  • Lady Friendly DIY Lady Friendly DIY
Size: 0.91 inches x 3.62 inches x 3.62 inches Style: Smart Thermostat Essential
This thermostat was surprisingly easy to install. I did have to patch a couple of small holes left behind by my old thermostat because I chose not to buy the optional wall cover. If I had used the cover plate, the installation would have been even quicker. If you're a woman who enjoys tackling simple home improvement projects yourself, I'd rate this as a very easy Saturday morning DIY. The app walked me through the setup step by step, the built in level is brilliant, and I had everything up and running much faster than I expected. It looks clean on the wall, works great, and I'm really happy with the upgrade. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. ... show more

  • The Best Thermostat!
Size: 0.91 inches x 3.62 inches x 3.62 inches Style: Smart Thermostat Essential
Easy to install and Ecobee customer support was wonderful with how I needed to wire it. They provided on the phone support and walked me through the entire installation even testing the system. The Essential does the same as the others basically but does not include the sensor nor air quality monitor. It was replacing a basic non programable Honeywell (cheap) that did have a c wire. The compatibility of the wiring was a little different than this one but customer support walked me through the changes. The temperature control is so easy to control from the wall or the app on your smart phone. Wifi is needed but stays connected all the time with no issues. I will purchase a 2nd one. We have had these before in another home and loved them. I misplaced my 2 sensors so not able to control certain rooms just yet but the past experience they work perfectly. ... show more

  • I think Ecobee is one of the best thermostats available.
Size: 0.91 inches x 3.62 inches x 3.62 inches Style: Smart Thermostat Essential
I have been using the ecobee smart thermostats for maybe 8 years now. I find them to be very reliable and I really like the optional extra remote sensor that you can place in different rooms. Using them seem to get an more average temperature from around your house instead of just on the thermostat itself. Anyway, I have installed them in a few friends house and they are very handy when you are away from home and can adjust them with your smartphone. This particular one, I ordered for my friends winter home so that they can monitor and control the thermostat remotely throughout the year when they are away. I like the fact that it integrates nicely with Amazon Echo and you are able to control the thermostat via voice. Which is nice when you are a tad bit warm or cold and you want to adjust the thermostat a without getting out of bed in the middle of night. I use Amazon Echo to ask what the temperature on the thermostat is or what the thermostat is set to. This is definitely worth upgrading your home with a smart thermostat. I have had other smart thermostats but none of them have lasted as long as my Ecobee's. ... show more

  • Nice features but questionable quality, reliability and warranty
Size: 0.91 inches x 3.62 inches x 3.62 inches Style: Smart Thermostat Essential
Ordered two ecobee essentials as my house has 2 separate heat pumps. Initially all was working fine, but after only 3 months one of the units failed catastrophically which could have resulted in damage to the heat pump itself. Short story is that the output relays (which send signals to the heat pump when to operate) in the ecobee itself went haywire whereby they continuously pulsed off and on (the heat pump contactor was dangerously chattering). Thankfully this resulted in the heat pump control board fuse blowing and cutting power to the ecobee, saving potential damage to the heat pump. I only figured out that it was the ecobee creating the issue after I swapped out the ecobee with my other one, which solved the issue. I then called Ecobee support and was told nothing they could do nothing in terms of offering a solution or replacing the unit (solution offered: buy another one from Amazon with overnight delivery) as the unit was past the 30 day (!) warranty. They had no interest in connecting me to technical support or a support manager - which I requested multiple times. The fact that my 92 year old mother in law lives in the house and we are in South Carolina where it was 90 degrees also did not seem to sway them towards any interest in helping. Bottom line - carefully monitor your ecobees, or switch them out for another brand (which I am doing). ... show more

  • Nice product, somewhat tricky install
Size: 0.91 inches x 3.62 inches x 3.62 inches Style: Smart Thermostat Essential
Nice looking product, easy to start up and adjust. There was a hiccup with the install. The mounting plate only has screw holes at the top and bottom, not the sides. The problem with this is the wire inside your wall is typically vertical (down to the floor or up to the ceiling), so unless you get creative, it would be very easy to drill into that wire. They should consider putting holes on the sides of the mounting plate as well so you have a choice. ... show more

  • Excellent price/performance ratio
Size: 0.91 inches x 3.62 inches x 3.62 inches Style: Smart Thermostat Essential
So much nicer when something just works. After fighting with a more name brand unit for three days, I gave up trying to get it to connect to its internet 'cloud'. As a retired field engineer for major mainframe computer manufacturers, I have the skill, tools, and instruments to troubleshoot virtually any electronic device. I also have a range extender from the same maker which performs well. So I was fairly infuriated that attempts to get their thermostat working was a donkey ride through Hades. Bottom line: back it went, and in came the ecobee. What a difference. Installed perfectly out of the box, their app gui is very well written, and there are enough adjustments to occupy your winter indoor time for as long as you want. All this from what they bill as their "Essential" model. If you, like me, don't need or want the bread maker to start playing recorded versions of your streaming videos in 4K whenever you automatically open your garage door by playing a secret MP3 while pulling into your drive, and just want a quality thermostat whose schedule and activity can be easily and reliably set, you should seriously consider this device. ... show more
