Not as great as other products
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a tough review as I know this is the cheap product with nest. This does not connect to the nest app that has more feature than the google app does. You must install with google app which is very limited in functionality. The overall setup was a little difficult even with directed guidance in app. Felt it always disconnected from google app and could not be recognized. Had to keep going through the process. The cheapness is also found in the overall interface of thermostat. Not easy navigating with finger on side. You pay for what you get here. It does work but not necessarily the way you would want it to. Save the frustration and get better nest device if you are a google smart home user.

Posted .Hi there, we appreciate your feedback and thanks for letting us know your issues. We’re sorry to learn of your difficult experience with setup and functionality of your Nest Thermostat and the Google Home app.
Using the Google Home app provides you with a lot of benefits including access to Google's trusted security platform and access to other Google tools. It provides you with seamless integration with your other Google devices. And if you find it hard to navigate the thermostat from the unit itself, you can control the thermostat with the Home app even when you’re not at home so you can change the target temperature, select a mode, use temperature presets, change thermostat settings and a lot more. You may check this link that includes video tutorial for a brief overview of Home app control: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9249866
Also, if you will need to reinstall your Nest Thermostat in the future, the Google Home app will help you select all the right options for you and your home. You can use this help article as a reference: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/10125150
Lastly, It’s important to make sure that the thermostat is getting enough power from your system wires as the connectivity issue of your thermostat is related to power issues. If your HVAC unit can’t supply enough power, the thermostat battery will start draining, and this results in your thermostat limiting its features such as Wi-Fi connection to preserve the battery. The resolution may be to install a common (C) wire in your system to deliver constant power to the thermostat. The power resolution will also help fix the connectivity issue. We recommend contacting a Nest Pro technician to check your system first and install a common (C) wire if needed.
We care about your experience and your input helps us better understand our customers' preferences and needs. And if you have any concerns about your Nest Thermostat, don’t hesitate to visit us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

After a shaky beginning a good result
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed to use an installation expert to install as it needed a little extra wiring. If you are somewhat adept at wiring that would probably not be necessary. I also had difficulty getting it to work on my iPhone. I don't know what the problem was (iPhone or app) but it did resolve itself and works great now. I do recommend this thermostat.

Modern and functional.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall easy to install and set up application. This is not a touchscreen, and it can be tricky to get the hang of navigating the seamless scroll bar on the side to toggle to different zones. Looks really nice in the room.

Posted .Hi there, Jaxs11. We appreciate your feedback on the Nest Thermostat.
We made a few focused tradeoffs to bring the same reliable features on the new Nest Thermostat to this more affordable price point. Other than the capacitive touch controls, you can also easily control and manage your Nest Thermostat using the Home app. You can learn more about it here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9249866

Great thermostat!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thermostat is fantastic and has helped us save on our crazy high summer energy bills. We have it programmed to turn off whenever we leave the house so we're not wasting electricity cooling an empty home in the dead of Texas summer, and it kicks back on automatically when it detects we're home. They're also quite sleek in appearance.

Awesome Thermostat
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to install. My folks are in their 70s and are not too keen of anything that’s touch screen. However, they’re able to learn and use this thermostat. It really does help when you can cool down the house from your phone in a remote location.
