Good value for price but missing functionality

Great thermostat and I'm glad I purchased this over the standard Nest, however there are two key pieces if functionality missing. First, the Google Home app can't view or control the separate sensors. Secondly, the thermostat can only control based on one thermostat or sensor instead of the average temp of all thermostats/sensors.
We purchased this as an upgrade to our current thermostat. My wife works for Google, and she saw this on the website. It took literally 5 minutes to install and configure this device. Very easy. Not technical at all! We love it so much we are going to do the rest of the house about 10 more.
This little addition to the home has made the Best a more livable atmosphere. The beauty and simplistic nature of the thermostat makes heating and cooling a breeze. The integration and interface make this a must for any home.
Very easy to install, does what it's supposed to do, looks a little cheap compared to the original model. Setting it up with multiple people in the house and having to use two different apps to do that was a major pain. But love it now that it's all setup
Aside from the great look of the Nest Thermostat E, the app made installation so simple. We live in an older home and NOTHING goes smoothly when trying to install something new. Well, this did. The guide on the app was great, and the product just works. No complicated set up
Excellent product. Take a few minutes and read manual and watch video so you understand how the NTE works. App is easy to install on your cell phone and Synchronized easily. Overall an excellent product. Also, the one time I called service department for help, person helping me was very knowledgeable, courteous, professional. and stayed on the phone with me until the issue was resolved.
Installation was tricky because we have a heat pump and auxillary fuel system. Could not obtain custom wiring diagram that was promised by web site so finally had to call hvac tech.
My Google Nest E was very easy to install. I'm an electrician and can readily say that if someone who is not follows the instructions line by line, they should have no problem.
Setup via the nest app was fairly easy, but be sure you register yourself as a user in the Nest App before installation else you may have a few extra steps during software setup for your thermostat.
