I am happy so far.
Hello, I just want to share my 2-cents about this thermostat. I installed 2 of them. 1. This thermostat layout and appearance is similar to traditional one. This help for all age at home to adjust thermostat without learning curve. LCD screen and silver color case is elegant to me. this is the reason I choose honeywell over Ecobee. 2. Need C wire. It is clearly stated. Giving bad rating because you do not have C wire at your home is unfair. You can buy the one doesn't need C wire. 3. Smart Response Technology - this is your option to thermostat to run ahead of time to get desire temp at your set time. If you do not want this, you can turn off this feature. 4. You can adjust or set temp day by day. As far as I know , traditional one cannot do it . This help to adjust family members with different work schedule and off day. This work for me. 5. This thermostat has no feature to connect to remote sensor. My understanding , if your thermostat adjust temp to a room sensor that is colder than other, other rooms may have grilling temp. I will adjust vent louvers to adjust each room temp, no need of sensor. 6. Wifi work well as well as online registration. Installation takes only 15 to 30 minutes if you have c wire. 7. Face plate pins to connect to base are small and look fragile, carefully plug in. Reality is we only do this once. We are not removing face plate everyday to bring to work. 8. LCD brightness - you can adjust to too bright to totally dark from score 0 to 10. Is this enough for you? 9. We are human. Sometimes we forgot to adjust heat or cold, when we rash to go out, you can adjust from your phone. This is cool. 10. Homeowner has to be smart , not thermostat. Do your home work that will save your bills. 11. I know it seem biased , if I do not say any drawback about this thermostat. Online control menu, there is two choices, setting and schedule. I wish default should be schedule, not setting. We do schedule change often, setting may be once. What I want to say is I have to do one more mouse click to get to schedule . Lazy bear. I do not get any promotion price or pay for this review. I paid full price for this thermostat. My reason of this review is for future homeowners to get more information. Thanks for reading my review.
