T5 7-Day Programmable Thermostat with Touchscreen Display

While setting up the settings before any install found the display reading inaccurate. Compared with the reading on the digital Hunter that it is replacing. Replacing the Hunter due to faulty A/C circuit in the circuit board. Thought I would try this one due to the Hunter model is no longer made. Used the same calibrated digital thermometer in the picture I use on HAVAC systems to check readings at the Hunter and both readings match. Read reviews on this Honeywell model and found that tech support advised another customer that they will read 4 degrees off which is unsatisfactory with any product. Also found another customer with temp readings inaccurate and using a separate thermometer to control temperature settings. Also found that the cycle settings for the A/C is 10 minutes on and 10 minutes off with different setting for the max number off times it will cycle with in an hour only. Do not need it cycling on/off every 10 minutes like another customer issue has. Put product back in the box to send back and looking for another thermostat likely a newer version of a Hunter due do reviews found so far on this site for other models. My A/C is still working just can not lock the Hunter thermostat on to the wall plate causing a faulty connection.

Our 16 year-old thermostat finally gave out. We tried installing a wifi thermostat but it got super complicated to install since we didn't have a c-wire. It required opening the furnace and moving wires around on a computer board. Still couldn't get it to work. The Honeywell T5 was a great alternative and was way cheaper and I installed it in less than 20 minutes. We have a 5 wire thermostat and there was a spot for each and every wire in the T5. Setup was pretty easy - follow the prompts and select your furnace type. Setting the temperature for heat and AC by time of day and day of week took a few steps but it was easy to do. I never had to go to the dark basement to fiddle with the furnace except to turn it off for the installation. I recommend this thermostat for anyone who doesn't need wifi capability and for those who want an easy to install thermostat.

Unit looks modern , nice and what us more important- temp or humidity level is correct ( I have Accurite indoor/outdoor thermometer) Instalation was super easy and started working right away.

I love my new Honeywell programmable thermostat. I hate it if it is too hot at night, so I am always turning the heat down. Very often I forget to do it and an hour or so later I am getting up to go down and do it. This does everything for me. It is wonderful!!!

Thermostat was easy to install. I called tech. support because the DH wire on my old unit didn't have a corresponding location on this unit. Tech support was pleasant but suggested that the DH wire was not supported. I connected the remaining wires for my heat pump configuration and so far appears to function as expected.

works fine...no regrets or complaints. old thermostat was 15+ years old and gave up the ghost. this one works just the same, just a little more compact and easier to program. My heat pump is 26 yrs old but this thermostat matched up perfect with it. used for 6 weeks and not one problem.

Excellent product! Works great!

Easy to read, use and install. Works well! Have a wall heater!

Awful. Way too difficult to program. I've been programming thermostats for 30+ years, starting with analog ones with mercury capsules. Too much jargon, too many choices, too much poor wording, too many menus. And on top of that it's smaller than most so you have to fill holes leftover from the old one. And also it's difficult to remove from the base and to hook up the wires. Taking it back. The directions tell you to call 1-800-whatever if you're having trouble. So you call and the robo-answer says we're too busy, over one hour wait, please call later. Fuhgettaboutit, I quit.
