Google Nest Thermostat E - Smart Thermostat + Google Nest Temperature Sensor Bundle - White

Love it works great!! I’m able to have the sensor in a separate room then the thermostat.

This is my second Nest of this model, and I have found that it works perfectly. It is cheaper than the standard Nest thermostat, but it works just as well if you just need something to control with your phone. Installation is a breeze, and it functions very well.Tip: Before attaching the thermostat in the wall, charge it using a power outlet and micro-usb cord for about 20-30 minutes. Sometimes, it needs a "jump-start", and the voltage from the thermostat wiring isn't sufficient for that.

This is the almost annoying thermostat ever. It will be going back. I just wanted a thermostat that I could set the temperature to what I want. I needed one in my new house because the thermostat was downstairs and it would get like an inferno upstairs if you set the temp higher than 66. But it depended on multiple factors so I wanted to be able to control it. This thermostat does what it wants. I can’t get it to change it to my settings without it overriding it. On the setup there is no option for just manual temperature setting. You have to have a schedule. That auto schedule, even if turned off will override your settings. I deleted all the schedule after turning it off didn’t work and then it just repopulated it with my settings. The gas cost keeps going up. So the repopulated schedule kept turning the heat on so the upstairs would get to 80. I then brought all the temps down hoping it wouldn’t turn it on and I could turn it on when we wanted to. But then I woke up to a freezing house because it overrode what I set it to. I’ve been battling it for days and tried everything others suggested. Others on the community of the app also complained that they couldn’t set the thing and leave it without it overriding it. So I guess I will be returning it after I pay another cost to have my handyman uninstall it. Find something else. Also, it requires a c wire? If you know what that is. We didn’t have it so the battery wouldn’t charge. I had to pull it off and charge it with one of my plugs I use to charge a power pack I have. Then it would let me see the key to setup the app. Very annoying little robot that get his own way.

Functionality:Works well and bluetooth

I did a lot of research and realized the Nest E did everything that the 3rd generation did except learn habits.. which I didn’t care for. We use the remote room sensor all night for sleeping and it keeps the temp right at 70 degrees in our room. Also, no need to get out of bed to adjust temp or even turn off when you leave the house.. you can make all temp and on/off adjustments from your phone app!! Should have gotten this years ago.

I have a very basic gas floor furnace in a small Cape Cod house we live in in the Summer. I got this so I can monitor the heat over the winter when we are not here. It is working fine so far, but I needed an electrician to install it. I recommend it if you are tech savvy and it has many great features, such as the ability to heat different rooms at different temperatures and at different times of the day (none of these are relevant to me since I have one floor furnace in the center of the house) but I really recommend professional installation to get it to work properly. I have not tried connecting it to Alexa yet. I recommend the item if you have help in getting it installed.

Such a help for us to move the thermostat for the old heating system away from the line of heat from the new mini-splits. Love the history and all the information that it feeds to the app (on an ipad - nice for the size of the graphs). Moving the actual thermostat would have been a bear - but the install of this in its place was easy for a handy person. Thanks to our son for telling us about it! (one month in - working great).

Nest default is 1 degree and won't let user change temperature swing cycle! Screen reading will disappear and you will have to keep moving in order for the Main screen to appeared.T9 won't let you change temperature swing cycle neither, it defaults to .5 degree; heat was on 5 minute and off 5 minutes when the outside was 52 degrees, it just too short of cycle, caused the system runs all the time and waste the energy!ecobee is the way to go as it allows lots of user settings. I like to set heat for 1 degree cycle; AC for .5-degree cycle.None of these 3 brands allow Fan schedule for longer than an hour! All of them let user to set Fan on minutes for every hour, but what if user like to run the fan 10 min in every 2 hours?So I suggest it should have a Fan Advance option: Begin Time, End Time, Minute ON, Minute OFF; this way I set it on throughout the entire summer, from 10pm to 7am; Fan only On 20 minutes in every 180 minutes Off.In addition, in Sleep period, allow user to set Fan Custom option, which I'll set it to run Fan only 10 minutes in an Hour, and it runs this schedule on in Sleep mode. In the Hot summer, this setting will very helpful, it will make upstairs cooler without using much AC. The reason is downstairs at least 3 degree cooler than upstairs even with AC on. So by making Fan running from time to time, it will circulating the air between 2 floors; and also getting the outside fresh (cooler) air into the system (my house has a fresh air vent). This way the upstairs will lower at least 1 to 2 degrees with just Fan on once awhile throughout the night, which achieves the comfort level without using much AC and save energy.
