    You can only use it with a common wire so if you use it in an older condo, it won’t be awesome.

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

    Nothingng to do with Best Buy! Here, it's all Google. A concept that was Great, Simple and Straightforward has been turned into a non usable, non installable (without major add ons and hassles), themostat. I actually put it aside after installing and seeing that it wasn't working correctly. Re-installed my only partially working Older NEST, that can't be programmed anymore because Google needed to make more money and they've disinfranchised it!

    This has been one of the best purchases for my home! Instructions are really simple and straightforward. Took me about 15 minutes total time. Having the ability to control my thermostat at any given moment is what the 21st century is all about!

    I like the older version better. The one where the entire outside housing spun. I'm not a fan of the touch sensor on the side. It still works and the whole reason to get it is for wifi connectivity anyways.
