    I’ve been super impressed with these. I got two of them and they are easy to setup and eligible for a rebate with my utility companies so it was almost free!

    I love it. It is great to ask Goggle to play music, ask the weather, etc. It was a gift from my daughter and I really am enjoying it. It's fun.

    Seems to work okay, but I have a heat pump so it doesn’t remain consistent and it changes between settings so i Have to manually update it otherwise it gets super hot in my house. It’s easy to use but I don’t like the pre set settings that I am unable to delete. You can only access it with the app as well and not through the nest itself.

      Hi Lindsey, thanks for sharing your experience with us. We're sorry to hear that you're having some difficulty with the inconsistent settings issue of your Nest Thermostat.

      If you want to remove a temperature, simply follow the steps below:
      - While viewing your Nest thermostat, tap the day of the week that has the temperature you would like to remove.
      - Select the temperature you want to remove.
      - Tap Delete. The temperature will be removed from the schedule for that day.

      If removing the temperature schedule doesn't fix the issue, you may try resetting your Nest thermostat. This will help clear out some or all of your personal settings, such as the temperature schedule that may be having some issue. To reset, go to Settings and then select Factory Reset . Your thermostat will ask you to confirm your choice. Once you’ve confirmed, your thermostat will take a few moments to reset.

      We understand that long time Nest users, like you, enjoy viewing their Nest devices from the Nest app. However, we wanted to make the Google Home app as the one place where you can control all your favorite Nest and other smart home devices with the Google Assistant.

      If you need further help, you're more than welcome to contact our support team and we'd be happy to assist you further using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hi Light, thanks for sharing your feedback here. We can see that your experience with your Nest Thermostat has been less than ideal when it comes to learning what temperature you want. We'd recommend that you create a temperature schedule for your Thermostat to follow. You can also use Auto-Schedule where your Nest Thermostat can learn about your home and your habits to automatically create a personalized schedule. If you need further assistance with Auto-Schedule or have additional questions, you can contact us anytime on our Google Help page here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Very fussy to set up, system ramps up slowly. While I appreciate the simplicity, it seems to not agree with my HVAC equipment. Ecobee seems to have an easier time negotiating with my equipment than this thermostat

    Thermostats look nice, but setup was very poor

    I purchased two Nest Thermostats for my home. I would have appreciated the plastic trim kit in the box, as the thermostats are so small they barely cover up the hole / old paint color. I was able to proceed after I purchased the extra trim kits (more $$) for just the plastic part (there was another metal bracket included but that got tossed). The software setup on the first one was okay, but the 2nd installation just would not work and would not find the 2nd thermostat. I retried the same process a few times to get stuck in the same place - a huge time waster. It took some time of on-line research and forums to see that a large # of other people also had this problem, and Google just had not fixed it for several months. I finally had to uninstall the original thermostat (after it was upgraded) and then was able to reinstall both of them successfully. I was disappointed at how difficult it was to find help and support on this issue, when it was already known. Do better Google.

    Incredible, it has a mind of its own. The nest thermostat picks up on your schedule and preferences, and automatically adjusts the temperature.
