Have used several of these thermostats over the years replacing old ones. Have 4 zones and can control temperature and schedule no matter where I am. Excellent purchase

Works okay, missing key features
Works fine. Wish it had a battery back-up when the power goes out. Also, the 7 day programing is a hassle, wish there was a 5 day/2day option.

    Great product! I can set it and forget it, especially when I’m sleeping or out of the house. I also can get an allowance from my electric co for energy saving products. Home Depot was of course speedy in getting this to me. I ordered on line and picked it up in about 2 hours.

    It was a lot more to install than we thought, hard to program. We ended up returning it.

    Inefficient and ineffective
    You can't set this to turn on. It will kick in the hvac on its own when it calculates how long it takes to reach the temp you've set it for. Want to sleep in a chilly house and then wake up as the heater kicks in? No chance. You'll wake up in a sweat. It will randomly kick in around 3am. This product sucks!

    Hi, we are sorry to hear about this. Our thermostats have the Smart Response Technology that starts the system before so the setpoint is reached already by the scheduled time. It is possible to turn this feature off: Press and hold the Fan and Up buttons at the same time until you see a big number 1 on the left of the screen and another number on the right. Press Next until you see number 13 on the left, then press the down button to change the number on the right to 0. You should see 13 and 0, press Done to save and exit. - Maria resideo
      Works amazing but setup and changing wifi can be t
      I love this unit. It's perfect for whatever you want it for. However changing the wifi password on my router messed me up all night when it was -10 outside. I didn't know about the different functions built into the unit itself. I didn't set it up to begin with. After I learned you cannot change the password on the app, or via Bluetooth (why I don't know) and instead hold the up arrow with the fan button for a few seconds. I did this and must have accidentally changed it to a heat pump system. It obviously isn't wired for a pump so it read temp said it was calling foe heat, but nothing turned on. Then the fan would kick on and it blew cold air. Scared me bad as I can't call anyone late at night to fix it. I looked over my furnace, YouTube videos. Just one setting in the programs. Why those settings aren't available online Ido not quite understand. Would make a lot more sense. I hope this saves someone the stress last night caused me. Otherwise. Seriously fantastic unit!! Could make setup and settings easier to access though in my opinion.

        Thermostat seemed very cheaply made. Followed all the directions and it did not work. A total waste of time. Such a shame. Honeywell used to be a superior product.

        No heat pump, auto setting on this unit
        I installed this thermostat as per the instructions, only the fan would turn on. It would not turn on the heat pump at all. The instructions say to change the system type to auto, but no such setting was available on this unit. This is being returned.

        Hi JimP, It sounds like either the wiring or programming may need to be reviewed, feel free to get in touch with us for support at 800-633-3991. -Joey resideo
          Garbage
          Do not waste your money on this device. The app is horrible and has switched names a couple of times. When you can't connect it to wifi then you can't change any of the settings. I've tried to reconnect logging on by laptop vs app on phone with no luck says device belongs to another user lol I'm the only one who has purchased this device. I will not buy a honeywell product again.

              Worked perfect till it packed it in.
              Second one I bought. First one lasted 4 1/2 years. Would sometimes start the furnace and sometimes not. Bought the same one as I like the thermostat. Use caution. WIFI is a bit tricky to hook up but I got it.

                Hi, thank you for your review of the Honeywell Home Wi-Fi 7-Day Programmable Smart Thermostat. If you are not able to install the C wire adapter we recommend you to reach out to your HVAC contractor to run a wire from the system to the thermostat. - Maria resideo

                False claims of features!
                While the product itself is serviceable, it does not have automatic switching modes from heat to cooling. I only bought this model because Home Depot claims on its website that it does so. Only after installation it was clear it was Not capable of this important feature.

                Hi, thank you for your review. It is possible to enable the Auto Changeover feature so the system switches automatically between heat and cool depending on the inside and set temperatures. To turn this feature on, please press and hold the Fan and Up buttons at the same time until you see a big number 1 at the center of the screen and another number on the right. Press 'Next' until you see number 12 at the center and then use the Up button to change the number on the right to 1. You should see 12 and 1, press Done. Once you scroll through the system mode options you will see the Auto option. - Maria resideo
                  Simple to install and program. Make sure your c-wire is hooked up or easily accessible at both furnace and thermostat. Most newer furnaces have safety door and no power on when door removed so make furnace door closed after attaching c-wire so thermostat has power.
