  • Easy enough to install but....
Style: D. Grey - Wi-Fi Thermostat
I would have given this product a 5 star but for the life of me, why couldn't they design where you plug in the wires, 1; slightly larger so you can see the writing without a magnifying glass and 2; If you have a heat pump with emergency heat, you have to combine 2 wires into one. Why couldn't they design it like their previous models where every wire has its place. NOTE you have minimal room so a wire nut like they suggest will not work. They do give you a 3" piece of wire that I cut in half and used when combining W2& E. You will need to take like a blue spade connector and cut the head off and use that part inserting 2 wires in one end and a short wire in the other direction and crimping it all together. In my case the "E" & "W2" = single plugged into w2/E hole. As far as the programming, It is a piece of cake. Chose the days and answer the questions and its all set up. Don't worry if you don't get it right the first time around... its easy to edit it. I'm curious to see if there is any long term differences since my power bill has always been reasonable.. I was using a Honeywell before, I just changed to the wifi so I can have better control on what my system does. ... show more

  • Buy it for the smart-learning feature
Style: D. Grey - Wi-Fi Thermostat
While this thermostat may lack some of the modern "smart" features of competing products, its "smart-learning" ability can't be beat. With this feature, the thermostat learns how long it takes to heat or cool your house. It will then start the furnace or air conditioner so the house reaches the set temperature at the time you program. It really works. I installed my first Honeywell smart-learning thermostat 20 years ago. That house had passive solar and radiant floor heat. The house got toasty warm during the day. With a traditional thermostat, it would not cool off enough for the heat to come on until after midnight. However, it took several hours for the floors to heat up enough to actually warm the house. So it would still be cold when we woke up. Then the sun would come out and heat the house to a comfortable temperature before the hearing system could catch up. Basically, then, the heat ran for several hours for no reason. The Honeywell thermostats were smart enough to turn the heat on early in the evening. The floors were just warm enough when the house temperature started dropping to keep a uniform temperature. The thermostats even knew to turn the system off early, so the heating system would not overshoot and make the house too warm. I tried a Nest thermostat at another house (conventional forced air heat and A/C, no passive solar). It worked fine and it looked nice. I never really liked the way it learned my schedule, so I ended up manually programming it. The automatic home/away feature was okay but not entirely reliable. When I moved into my current house (conventional forced air hear and A/C, no passive solar), I gave the Ecobee 3 a try. It looked nice and has a nice interface. I never found the multi-room sensors that useful. The main thermostat tended to lose contact with them, perhaps because of the size of the house (aren't they supposed to be for larger houses?). They did help some rooms that don't heat or cool enough maintain a better temperature, but then other rooms get too hot or too cold. I found it better just to find a temperature at the main thermostat that keeps all of the rooms at close to a reasonable temperature. Plus my system actually ran more with the Ecobee, trying to get those outlier rooms to the set temperature. What killed the Ecobee for me is that it almost destroyed my air conditioner. It worked fine all summer and for the first month of the heating season. But then one morning this terrible rumbling started coming from my roof (where the A/C unit is mounted). The Ecobee was trying to run my air conditioner in sub-freezing weather. Although it was set to heat, it would cycle the A/C on. The A/C would shut itself off, so as not to destroy itself, then the Ecobee would cycle it back on. I spent a lot of time on the line with customer support, who eventually concluded that the unit was defective. They offered me an RMA, but I couldn't trust that it wouldn't happen again. So I went back to the Honeywell smart-learning thermostat. It took about a day for it to learn the heating times for my house. You can't set the temperature differential for cycling, but it keeps the temperature even to less than a degree without excessive cycling of the unit. For cooling, I set the thermostat to 73 F. It never moves off of 73 once it reaches that temperature. Programming is easy. You get four temperature changes per day, like a traditional programmable. That is plenty for my needs. The touchscreen and app interfaces make the programming easier than with the older thermostats. Temporary and permanent holds are easy to set - just change the temperature and make it permanent or set a time when it should revert to the schedule (although that appears to be the time the system comes back on - it does not appear to use smart-earning to hit the programmed temperature at the time the hold expires). Changing settings remotely with the app is also simple. So far, I don't miss any features from the Nest or Ecobee. The Alexa interface isn't very good, but even with the Ecobee I found it more of a gimmick than useful. I haven't tried using IFTTT for additional controls yet. The thermostat can be set to either home or business mode. The business mode has some additional programming options that would also be useful for home use. However, smart-learning is not available in business mode. I don't see why - if any developers are reading, please add smart-learning to the business mode. Make it an on/off option if necessary. The one negative is that customer support is terrible and non-existent. I installed on a Saturday and had an issue. I tried to call and got a message that said due to high call volume the call could not be answered. It then hung up on me, no chance to leave a message or anything. I went to the web site which offers live chat. There was a message that chat was down and I should call. I tried email and eventually heard back after a week, but the suggested fix was something I had already tried and described in my original email. The issue, in case you run across it, was that the thermostat would say "waiting for equipment" while the room temperature was well outside the set temperature. Eventually the A/C would turn on, run for a few minutes, then turn off and repeat the cycle. It may have been user error (I pulled it off and reinstalled), or it may have been something related to the smart-learning system doing its initial learning. But either way it resolved itself that day. ... show more

  • Needed help with wiring, but is a lovely and highly functional unit
Style: D. Grey - Wi-Fi Thermostat
Even though I had a Honeywell before, and I already have the C-wire, the instructions did not match the wires in my house. Residio tech support helped me and things went smoothly from there. Good looking unit and seems to be working very well. Note that I am not using Alexa integration so I cannot comment on that, but the WiFi capabilities/app are pretty dang great to have. Very pleased with the unit. Now to get one for upstairs..... ... show more

  • Nice Upgrade From a "Dumb" Honey to a "Smart" Honey ... But Some Cons With a Couple of Tips
Style: D. Grey - Wi-Fi Thermostat
I had a standard, basic "Dumb" Honeywell for many years and worked perfectly, although I had to manually change settings from the basic 5/2 day schedule to override them. Having Alexa, I wanted to have the ease to change it via voice as well as when I am not home, so I bought the "Smart" Honeywell. After a week, here are my pros and cons: PROS - INTERFACE: Despite what other reviewers have said, I find the interface intuitive and just fine to configure the device. - TOUCHSCREEN: I had none of the horror stories about the touchscreen, listed throughout these reviews. The interface worked surprisingly well and I never had to push anything more than once ever. - SIZE: The thermostat is surprisingly small, compared to my "Dumb" Honey, and I like it more. - TEMP: The temp has been spot on. - DOCUMENTATION: The documentation is complete and most DYI'ers will have no issue following them. - WIFI: Zero issues connecting it to my Wifi. - ALEXA: Zero issues integrating with Alexa. Voice control worked instantly after integration. - INTERFACE: One of the reasons I chose this one was because unlike pricier options, this one shows the external temp and humidity which is a great quick check without having to look anywhere else to verify. - REGISTRATION: Registering the device with the Honeywell website was easy. CONS - WIRE CONNECTORS - Having installed many thermostats, this one was easily the worst and VERY delicate to insert wires. I can see why many consumers, even experienced ones, broke the terminal connectors when attempting to insert them. There is VERY little room to work on the wall plate, and there are no screws like all the others I have ever installed. As a result, here is what I found. First, if you push the first wire in too far and forcefully, the other connectors will be "open" and won't accept the next wire. The next connector will be "loose" and never grip the second wire, and the FIRST one will fall out. I had to take a tweezer with a bent end to "reset" the first connector and then all the connectors reset and I could begin again. (I was ready to return it.) Second, on my next attempt, I realized that you insert a wire until you feel resistance and then "gently" push the wire in like .25 mm (barely nothing) until you feel the slightest click on your finger. Believe it or not, that small amount is all it takes to grip the wire securely. Start on the top of each side and work down gently until all the wires are installed. - FAN: Strangely, the "Dumb" Honey had "ON", "OFF", "AUTO" but "Smart" Honey has "ON", "AUTO", "CIRCULATING". As a result, I have to trust the thermostat to run the fan on its own and I cannot turn if off completely, short of turning off the heat or A/C. At this point, the fan seems to be following a more "intelligent" function related to the heating and does turn itself off when it sees fit. -HUMIDITY: Although the temp is spot on, I have 2 humidistats in the house that are both consistent by the humidity percentage on the "Smart" Honey seems off by 5% and varies from the other two. The thermostat has a configuration setting to adjust the default up or down by degrees you choose, but I have fiddled with this setting and have not seen a consistency in "Smart" Honey with my other two humidistats, one which is 5 feet away from "Smart" Honey. After a couple of attempts, the "Smart" Honey seems to lag on internal humidity value, while at other times, it's showing the same value. Overall, "Smart" Honey has definitely won my affections with its verbal attention to my requests and interface. As "Dumb" Honey sits on my counter, dejected, I have assured it that I am keeping it as a backup just in case this new Honey goes bonkers, breaks or increases my utility bills. ... show more
