    Simple to use and set up other than the fact it won't set up to my wifi even though I know I have entered the right password.

    Love having a schedule and using my phone and Google nest to control the thermostat. Wish the schedules were a little easier to change in Google home for days when my schedule is different like holidays or other days off.

    Excellent thermostat. I can look at how long it takes to heat up my house, how often, and I can even set up schedules and many other features. If you have an old, manual thermostat... Upgrade. It's worth it! I installed it myself, as well.

    Not as fully functional as the higher cost model, but a nice option if you are seeking remote access via phone.

    The price is reasonable. I recommend looking at your utility provider as many provide rebates for installing a smart thermostat. I paid $100 in store, but received a $75 rebate for the installation. Easy setup.

      Hi there Quamber, we appreciate your feedback and we're glad to hear that you find Nest Thermostat as a good product overall. We do apologize for any issue you may be having with the Google Home app, and when updating the temperature manually using the capacitive touch sensor control.

      Uninstalling and reinstalling the Google Home app may be helpful with the issue. You may also try installing the Google Home app on another Android or iOS mobile or tablet device to isolate the issue further and to see if it might be related to your current mobile device. We highly suggest contacting our support team if the issue is persistent. We'd be happy to assist you by simply reaching out to us using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
