LOVE this thermostat. I had no C wire and I was able to connect through the furnace in the attic myself. I LOVE the lock feature with a child in the house that loves to punch buttons. I honestly believe that my HVAC works BETTER since I installed the thermostat. Before I had to have it on 69 at night to cool the house down and now I only have to go down to 74 to get the same temperature. THANKS WYZE
Requires a C-Wire. This is WAY less temperamental than the nest thermostats I've used before, so I'd say it's a mega win. It's excellent for the price. Build quality makes sense, but the dial could be a bit easier to press. I didn't know it was a button for a bit because of how stiff it was.
While these thermostats have great features, I have found the temperature to be off and have to use the adjustments to get it to read properly. It is always cold in the house. Switching to competitor.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there! If you have a heat only system and no C-wire you should have Rc, G, and W1 wiring instead. We would recommend taking a look at this article for further information regarding this:
