    Cant accurately tell indoor temperature

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

    Thermostat could not accurately tell indoor temperature and would fluctuate +/- 5 degrees in 5 minutes. This would cause my emergency heat to cycle on when it was not needd. House temperature was 72 and the thermostat would read 72. A few seconds later the thermostat would read 68 and would cycle on emergency heat. After a few more seconds the indoor temp would read 73 (which was higher that the set point). I put my original thermostat back in and had no problems the indoor temperature was maintained and my heat pump system worked as expected.

    Backend Servers are spotty at best

    Goes for long periods of time where it can't seem to connect to servers for remote functionality. Internet tests are fine and the router can communicate with the thermostat fine so it's clearly on the backend. Honeywell knows this is an issue but gives generic responses. I quick look at the reviews on the internet says this isn't isolated. If you want remote access get a different brand. Should have returned it when i had the chance.

    Defective thermometers inside some thermostats

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

    I have bought two RTH9585s in the last couple of days. The thermometer on the first one drifted up to 78 degrees although the actual room temperature remained around 69. Then I bought another and swapped the thermostat units. On the second one, the thermometer temperature drifted down to 58 while the room remained around 69. I can only conclude that the thermometers in these thermostats are unreliable. I'm going to return both and buy something else. I'm very disappointed. Search the internet for this thermostat and you'll find that others have had bad thermometers in their units as well.

    DO NOT BUY! Unreal, I have paid TWO separate electricians to try and install this piece of garbage. Neither could get it to control the heat. I am actually so happy that it did not work because once it was on my wall I knew how cheap and horrible it was. The touch screen is a joke requiring one to press down as hard as they can to get it to react. Oh yes for some reason it comes with preset holds and schedule's that we were unable to clear. I honestly thought this would be a good choice rather than the NEST. Get a non smart thermostat, these things are a joke!

    Honeywell used to make great products. This thermostat now runs on an iPhone app that has no functionality. The last Honeywell I had was on another app and worked great. It’s like they have let some cheap manufacturers market under Honeywell name. Would avoid it unless your certain will not be using total comfort control app

    The smart thermostat is actually not smart , its just that it is connected to wifi. Looks like at the same price google nest provides much better capability. Not happy with the purchase and I was not aware that this is so basic

    Product specs wrong

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

    The specs show that the unit is 7.25 inches wide, Height is 9 inches, and Product Depth 3 inches. In reality, it is approximately 4.5 inches wide, and 3.5 inches high. I rated it one star to hopefully get someone's attention to correct the specs, but the unit is truly 5 stars. Had Geek squad install it, took 1/2 hour. Works GREAT!
