Customer Ratings & Reviews

I just found out these were available and had to have one today! I love how small the device is and it's 2 year battery life. We've struggled with winter temps that always makes us too hot or too cold due to the thermostat reading temperatures in our open living room. Very simple setup as well- just unscrew the back plate and take a QR pic or id# to register it. Install the back, then you're good to go. It can be left on a counter or comes with a screw to mount it as desired. I just think there needs to be a software upgrade that would allow a time frame of when to use the remote sensor and main thermostat. We only use it for when we sleep at night for a more accurate reading. I highly recommend this product to anyone with a Nest that has a oddly cold or hot room as this could solve your issue.

We purchased this to go along with our Nest Thermostat on our main floor, but have a bedroom upstairs that naturally gets hot in the summers. I was hoping this Nest Sensor could help remedy that and so far so good! PROS: - Very small sleek design and blends in with your home - Installation is simple, either set it on a table or use the screw they provided to hang it on a wall - Setup was very easy! Just use the Nest App and it will take less than 5 minutes - With the Nest App, you can schedule your Nest to pull the temperature from a different sensor during different times of the day. So for us, we will only be using the Sensor at night but of course we can manually change the sensor it pulls from whenever we want. - It works exactly as we need it to! Connects to the Nest Thermostat all day, I can use the Thermostat or App to see the different Temps and change what sensor the system pulls from, and most importantly it helps us know that yes our upstairs is hotter than the rest of our house and it cools the house to our bedrooms temperature instead of the downstairs temperature. CONS: - The sensor scheduling aspect only works on predetermined times decided by Nest aka Morning, Midday, Evening, and Night. So “Night” is from 9pm-7am. I wish you could set specific times to better fit your needs, but that could be done with a simple App update down the road. - I wish it came with a sticker mount for the wall instead of just the screw you have to drill in, but its light enough where I could just buy my own sticker mount and it would work just fine. BOTTOM LINE: - If you have a Nest Thermostat and think that some rooms/floors in your house are too Hot/Cold compared to others than you are probably right! The Nest Sensor is a very easy, yet necessary tool to helping your house be heated/cooled properly - you will not regret it!

I recently purchased the Google Nest Temperature Sensor to use alongside my Google Nest Thermostat, and I have to say, I am extremely happy with my purchase! This small device has made a big difference in the way that I control the temperature in my home. The Nest Temperature Sensor is incredibly easy to set up and sync with my Nest Thermostat, and once it's connected, it works seamlessly to ensure that the temperature in every room of my home is just right. I love that I can place the sensor in any room that I want to monitor and adjust the temperature accordingly. The device is also very sleek and unobtrusive, so it blends in seamlessly with my home decor. And with the ability to control the temperature from anywhere using the Nest app, I can always ensure that my home is at the perfect temperature no matter where I am. Overall, I would highly recommend the Google Nest Temperature Sensor to anyone looking to take their home temperature control to the next level. It's an excellent addition to the Nest ecosystem and has made a noticeable difference in the comfort level of my home. 5 stars all the way!

I recently added the Google Nest Temperature Sensor to my smart home setup, and I am thrilled with the results! This small device has significantly improved the comfort of my home throughout the day. The installation was easy – place it in the room you want to monitor, and it syncs seamlessly with your Nest Thermostat. The sensor accurately reads the temperature in a specific area, allowing my thermostat to adjust the heating and cooling to match our preferences perfectly. We use it as a temperature sensor near my son's sleeping crib, which works well. The Google Nest Temperature Sensor is a fantastic addition to any smart home, improving overall efficiency and comfort. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to fine-tune their home climate control. Five stars all the way!

Easy setup, good battery life, and most importantly it just works. I have radiators and have always had difficulty getting my daughters' room at night to not be too hot or cold because the thermostat is downstairs in the dining room. Now, with a sensor in their room, it's perfect every night. The fact that I can easily select which sensor to use in the Nest app makes it that much better. I'm tempted to put a sensor in every room that doesn't have one already.

I've been a fan of NEST thermostats for many years and recently added the simple NEST Temperature Sensor to my home's HVAC control system. I noticed that the upper floor of my home never seemed to reach the set point temperature of the NEST Thermostat, thus added the temperature sensor to my master bedroom. Wow - so easy and a great add-on. It basically helps me balance out the control temp in the house by averaging the temps it sees at the main thermostat downstairs and the add-on temperature sensor upstairs. My wife is really impressed too. Gives her the comfort knowing that the tstat will keep cooling system going in the summer time a little longer than before, until the set point is reached upstairs as well. This is a no-brainer to add the NEST Temperature Sensor(s) to any home; especially if you have a multi-floor home or areas that are traditionally much cooler or hotter than others. I definitely recommend this little, affordable temperature to any NEST controlled home. Great Product NEST engineers !

If you have only one thermostat in your multi-story home, you know about air stratification whereby the lower level will be freezing cold while the upper level under the roof gets unseemly warm. I live in a three-story townhouse so once I got my Nest learning thermostat, ordering one of these was a no-brainer. Now I wish I had bought the three-pack. I would only use the other two for information, not to run the HVAC but it would be nice to know what the inside temperatures of those other rooms are sometimes. Setup couldn't have been easier. The thermostat found the sensor right away. I don't understand their cumbersome, clunky time schedule for switching which sensor should be active at a time, either the remote one or the one inside the main thermostat itself. You'd think that would be a simple software issue so that one could program exact cutoff times for each sensor to be active. Fortunately, their odd schedule pairs up nicely with mine so I don't mind terribly. This was a very nice addition to my new thermostat and I'm absolutely thrilled with my purchase.

Wow! Nest just keeps impressing me! I loved my Nest 3rd Generation Thermostat and other products already but we have a couple rooms that are used frequently and are hard to keep the correct temp. This product does the trick. It was installed in a very short time and I can control them (I purchased three for my home and may get one or two more) with my iPhone or iPad. It could’ be simpler to operate. And you have the option to put them up on the wall with the provided screws OR you can simply place the cute little Nest on a shelf or a dresser wherever you like. It’s a little guy only about the size if a hockey puck approximately. It fits in the palm of your hand with room to spare. It’s amazing! My home office is COMFORTABLE to work in all day. I can save money and lower the temp in THAT room. You can set timers for each device if you wish. Trust me. This is a game changer in our lives!

The sensors connected to the main unit within seconds, the readings are accurate using 2 other temperature gauges, and the app makes it all very easy to monitor the data room by room. Just a bit pricey for proprietary wireless temperature sensors. They should be 3 for $60 not $100.

Like many homes, the HVAC in my house could be more consistent. In my case, I also don't want some spaces to get air because I don't use them, but that's where the thermostats are installed. This temperature sensor helps me solve this problem by allowing me to control the temperature based on the area that's actually used. The installation was effortless and only took a few minutes. I was pleasantly surprised to see how far these work. I have only had it for a few months, so I can't say how long the battery life will last. They are small enough that you can easily keep them out of sight. Overall, it's a good product and my only gripe is the $39.99 price point.

The Nest is such a great thermostat, and this temp sensor is the perfect addition to our house. As it gets into the colder months, I notice our back bedroom doesn't stay quite as warm as the rest of the house. This little sensor hangs on the wall behind our bedroom door and ensures that the heater stays on until the bedroom is heated properly. It was easy to set up and you can even tell the thermostat when to pay attention to it and when to ignore it if necessary. So right now, for example, we only have it set to tell the thermostat the temperature in the bedroom after 9pm, so we are nice and warm at night. Would definitely recommend for an older house that doesn't heat consistently.

We were not aware of the existence of the Nest Temperature Sensors until a recent purchase of 2 Nest 3rd Gen Learning Smart Thermostats. The Sensors came as a free gift with the thermostats as a promotion. They were super easy to set up and actually add a lot a value to the comfort of your home in that they actually allow you to set your thermostat based on the temperature of a specific room. This is helpful because the temperature can vary a few degrees between rooms based on many factors including the layout of your home, insulation, sun facing rooms, etc. These are also great for nurseries or an elderly parent’s room whose comfort needs may differ from other members of the house hold. This product is a nice addition to expand the capabilities of the Nest 3rd Gen Learning Smart Thermostat.

I have a very basic gas floor furnace in a small Cape Cod house we live in in the Summer. I got this so I can monitor the heat over the winter when we are not here. It is working fine so far, but I needed an electrician to install it. I recommend it if you are tech savvy and it has many great features, such as the ability to heat different rooms at different temperatures and at different times of the day (none of these are relevant to me since I have one floor furnace in the center of the house) but I really recommend professional installation to get it to work properly. I have not tried connecting it to Alexa yet. I recommend the item if you have help in getting it installed.

If you have a room that faces the sun or one that doesn’t you know that no matter how many adjustments you make to the HVAC baffles you still will have rooms with less than ideal temperatures. These help you know what the actual temp is in that space and then you can target it for heating or cooling. It would be great if the came in other colors but they are small enough to hide fairly well. I don’t recommend setting them on granite or other items such as some metals that also are affected by environmental factors as they will heat and cool themselves and that can affect the reading. We also use these to monitor temps if we set it in eco mode while we are away. We can adjust from the app before we get home if needed.

Easy to set up and works as intended, allowing us to prioritize certain rooms. You cannot set exact times in the schedule though as you would normally on the thermostat but you can set morning, afternoon, evening, etc.

Now that we’re stuck at home all day, I needed better control of the temperature based on what rooms and level of the house my family is in throughout the day. We have a 2 story house with a dual zone system with Nests on each floor. With the three pack, upstairs I have the temp set for my office during the day, the thermostat in the evening and my toddler’s room at night. Downstairs is living room thermostat during the day and master bedroom at night. Everyone has been much more comfortable! As with most Nest products, setup was super easy. The only thing I wish they’d add is finer grain control of the timing for the sensors in the app. As it is, you’re stuck with preset periods of time that are good but not exactly aligned with our schedule.

Was having some issues with my nest being in a hallway and not near where my family spends most evenings, so I was very happy to add these sensor points throughout the house. Set up was easy and they’re small enough to not be noticeable. I was initially still really frustrated with the thermostat not kicking in appropriately, even with the sensors (it’s summer in Phoenix), but then I figured out how to change the thermostat from eco to normal and everything now works perfectly! Very happy!

This was easy to set up and add to my Nest. Just docking it one star because it's a little bit more expensive than I would like, but it's nice to have to keep an eye on temps in a different part of the house than where the main thermostat is located.

I used to be an Ecobee user so I am very familiar with using a sensor. Easy to setup and use. I like being able to tell Nest to turn on depending on if my side of the house is cooler or warmer where the thermostat is. Highly recommend

I purchased two nest thermostats and really liked the idea of remote sensors. The sensors are electronic thermometers that can be placed at remote locations to both tell the nest the temperature at sites removed from the thermostat and to control the heating and cooling, such that the target temperature needs to be found at the remote location. In our house, the thermostats are located in the hallways and they always seem to over heat and over cool the bedrooms. We can use the sensors in the bedrooms as the target control point for the heating and cooling of the house. They were easy to install and to link to the thermostats. I purchased a sensor with the two thermostats (and then 3 more sensors at a later date). They have been working great. I would purchase again.
