  • Disappointing. Older models are far superior.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I agree completely with KungFuPanda. I have 3 Nest thermostats that are the older versions and everything about this one is significantly cheaper in comparison. I’ve even used the “E” version which was much better than this one. There is no turning dial, the screen is really just a small square and you can see the borders in the display (see photo), and the google home app is far inferior to the Nest app. Even when you adjust the temperature the new sound it makes is irritating. I really hope this isn’t the path that Nest thermostats are heading and that this iteration is just a fluke. I had intended to switch over my mom’s old school thermostats with this one because of a rebate offered by our electric company, but she’s in her 60’s and the lack of a dial would make adjusting the temperature much too difficult. As far as the C wire debate: in my experience the C wire is not needed when your thermostat controls both heating and cooling. In some cases when the thermostat controls ONLY heating or ONLY cooling then a C wire is needed.

    so slick, so modern and unobtrusive, besides it matches perfectly with my wall color. I love being able to monitor my temperature with my phone, anytime, anywhere. Best Buy was easy to deal with, buy from and the delivery was flawless. Love to have good options to buying from amazon!

    The nest thermostat is overall a great product! I do get annoyed where it tries to follow your schedule too much. So say for example if I am home on a day where I’m supposed to be at work and I adjust the temp manually, it would eventually go back to the temper it’s at when I’m not home. Probably an easy fix if I go I yo the app but it is annoying at times. Other then that it’s a great buy easy to set up and easy to use.

  • Check with your HVAC before purchasing

    Ended up having to return it as it was not compatible with my HVAC system even though Google told me it was based off my wiring. HVAC company came out after I tried to set it upyself and they confirmed with me that it is not compatible. Recommend asking a HVAC pro before purchasing it but this was a solid thermostat

      Hi AndrewSr, thanks for sending us your feedback about your experience with Nest Thermostat, and it’s unfortunate to learn that you came across a compatibility issue.

The online Compatibility Checker has full instructions to check if your heating and cooling systems are compatible with Nest thermostats. You can also quickly tell if you have one of these systems without having to use the Compatibility Checker or to look at your thermostat’s wiring here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9246656

      We’ll share your feedback with the appropriate team to work on improving the accuracy of our help sites, and to improve how we handle customer concerns with efficiency.

    It does the main things I was looking for in my thermostat. I can schedule it, control it from my phone, and is compatible with google home/mini. Bonus points for it looking awesome, having smooth controls and being very very user friendly. Side note: both my parents have the google learning thermostat. As far as I can tell, the actual learning is the only feature this device doesn’t have. I am glad I went with this model and saved the money.
