I bought this as a replacement for a cheaper 2009 Honeywell . Off the bat the mounting holes matched so that was awesome. Easy install as to the wiring , I noticed there's a jumper in the RC spot just like my old one so that was another plus . One thing though , when you put batteries in for the first time you wanna set up the date with year and time right off the bat , so read the instructions otherwise you will have to look for the advanced instructions to be able to get into the programming and then you can set the date and year and choose other options/parameters which are illustrated in the instructions. Overall I'm happy with it , the only thing that I don't like is that you can't tell like my old thermostat would show a lil flame 🔥 or a snowflake ❄️ when the system is actually running and this one does not , but not a big deal. So yeah for $50 it has 7 day dual temp settings , lit background - nice 👍

As described. Works well. Quick installation. Make sure you have the right wires in your wall.

I got this unit to replace a 29-year old Honeywell Chronotherm 3 that controls our 2-stage forced air gas furnace. I installed it this evening. I got this unit specifically because it says it works with a 2 stage furnace. Apparently not all thermostats do. It also allows for 7-day programming, which I'm used to from the Chronotherm 3. (Vs. programming all weekdays alike and Sat and Sun alike.) I took a photo of the wiring in the old unit before taking it off the wall. (This thermostat comes with tags to put on the wires to help remember where they go in the new unit, but a photo was less cumbersome and my wires coming out of the wall were pretty short so I don't think there was room for the tags anyway.) The main delay in wiring up the new unit was that I had to paint the wall where the old unit was because it was bigger than this new one. I put a clothes pin on the wires to keep them from falling back inside the wall when I was painting. Once the paint was dry, wiring this baby up was pretty straightforward. I found it helpful to use some needle nose pliers to help get the wires into the holes. You'll need a smaller-than-usual flathead screw driver to set the screws. The designations for the wires on the new unit match up with the ones from the old unit, so that was easy. Programming the unit was fairly easy, although not perfectly simple, I think. I had to press a little harder on the touch screen than I had expected, but it wasn't difficult. I had a little trouble getting into the Schedule screen where you enter codes for the kind of system you have (in my case a 2-stage gas furnace with no air conditioner). I bypassed that programming section to go on to scheduling, thinking I might call the customer service number for help programming the system, but I went back later, tried it again, and got it this time. Not sure what I was getting wrong earlier; possibly something about not holding one button long enough. Scheduling was pretty straightforward. There are four periods for each day and you set the time and temperature for each one. I set all the weekdays together at the same time. I set Sat and Sunday each with their own schedule. The unit is running the furnace now and it seems to be working as expected. I'd give it five stars but to me five stars suggests perfection. It seems to WORK perfectly but maybe a five star unit would've installed itself? I'm a reasonably handy guy who does residential remodeling for a paycheck, but I think anyone with patience and basic homeowner skills could install this. Our last Honeywell thermostat lasted 29 years. Our Trane furnace wasn't supposed to last this long but it keeps chugging along, even surprising the techs who service it. (Take this as encouragement to buy a Trane.) I expect this new unit will outlast the furnace but maybe it can run the next one?

I read every single review before buying this thermostat. The reviews made the smoke come out of my ears. A majority of buyers like this product. But a significant minority didn't. Among the complaints I noted: -- 1. You need to touch a button on the touchscreen to activate the back light, but this also activates whatever button you touch, whether you wanted to do that or not -- 2. Programming is indirect; you must use -- and therefore memorize, or use the manual as a reference for -- numerical codes to perform various functions. -- 3. The touchscreen is not responsive. -- 4. The touchscreen back light does not stay on for a sufficiently long period of time. -- 5. If left in default mode, the thermostat will start an hour or two early before the time programmed for a specified temperature to be reached. One thing to keep in mind is that the copious reviews of this popular product go back a good many years. In the interim, Honeywell may have upgraded the software or firmware, so that different reviewers often seem like they are talking about entirely different products. As a prelude, a note about me: I can't figure out most of the features on my non-smart cellphone. Enough said. Despite the fact that installation looks simple for do-it-yourselfers, I am of the pay-a-pro-to-do-it tribe. I was displeased to see that the old Honeywell vertically oriented manual thermostat that this new baby was replacing left unsightly marks on the wall not entirely covered by this new, horizontally oriented thermostat. If this sounds like you, be prepared. I must say that the very large number of negative reviews put me in a fearful state of mind. But this Honeywell worked exactly as described. So let me address the negative comments that caused me so much pre-purchase grief: 1. The touch of the touchscreen is my favorite feature on this thermostat. My primary experience with touchscreens is in grocery stores and bank ATMs. You have to give those touchscreen buttons a good assertive push. Not so with this Honeywell touchscreen. The merest touch sparks it to life. It's stupidly satisfying. Nothing other than the back light is activated by touching a button that activates the touch screen. You need to touch any button again to get that button to do what it is programmed to do. They are two distinct movements. 2. Numerical codes no longer exist. Programming is straightforward. It isn't intuitive in the least. You are presented with clearly labeled buttons. 3. This model thermostat has been around for several years. Perhaps its parts were upgraded without fanfare. But this is honestly the most responsive touch screen I have ever used. I actually only have to touch it, as opposed to the aggressive finger jabs ATM machines force me to use. Here, it's light-light touch-touch-done in about 5 seconds. You actually experience a ridiculous moment of pleasure that finally something works properly. 4. I'm sorry, I was too lazy to time it (I do have a life), but the touch screen light seems to stay on a good amount of time. I programmed an entire week day by day with no problem, although admittedly it wasn't in the dead of night, when some people apparently program their thermostats. Okay, I felt guilty, so I programmed the thing in pitch blackness. Well, except for the back light. No problemo. I will need to think of some totally dark situations when my thermostat needs programming so I can tax this cool feature to the limit, as we men are programmed to do. 5. If you leave this thermostat in default mode, if you specify that you want the house to be 72 degrees at 7 am, it may very well start your cooling system an hour or two earlier. From the manufacturer's perspective, this is a prime selling point of this thermostat: that it knows to start cooling your place earlier than you indicated to get the temperature to the degree that you indicated by the indicated time. This is actually not a defect. It's the single biggest feature of this device. If you don't like automation, you can turn it off. (Keep in mind that if you specify 72 degrees at 7 am, and the thermostat turns on your air conditioner at 7 am, your place may be 10 degrees hotter, which will take longer to achieve your desired temperature. If you have a good commute to work and are on a stopwatch from the moment you wake till the moment you leave, that's a factor.) If you don't know how to turn off this feature, Honeywell has very good technical support. There is no such thing as a non-ugly thermostat. This is pretty ugly too. Compared to the others, though, it's a lot less ugly. Life is a compromise.

This thermostat is perfect for my electric baseboard heating system that has a thermostat on a transformer and uses a two wire system (had an old style mercury switch thermostat in place before). Once you figure out which of the two wires go where (in my case black wire to W and white wire to R) it all worked well. A little challenging to program the installers features but once you learn you’re good to go. No C wire needed as it runs on two AA batteries. It controls the heat perfectly and is simple enough for most people to use. Just the fact that it sets the heat back at night so I’m not spending money (electric heat is expensive) while I sleep. Recommended product.

Installed this thermostat in a rental property where a smart thermostat seemed cumbersome. It was easy to setup and intuitive to use. It's not fancy, but works well.

Ive had this for a few months now. It worked originally but now does not come on at all. Very disappointed. Waste of money
