    I returned this item. Once I found out that you couldn't adjust the temperature range more than +/- 1 degree from the set temperature. For example, if I set the thermostat at 75 degrees on cool, it would turn on at 76 degrees and turn off at 74 degrees. That puts a lot of strain on the unit by constantly turning on and off.

    Ok - but I like my older nest wifi thermostats much better. The new model is much more difficult to control. Using the app in enough of a pain, but forget trying to set it manually. I just want to set it and be able to change the settings. You have to set schedules with this one and its more work than I’d like to be bothered with. Bring back the old model!

    Hard to use. Have to skim around the sides and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Does not work with other nests and app is hard to connect to. I have a learning nest also programmed and connected to my heating system and the two do not work together.

    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

    I had to purchase this as my previous nest thermostat quit working the coldest day of the year. The one that failed kept showing the temperature going up and wouldn't read the correct temperature. This new one had a bad mount plate (not sure of the correct name) luckily I was able to the previously failed thermostats plate. Also when troubleshooting the failed thermostat I reached out to Google Nest support and they tried to blame my wifi signal for rising mis read temperatures even after I disconnected the wifi from the thermostat. I understand that a failing wifi chip could overheat a device but dont blame the wifi signal that isnt connected to said device for it. They even recomened I replace my router before replacing the thermostat. Bottom line is be cautious with this thermostat the failed one lasted about 3 years. It costs more than some smart thermostats. But like most electronics these days, QA and support seem to be lacking.
