I use the website to program it and the quality of the screen is soso compared to a honeywell

Price


The price difference between a typical thermostat that could combine the systems and this one was minor

Packaging/appearance


Since i didnt have a c wire from the furnace i had been using an auxiliary transformer to power the filtrete


I watched some videos on youtube and read some forums and they say power can be tapped off the 24vac from inside the furnace

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    On the other hand i was dissapointed to see no fastening screws for the tstat nor the interface module


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    And the instructions are not really easy to understand on wiring the accesssories


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was deterred from nest as id heard of issues with heat pumps i have a new construction and they said if i installed a nest the builder would void my hvac warranty


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Apparently their pricing is horrible outside of amazon and ecobee prefers to have authorized hvac companies sell them to customers


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So an hvac company would end up charging you 400 and no one will pay that when they see nest at home depot for 250

    I also noticed the firmware says its from 2011 even though i updated everything


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Ecobee does not have the same deep pockets as nestgoogle and honeywell


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They can send your electricity bill through the roof if not managed properly thats the issue nest had with a bug in their software early this year before a firmware update
