    It's probably not something most people need, but it's definitely handy if the Nest thermostat needs to operate based on the temperature of some other location in the house. The one big limiting factor is that it has to be within 50 feet of the thermostat, possibly less if there are walls.

    This sensor is great for ensuring certain rooms in the house are up to temp. This has always been an issue for people in multi room homes because the thermostat only reads the current temperature of where it is physically located. With the Nest Sensor you are able to fine tune the temperature in any room.

    Great additional sensor for Nest

    I use this additional sensor for my NEST Thermostat E to maintain a cooler temperature at night. It works perfectly. Through the NEST app I tell the thermostat to get it's "sensing" temperature from the bedroom from 9PM to 7AM. It does exactly that. Very handy to be able to adjust the temperature focused on two locations.

    If you have a larger home, and especially one with multiple thermostats, this is a must buy addition to the Nest. When synced with the nest thermostat, these will allow you to adjust temperatures based on how hot/cold it is in a specific room - great if your HVAC system pumps air into one room more than another.

    This temperature are very useful. I am able to set my Nest Thermostat based on a specific sensor and I always know the temperature on each room. My only advice would be to mark each sensor in case you ever move. Otherwise, there is no way to know which is which unless you disconnect them and check on your app.

    Put this temp sensor upstairs and it make it easy to keep track of temperature up there since it is usually a bit warmer up there. I can monitor it with the app and make adjustments as needed. Hardly ever need to once it learns the patterns. I plan on buying a few more for other rooms in the house.

    Make your nest thermostat smarter

    My bedroom always seemed strangely warmer than the rest of the first floor. With this I can tell Nest to make my bedroom comfortable at night (where we are sleeping) rather than the rest of the house. I know other thermostats include these and I wish that were the case with Nest, but at least they aren’t incredibly expensive.

    Lifesaver for keeping upstairs comfortable

    We had an issue where our Nest was in a room that got a lot of direct sunlight on the first floor and it would cause our ac/heat to shut off, making upstairs uncomfortable if we were there at night. This gadget allows you to heat to a specific room and we know are cozy upstairs regardless of the downstairs temp.

    This solved the biggest issue we had in our home with our heating and cooling. Our thermostat is in an area where there is no vent and a big glass window. This always lead to it being too hot or too cool all the time. Now I have it when we can make sure the temperature is appropriate and check on all our rooms. Love this.

    We put this Nest temperature sensor in our son's room as his room is the first room on the upstairs HVAC room and ends up cold in the summer and hot in the winter. This allows us to set his room temperature sensor as the main sensor during certain times of the day to help keep his room more comfortable. It was super easy to set up and I have had no issues with connectivity or anything. It's cheap and works well!

    This works great. Put it in the bedroom so you are not too hot or cold at night. I wish I could set the time as you are stuck with their intervals (4 to choose from). I also wish google had never bough nest. I hate their spying.

    Neat Add-On for your Nest

    My old thermostat was mounted downstairs by the front door, and that is where my Nest ended up. Unfortunately, this leads to uneven heating and cooling upstairs. I picked up this little guy, place him in the bedroom, and the Nest was able to update it's program to better balance the HVAC. Well worth the cost.

    Placed this in my upstairs bedroom that was always hotter than the rest of the house. With the Nest sensor I can set the temp for that room while I am using it. Also I can set a schedule to use this sensor at certain times of the day over the main Nest thermostat. Love this product. Need another for my office

    no more moaning one room is always cooler, you cant set the room to be a specific temperature. handy if the kitchen is always cooler than the living room. Sensors can be allocated to the following time slots Morning 7:00 - 11:00 Midday 11:00 - 16:00 Evening 16:00 - 21:00 Night 21:00 - 07:00

    This is a pretty good extra sensor to have in our house. We keep it upstairs on the bookshelf, because the reach of the sensor to the original Nest thermostat is a tad bit limiting in placement. But it accurately tells us the temperature of the other room, and lets us adjust our temp accordingly at night time.

    We have one of these in our office and master bedroom. I like having a custom temperature for one room at night. We can sleep with the door closed knowing only the bedroom is being used to gauge the temp. No more hot or cold nights.
