    Very happy, wasn’t sure if it would work as good as higher priced smart thermostat, but very pleasantly surprised! Very aesthetically pleasing. Beautiful design. Very easy setup via app. My wife loves being able to adjust temp with any Alexa enabled device even when your away from home.

    Easy installation. Step by step instructions are provided online. The c-wire is to assist with battery life is somewhat confusing. The battery life is short lived without the c-wire which is a black wire.

    Good design, the batteries should be rechargeable and recharged internally. Otherwise, everything is fine, but perhaps the look of a clock like a screen like the Nest Thermostat is missing.

    Not as many features as the more expensive model, but it does all we need it to do and it can be controlled from your phone.

    Same as old, just with a better design. Setting up was only slightly tricky, not because of wires, but because of the app.

    I will never go back to a thermostat I can't control from an app on my phone. This small thermostat blends in with room decor and has a convenient touch screen. I took one star off because I think some of the features could be a little easier to use.

    I purchased the open box item via BB’s site. Everything but the manual was included - that is easy to obtain via google search. Anyhow. Some nuances in setup, I had to “lie” to the app to get it to recognize wiring. After that, scheduling was easy. Screen activation via presence is kind of nice also. Matter integration allows me to add to HomeKit and the interface is easy to navigate - same can be said for Google Home controls. Do yourself a favor and get the trim plate, my thermostat was attached to an early 90s vertically placed electrical j box and the Nest plate integrates well.

    Really good on controlling temps, stabilizes the house very well, differently than my previous analogic one.

    I found this to be very useful I set it and forget it I don’t have to to mess with every day and noticed my bill went down due to the fact that I didn’t have to do anything else but set it at the temperature I needed at

    Great thermostat. I had the upgraded version of the nest until it broke when my son threw it across the room. Everything works as it should.

    Instructions for installation were clear, and I was able to follow even while messing up the labeling of wires. Taking the picture like it told me before installing, allowed me to find my issue after having only the heat work. The device seems to work great! The only issue is that it doesn't seem to use the air on full blast, instead slowly lowering the temp over time. My old thermostat did things differently, apparently.

    Not good, Not bad

    Not good, not bad. If you’re on the fence on the $300 Nest or this one. Go with the $300. I had the $300 nest and it gave out after about 2 years, saw this one and thought it would be ok. It was, for the most part. The user interface is not as easy as the original and there is no additional thermostat support. I use to have a thermostat sensor upstairs and at the back of my house, now I have only the thermostat on the wall. Save your time and get the original Nest
