    Simple way to let you control your Nest thermostat from the temperature in any room. Easy setup. Tiny puck doesn't look out of place in your room either.

    Our HVAC can get really hot or cold in bedrooms with the doors closed as the thermostats are in big open rooms that fluctuate quite a bit with sun, etc. These sensors have been super helpful to balance things out and you are able to control the thermostat using the sensor temps for various times a day. You can only control and set these in the Nest app, not the Home app. Which google keeps trying to move to but seems they haven’t moved these over yet. Additionally it would be nice to pick specific hours rather than “morning, afternoon, evening” type selections.

      Hi there, DJSD. Thanks for sharing your experience with the Nest Temperature Sensors. It's great to hear that they have been helpful in balancing the temperatures in your bedrooms, especially when the thermostats are located in large open rooms that experience fluctuations due to sun exposure and other factors. The ability to control the thermostat using sensor temperatures at different times of day is certainly a useful feature. It allows for more precise temperature management and can help create a more comfortable environment in specific areas of your home. We understand your feedback regarding the limitations in the Nest app, particularly the inability to control the sensors through the Home app and the desire for more specific scheduling options. We're continuously working on integrating features across different platforms and enhancing scheduling options, we appreciate your patience and understanding. Rest assured, your feedback has been noted. If you have more questions and other concerns, please feel free to reach out to our dedicated team of specialists on the Google Help Center here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Great Nest Thermostat Add-On

    I purchased two of these and love how they enhance the effectiveness of my Nest Thermostat. I placed one in the bedroom and one in the family room, while my thermostat is in a hallway. Now the thermostat can regulate the temperature for the bedroom at night and the family room during the day. They were very easy to connect and have been working flawlessly for a couple of months now. I highly recommend this item.

    This device is awesome. My thermostat is in a hallway. So the temperature runs 5-7 degrees higher than in my living room so it always felt too cold in the house. I can run the furnace off the sensor and I can keep the house warm without turning the thermostat up to a ridiculous temp. Easy set up. Had it going in just a couple of minutes.

    I needed the temperature sensor because the thermostat is at one end of the house and the living area is at the other end. It is easy to select which sensor is primary, but in my case it took a couple of days to find the medium location so that one end of the house was not TOO hot and the other end barely comfortable. Since then everything has worked as advertised.

    If you have already a nest thermostat that is compatible setup is as easy as it gets. Just follow the instructions in the app and you will have it setup in just a couple of minutes. The only downside is that it had no humidity sensor and you can't redirect on an hour by hour schedule, just a few prefixed time zones. If your daily schedule falls out of those you are sorry it of luck. This can get fixed with a software update, but until then 1 star deduction. Overall it does what it advertises.

    Great product, works well and very easy to set-up. From your nest product, you simply take a picture of the product 'square code' and it set-it up automatically. I bought several to monitor the temperature in different areas of my house. Then, in your Nest system, you can select (morning, afternoon, night) which sensor should be use to set the HVAC temperature. Excellent !

    I have 4 of these sensors in my house and they’re pretty awesome. I will admit that I bought them basically to see how efficient my system was and am surprised at the accuracy. You can set your nest to follow any one of them — if you’re upstairs, you can tell it. If you’re in one room it will follow that. I think it’s a decent add on for the nest thermos. I do wish it monitored humidity.

    These are handle little temperature sensors, they have changed how we use our Nest. Since they do not have an occupancy component to them you are expected to rely on scheduling, however you cannot schedule by day, only preset buckets of time that go across every day. So if you have a home office and want to mark that you are in it two days a week from certain times, no dice. The app very easily shows the temperatures at each sensor and which one is active. I would like to see more control over scheduling.

    Easy to connect to the Nest and view temperatures in different parts of the house. I'm going to order another set so I can monitor temps in the attic and basement and in another bedroom. I just wished it included humidity information too.

    I recently had my HVAC upgraded and with it, they provided the 3rd Gen Nest thermostat. However my upstairs runs a little warmer than downstairs. I picked this up so I can how it based the temperature on an upstairs room. This works well. Was easy to set up and has worked seamlessly so far. Would definitely recommend it.

    I like the idea of knowing what the temperature is in other rooms, and if I wanted, have the heat or cool set based on that room. I like how all the Nest products link together and provide safety options when done so. My only complaint is the price of Nest products. It has taken me a long time to supply my house with the few items I have due to the pricing. I finally have all the items I feel are a need for a safe and well run/linked house, but I can forget about the wants. Too expensive.

    If you want to add a sensor to be able to tell what temperature it is in other rooms of your house this is it. It works well and allows you to allow the Nest to use that sensor to adjust the temperature. It is just a little costly if you buy enough for each room. I would wait until it is on sale or you have Best buy buck to burn.

    This is a very cool product that links up to your existing nest thermostat. you can set it in different rooms to monitor the temperatures, and tell the thermostat to heat/cool to any specific device. Loved it so much, this is the third one i bought.

    My thermostat is on the first floor, and I wanted to be able to manage the temperature on my second floor where the bedrooms are. This does exactly what it is supposed to do, I placed it in the bedroom, and now I can run my AC/Heat based off of the temperature on my second floor. A little expensive but its worth it.

    I have three of these temperature sensors working with my new Nest Thermostat. I moved them all over the house with no reception problems. The Mount easily on a wall, and two of them I just placed in an out of the way spot. Haven’t had any problems like disconnecting or inaccuracy. Very small and not very noticeable.

    This is a must have for a large home especially a multi level home. You can add more than one and be able to see the temperature in different rooms. Helps to be able to cool of a area of the home that might be warmer than the rest. Install was quick and simple. You can attach to the wall or just leave it on a shelf. It’s tiny so you won’t even know it’s there.
