second floor and it’s so easy to regulate the heat and cold from my phone!

    This is a great choice if you want a modern thermostat, but don't want to spend too much. It has all the features that a regular thermostat needs.

    I love nest and this is a great product however I have 2 complaints. PROS 1- Great Price 2 - Easily installation in the Google Home App. CONS 1- It does not come with Nest screwdriver. If I did not have the one that came with my first nest I would be very frustrated. 2- I would prefer to have it in the Nest App as opposed to the Google Home App. The set up is only for Google Home for what I see so I can only control it via Google Home.

    Really easy to use and set up. I tired using the Nest app, but it looks like this directs to the Google Home app. Didn't realize it kind of looks like a mirror when not displaying information - very nice!

    I love the look of the new Thermostat. The touch pad control is also very responsive. However, I wish the trim plate would come with the unit.

    Still trying to figure out how this thing should be working as opposed to how it IS working?? New comments are always appearing on the unit. For instance, why is it imposing PEAK HOURS on me?? I don't thing this unit is a "learning thermostat"; it's completly baffling!! I'm marking 'YES' I would recommend; but, I'm not really sure I would!!

      Hi JoeM, thanks for bringing this issue to our attention. We apologize for any inconvenience you may be having with the energy recommendations of your Nest Thermostat.

      Your Nest Thermostat comes with the Savings Finder feature that offers suggestions in the Home app to adjust Eco temperatures, Sleep temperatures, and temperature schedules for your Google Nest Thermostat. And the recommendations you get may be provided by this feature. These temperature adjustments are subtle, so you should still feel comfortable while your thermostat helps save more energy over time.

      Also, you may be getting recommendations from the Nest Renew feature. Nest Renew can use your Nest thermostat to prioritize cooling or heating when it’s less expensive, if you have an electric cooling, electric heating, or solar panels, and time-of-use (TOU) peak pricing from your energy provider. If you are enrolled in a utility's TOU plan, Nest Renew will use your TOU rate to prioritize heating or cooling when it's less expensive.

      If the information provided still seems to be confusing, you're more than welcome to contact our support team. We'll gladly answer any questions you may be having and even walk you through some of the awesome features for your Nest Thermostat. Please visit this link to reach out to our support team: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Purchased for the cabin with mini boiler and radiant heaters. After spending much time trying to make the wiring work; finally searched on internet to find out unit not compatible with multiple setups including mine. I already had a Nest gen 3 on another zone and agent stated this would would work. Returned and replaced with more expensive gen 3. Definitely recommend gen 3 as prefer screen and rotary/push control of gen 3 over this unit.

    It works great. I have this one and the next gen at two different properties. It is definitely worth it to buy the next gen.

    Easy install, sleek design and energy savings...what more do you need. Just ensure your system is compatible. Install was a breeze if you know how to use a screwdriver and follow directions.
