Thermostat constantly is shutting down and restarting. It's often non-responsive to touch. I've already sent one back and replaced it. The replacement does the same thing.
It is nice to be able to monitor the temperature inside my vacation house when I'm not there and even better to be able to change the setting before I arrive. I don't have a need to use the programmable features.
Nothing special here. It is easy to use and set up, however. If there were: 1.) Some kind of indicator on this thermostat showing when my unit was automatically using supplemental/emergency heat, and 2.) a mode to use supplemental heat at my discretion, then I would have assigned it another star. But I have been unable to locate any such feature.
I absolutely love being able to operate this via my phone! I don’t have to get out of my warm bed anymore and tip through a cold house to turn up the heat!
The T6 Honeywell was recommended to me by my HVAC tech when I said I wanted a nest. He told me this worked well with a heat pump and the nest was a bit harder to switch from the heat pump to the regular furnace.
So far, no issues. I have it set to warm/cool the place when someone is there (via tracking our phones) and to save energy when we are away. It also has a separate sleep setting so it can be cooler overnight while we sleep. East setup, easy to operate, and overall a great product.
Directions included with the unit are very vague. Once I went online it became a lot clearer on how to set up and program (I thought). I was still having problems with getting the unit to work properly on my phone. Another few days and I again went back online and finally figured out how I can program and use the online app. I would suggest Honeywell give better step by step direction in writing and online. With all this said I am happy with this unit now that I fully understand it.
