Love this thermostat
We bought this thermostat because we moved into a two-story house and I wanted to be able to control the temperature from the upstairs bedroom. Our thermostat controller is located downstairs. This works perfectly. While I am upstairs, I can control the temperature using my smart phone and it is so easy to use. Installation was not difficult. This is a quality product, I love the look of it, it’s sleek and modern and It is well-made with a good price point, and I highly recommend it.

The Best Thermostat!
Easy to install and Ecobee customer support was wonderful with how I needed to wire it. They provided on the phone support and walked me through the entire installation even testing the system. The Essential does the same as the others basically but does not include the sensor nor air quality monitor. It was replacing a basic non programable Honeywell (cheap) that did have a c wire. The compatibility of the wiring was a little different than this one but customer support walked me through the changes. The temperature control is so easy to control from the wall or the app on your smart phone. Wifi is needed but stays connected all the time with no issues. I will purchase a 2nd one. We have had these before in another home and loved them. I misplaced my 2 sensors so not able to control certain rooms just yet but the past experience they work perfectly.

Great Upgrade – Easy Setup & Smart Features
Installed this Ecobee after replacing a faulty control board in my Carrier WeatherMaker 8000 furnace, and it works flawlessly. Setup was quick and intuitive using the app.You’ll need a **C wire** or Ecobee’s included PEK kit—easy to confirm with a quick look at your wiring. The thermostat looks great, the touchscreen is clear, and the app is simple to use.Supports **Time-of-Use (TOU)** plans, remote control, and room sensors for better comfort control. Accurate, reliable, and well worth the upgrade.**Highly recommended.**

App Not as Good at Nest
I bought this thermostat to replace my Nest that Google removed remote support on. I did not want another Nest for Google to collect data from. This would be my 2nd choice and I found the usage to be also second best. This thermostat is in my weekend lake house. Since I am often away I need to manage the temperature remotely. I found the app to manage the away status hard to find. I have to go 4 clicks to get to the setting. I was used to it being on the home page. I have also found that the sensor for automatically changing to away does not work. For the positives it was very easy to install and worked well with my system. The touch screen is also easier to see the temperature.

On a scale of 1 to 10…..11.
I bought this to replace a two year-old model from the other smart thermostat company that the manufacturer decided would no longer be supported. That meant the most important thing that I purchased it for, to be able to monitor and control my HVAC when I was away from my home, would be virtually useless.This new ecobee unit was less expensive than that one was, and blows it away technologically and aesthetically. It integrates better with Alexa , and is dramatically easier and more intuitive to adjust on the unit itself. The iOS app is much slicker as well. The ecobee unit displays the humidity on the face of the unit, and the app has some really nice historical reports that are easy to get to and very easy to decipher.I am an ex-Air Force avionics tech, 35 year commercially rated pilot/flight instructor, and 15 year statewide telecom supervisor retiree. It ain’t easy to impress me with tech, this unit checks all the boxes.

Nice Thermostat Great Support!
I installed this thermostat and had trouble getting it to power on even though I had the correct wires and 24VAC power from the furnace. I called Ecobee and talked to Jenna. She was friendly and very sharp. We walked through a bunch of testing and wiring and found the issue. She got it working and helped me set it up. Impressed with Ecobee’s support. I will buy from them again!

Highly Recommend ! Convenient & Works Very Well
I am so pleased with this thermostat purchase! I can adjust the temperature from the actual thermostat or from my iPhone! Even when I’m away from home.I’ve had this for about a month.It’s affordable and so convenient!! It was an easy install (by my son) and it is working VERY well. GREAT GIFT FOR ANYONE! Especially the elderly who may have physical difficulty getting up often to change the temp.

Nice product, somewhat tricky install
Nice looking product, easy to start up and adjust. There was a hiccup with the install. The mounting plate only has screw holes at the top and bottom, not the sides. The problem with this is the wire inside your wall is typically vertical (down to the floor or up to the ceiling), so unless you get creative, it would be very easy to drill into that wire. They should consider putting holes on the sides of the mounting plate as well so you have a choice.
