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!
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.
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.
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.
Is it silly to love a home thermostat? Easy setup, simple to operate either from the onscreen dashboard or from the phone app. Love the geo-fence feature!
I love my wifi thermostat, only down side is that out of the box does not show the temperature outside, but other then that, I love the simplicity of the unit and ease of use.
