Amazon Smart t-stat honest review
I’m a big Nest fan had it on my old house the problem that I have with them it’s the cost, and even with gas company great rebate didn’t justify the cost especially with my new home having a total of 5 thermostats (t-stat). I was excited when I found that Amazon partner with Honeywell to get this t-stat created as Honeywell has been creating t-stat for years which make me feel better when making the purchase.—COST—Now let go over the details for cost it’s good and I got two of them which at the end of the day will be free due to the electric company rebate for a smart t-stat. I didn’t get a C- adapter and I will explain later (INSTALL session) why I purchase a 24-volt transformer for my first-floor unit.—INSTALL—Love the package it reminds me of the NEST when it first starts came with everything that you needed the only additional tools, I need was a harmer, and drill but this is normal for these installations.Now the biggest question that everyone has is the C (common) wire. This is where you need to do your research regardless of what company you go with when upgrading to a smart thermostat, due your homework on what you need. For me I have a spill unit (boiler & A/C) first for my second-floor unit it was super easy I had an extra wire and I use it for Common the t-stat startup and finish within 30 min. Now for my first floor I utilize a 24-volt transformer because I didn’t have spare cables and I didn’t want to run a new cable which drove me to make the purchase again do your homework before and see what option best works for your use case.I connected the transformer to the C wire and the other end to Rc and that works like a champ. This is critical if you have a split unit since Honeywell power their t-stat via Rc only when you have two RED Wire (R (heater) and Rc(cooling)) and the blue tab (internal jumper is down position. If you only have one RED Wire you are fine just keep the blue tab up and your t-stat will turn on without any problems. I did reach out to Honeywell and explain to them they need to explain this on their site and white papers that when you have split units’ power for the t-stat will come from Rc and not from R this is critical because my house previous owner installed a switch to keep the A/C unit down through the winter to avoid accident turning on the unit which is great idea. Please keep in mind this is NOT an Amazon problem that is Honeywell they did acknowledge their mistake and agree to update their site and documentation.Running my transformer cable and installing the unit took me about 60 minutes because I wanted to look perfect with the transformer cable going through the wall this make the installation look cleaner.—-SETUP—-Once all wire were connected the setup of the t-stat was simply and when I say simple it was super didn’t have input the WiFi password or anything else since it automatic joined my account that was amazing and simply just like setting a fire table that was a great experience. Amazon did an amazing job doing this some users this my not be as good, but I look automation the less click I must do the less chances of mistake A+—LOOK—The t-stat looks great after the final install the wall panel (included but optional for install) made it easier for me since I didn’t have to paint (if you had a different color paint I would recommend adjusting before completing the install but that is just me)—Interface (GUI)—-For me the GUI is great for some it my but I’m one of those people that like to have one application on my phone or tablet rather than 2 and this is where Amazon did another amazing job. Please keep in mind that Google who purchase NEST is doing the same thing I see the NEST application going away in the future all new NEST is configure from Google Home and they also did a great job The GUI it’s simple and allows you to setup multiple schedules and copy them to different days or week. Huge plus on my book because for the NEST I had to do manually per day I can setup one day and copy to another. You can setup away and home schedule or utilize your current Amazon device to tell the t-stat that you are home or away. Another item that I love from the Amazon you can setup MAX cooling or heating this allows for mistake not to happen and getting your house too hot or cool really go option to have and you can set filter replacements without your assistance (optional) for me this is great no more remembering air filter as they will show up at my footsteps.Energy saving incentives can also be done via the application. The dashboard its great too it tells you how much energy you utilize each day and where you can save.Now the only downside for that I experience is only scheduling session on Android because it forces close my Alexa application all the time, I don’t have this problem with anything else on the application just the scheduling session. This option works perfect on my wife new iPhone and iPad pro and new Android phone. My old Android is the one with this problem, but I experience this kind of thing on and off since it’s an older device.——-Final judgment —-The device is good option for a smart t-stat and would recommend for anyone some of the problems that were reported it was on day one which is expected with any new launch overall I see this t-stat giving Google (NEST) and others a run for their money as now you have a great option for smart t-stat and you don’t require to break your budget to acquire one. In addition, love the one application for everything as previously mentioned all big companies are doing this model to stop the install of some many other applications. In a scale from 0 -10 this t-stat gets a 9 please note that the NEST 3rd gen got a 9 from me. Hope this helps everyone make the correct decision and I will update this review in a few weeks to report back.

REQUIRES A “C” WIRE if you are upgrading from a Nest thermostat Great price point!
1000% REQUIRES A “C” WIRE if you are upgrading from a Nest or other thermostat that did not need one.Straight forward installation.A socket labeled “G” is above the “C” to plug in the continuous 24Volt power so be careful that you do not confuse them because plugging the 24Volt wire into the “G” socket will not make the thermostat work; it won’t harm it but it won’t work until you corrected.~Yes, I committed this faux pas and no, the thermostat did not work until I fixed this after taking a closer look, when I thought that my idea of a 50-50% shot on two labeled “C” sockets did not make sense design-wise as I do not believe there is a good reason to daisy chain continuous power on the “C”.This thermostat will blend into a white wall and is quite unobtrusive even if your wall isn’t white.A large covering base plate is included if you like the look or have a lot of sins to cover up.It felt very solid on the wall and the setup, via the Alexa app was very clear and straight forward.Display is on the low powered side.Getting the socket out of the thermostat is a bit tough, but you can do it with a small bladed screw driver, or the tool that they provide.Integrates to AlexaNeeds Alexa app to install itIt works and provides smart and remote programming.Price point is 30% that of the Nest newer generation thermostats. Sub $80 USD vs $250+ USD

Good Value, Works Well but Not Perfect
The Amazon Smart Thermostat is a solid choice for anyone looking to upgrade to a smart home setup without spending a fortune. 🌡️ Installation was straightforward thanks to the included C‑wire power adapter, and the app integration makes it easy to control the temperature from anywhere.It responds quickly to adjustments, and the scheduling features help save energy. The design is sleek and minimal, which looks nice on the wall.The only downside is that it doesn’t have as many advanced features as some higher‑end smart thermostats (like learning your habits automatically), but for the price, it does the job very well. Overall, a reliable thermostat that’s worth considering if you want smart functionality at a budget‑friendly cost.
