    Gas bill in the thousands

    If you set your thermostat at 70, it will keep heating forever until you hit 80 degrees. Your gas bill will be close to $500 a month. This product is garbage and no refunds. I will have to go back to my old Honeywell.

    Battery Won't Stay Charged

    Systems that do not have a C wire attached to their current thermostat will not supply adequate power to the NEST E resulting in NEVER being able to connect to wifi again. A good suggestion is purchasing an ecobee designed to work with hvac systems that do not have a C wire. You are Welcome!

      We're sorry to hear about these issues you've experienced with your Nest losing its charge throughout the day. This is definitely unexpected behavior as the Nest should remain charged by pulling a small trickle charge from the HVAC wiring. Our live support is available 24/7 so please don't hesitate to reach out to us so we can help get this issue resolved.

    Received the Nest e thermostat for Christmas. Installed it the next day. Installation was extremely easy and the setup was the same. The unit came with an optional wall backing plate which I used as the old thermostat was larger than the round Nest so the plate covered the old mounting screw holes etc. The unit and the wall plate look really classy. Would highly recommend this thermostat.

    It has a mind of its own, changes temps by itself and when I change a temp, it tells me for how long! Right! If I could return it, I would. Wish I hadn’t thrown out the old thermostat!

      Hi Linda,

      Thank you for reaching out to us. We´re sorry to hear about the inconvenience Nest Thermostat E has caused you.

      Nest Thermostat E learns from your temperature preferences, and then creates its own schedules which may conflict with your set schedules as well as desired temperature at a given time. You can turn off the Auto-Schedule feature to stop your thermostat from creating schedules and clear the already created schedules to prevent the thermostat from kicking in on those schedules by following the steps below:
      Turn off Auto-Schedule learning using your Nest App:
      - Open the Nest app and select your Nest thermostat.
      - Select Settings Nest settings icon then Auto-Schedule.
      - Tap the switch to turn it off.
      Clear your existing schedule using your Nest Learning Thermostat:
      - On your thermostat, select Settings, then Reset and then Schedule.
      - Depending on which Nest thermostat you have, select either Reset or Clear.

      You can always reach out to us for further assistance here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/contactflow?hl=en Nest

    There are a lot of settings but missing the most important one, the temperature swing setting. The factory set temperature swing is too large for my home, 1ºF (0.5ºC). Can't believe the company doesn't add the feature the product.

    If you don’t have the C wire in your system then there is a good chance your system will start to constantly cycle on and off. Returned it.

    This is an easy product to install and easy to use. The app is easy to follow and operate. Nest is appealing to the user and blends in well with walls. It lights up when you walk by. I love it. Nest makes a wonderful product. I love it better than a standard programmable thermostat.

    Best Nest value

    Great product. I really does learn from your habits. The convenience of turning up the heat from your bed is cool, the wow factor of it doing it for you once it learns your habits is amazing. Honestly the Nest E is the best looking Nest as well, at a cheaper price.

    Best Nest Thermostat Yet!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The Thermostat E is the best iteration yet. It's more affordable, more visually pleasing (blends in more), and contains almost all of the same functions of the more costly models. The only thing it sacrifices is a high-definition screen and the ability to show you the date and time when you pass the thermostat (it still wakes and shows you the temperature). Highly recommended.
