There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I just installed this today, so this isn't so much based on performance as much as the installation process. I had read the reviews prior to buying this and I could tell I might be in for a hard time. I can tell you that for the few hours it's been running, it works excellent and I like everything about it. But you shouldn't trust a review based on so little time.
So let's say, assuming there are no future problems, for the $$, I thinks it's remarkable. Also, the app set up is so smooth and easy you'll have everything you need ready in minutes.
The biggest concern you'll have with set up is whether or not you have the "C" wire. If you do not, there is a relatively simple solution. You'll have to get into your furnace though so it's going to take a bit more of your time. And your patience. Can't stress that enough. Honeywell provides you with an extra wire so I assume there are many people who will run into this problem if you have an older house/condo. The thermostat itself doesn't require the extra wire, but your furnace will. I'm not the most handiest of men, but I figured it out pretty quickly. I could take a few minutes explaining what goes where and how,
but the best thing to do is to go onto YouTube and type in "smart thermostat no C wire". There are a few people who will walk you through it, but even Honeywell themselves have a video for this (that's what I used). The narrator talks a bit slow (remember, patience) but I found it to be real
simple as she explained it.
The other problem I had was with the WiFi connection. I kept getting an error that it wasn't connecting. I don't have a sure-fire solution to this but I had to reset the thermostat two times and on the third try, it made the connection. This lasted about a 1/2 hour trying to figure out why it wasn't connecting. Still don't know exactly why it was so difficult, but in the end with persistence (and luck?) it's now working.
If I do have problems with the performance I will come back here to let people know. Because for everything it does (geofencing!), and the ease of use of the app, it seems like a no-brainer to get it for the price. And if the performance is good for a while, I'm going to change the rating to 5 stars.
The positives:
- Very easy to install. All three connected to my router with none of the issues described in many other reviews.
- No problem using them with both Siri/Apple Home and Alexa/Echo.
- Intuitive user interface
- The iPhone app is generally reliable and intuitive (but not entirely...)
Negatives:
- There is only one set of four time periods per day that cover both heating and cooling. Because of variable electricity rates where the rate change happens at different times by season, we use different times for heating and cooling settings. This thermostat does not support that. I'm hoping for a software upgrade that allows the addition of more time periods.
- There are occasional dropouts of connectivity with WiFi. So far they've re-connected on their own reasonably quickly.
- The server the iPhone app connects to is occasionally unavailable and the app fails. This happens more frequently than seems reasonable.
- The iPhone app does not refresh very quickly and there seems to be no way to manually refresh (by pulling down and releasing for instance). It's hard to tell it hasn't refreshed because it seems to behave normally. The only way I've found to force it to refresh is to kill and restart the app.
- Occasionally I make a change on the app and it seems to accept it, but then it reverses to the original setting. There is no indication that a commanded change has or has not been accepted by the device.
I'm pleased enough that I have ordered another to replaced my other thermostat.
Hook up is a breeze but I had to resolve the C-Wire issue. I have an older system, had the C-Wire in the wall, but not connected. Had to have the HVAC guys out to connect it at the 2 units.
Problems I had. Had trouble getting the app program to work. When setting up I used a custom label: Living Room and Kitchen. The App would not complete the install and no error.
Fix was a simple name: LRoom. Setup was complete.
Next problem was the Thermostat would constantly drop off the WiFi.
The fix was changing my security settings in my wireless router. Security was set as WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] changed it to WPA2-PSK [AES] problem is solved. I have no more technical issues.
Took one star off because with Alexa, you can't control the fan, and resume the program schedule. You can control the fan with Alexa if you use a 3rd party android app, IFTTT, but still not resume the program schedule.
The Honeywell app will control everything.
The thermostat keeps the temp constant, I would personally like an option to widen the the temp range a degree or two. Currently using heat, I have it set to 67 and the temp will not drop to 66 before it cycles. Mine seems to have a range of cycle less than a degree.

Yo instale el termostato desde la calefacción y solo necesite comprar cable eléctrico que tenía 6 cables de colores dentro. Muy muy fácil de instalar.
La programación también es muy fácil. Si eres de México hay que poner en país a EUA para que te permita configurarlo pero al terminar la configuración, cambiar el país a México y ya te permite poner tu dirección para que veas la temperatura exterior.
Excelente compra.
