Great product, one small glitch that was quickly corrected
By Millersdad on Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2017
I think the iterations of the original Nest thermostat say "LOOK AT ME!, I'm cool" (and it is) It has a very distinctive look. I'm more of a minimalist person and like things that don't draw a lot of attention to themselves.The frosted bezel lens, ring and face plate work perfectly for me.I don't feel the plastic ring does look cheap. It looks subtle. I would have liked to have done away with the mounting plate, however to due to the way the previous thermostat was mounted and the control wires were run through the wall, it was a necessity. It also reduces smudges on the wall from adjusting things at the thermostat, if not using the app.Check to make sure the E provides the connectivity and functions you need. Connectivity was not an issue for our system and the fact it didn't show the outside weather was not a deterrent in our case. (Outside temp IS shown on the app.) I like the frosted face that becomes active when you approach the thermostat. It automatically adjusts its brightness depending on the amount of ambient light.The one glitch we experienced was I couldn't figure out why the thermostat wasn't adjusting the temps per the schedule set up. My location was inputed properly. I chatted with the amazing folks at Nest and the next morning the times were right. I believe the issue was their data base had us in Central time (which we are about a 10 minute drive from) and Eastern. Now everything works like a charm.The old thermostat had contacts that clicked every time it started the system, the Nest E is completely silent. May not seem like a big point, but for a very light sleeper, it makes a difference. It linked up nicely with our other Nest products (Nest Protect) and I like the fact that should smoke or carbon monoxide be detected, the E will proactively control the HVAC system so the situation is not exacerbated. Smart.Couldn't be more pleased with the Nest E.The app is intuitive and easy to set up schedules, or let it figure out the optimum schedule for you.

AVOID ANY NEST PRODUCT AT ALL COST
By Lauren on Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2019
UPDATE: My original review was glowing, but i retract it all. DO NOT BUY NEST PRODUCTS. After a mere 6 months this POS has stopped working. We had an HVAC person come out and check everything out to find out our ac system is fine, it’s the thermostat that’s the problem. I’ve been BATTLING google for WEEKS about the warranty replacement. I’ve been lead in circles, asked the same gd questions over and over again. I’ve explained so many times that we have already had a company check everything and tell us it’s the thermostat, but they keep trying to make us “reboot” and “rewire” things. I’ve sent photos to prove that it won’t even turn on. We even plugged in our old school Honeywell and the ac magically fixed itself (it didn’t, it was always working, the nest is just crap). Now the thermostat won’t even turn on at all- even if we charge it with a wall charger. They had a “senior” person reach out to me who has done absolutely nothing. The only way you can contact them rn is Facebook or email, and frankly good luck with that because they’re totally useless. I will never buy another google product again. The customer support has ZERO desire to help you, despite the fact that their product is faulty.******* ******* ******* ******* ******* ******* *******This was one of the best amazon purchases I’ve made! Super easy to install, super easy to use, and it’s fun connecting with Alexa so you can tell her to adjust the temp! It learns your preferences and makes a schedule based on them. In the winter I crank it down during the day and turn the heat up at night but I don’t even have to touch it anymore since Nest does it for me. You can easily adjust the temp from your phone too if you’re away from home. The nest also knows if you’re home or not and can go into “eco” mode if you prefer, which can save energy. Lastly, I love the simple design! Looks better on our wall than the previous thermostat! Def recommend!
