 Awesome Product September 3, 2010
SuperDad
I have been wanting to get a programable thermostat for a long time. I am glad I finaly did. This product is awesome. Very easy to install and program. Keeps the house at the temprature I set. It has programs for all 7 days of the week and 4 different time periods. Makes it very easy to take advantage of rate changes throughout the day.
 Solution for a hectic schedule around the house. Wiring is ok. August 17, 2010
Adrian Gutierrez (Fort Wayne, IN, USA)
I've had this for over a month and so far I have nothing but praise for this controller. I replaced a 5+2 digital controller because my wife works 3 days a week outside the house. So, the house was always cooled or heated to comfort temperature even if she was at work. Once I installed this controller, the three days that neither of us are at home, we allow the house to warm up or chill down to gain some savings on power and fuel.
Two important features of this controller that make it quite nice are:
1. the temperature setting and time set on the controller is actually the time at which you want the house to be at that temp. So, if I want the house to be at 74F in the summer when my wife gets home at 4:30pm, I set the thermostat with these settings. The controller "learns" over a week's time, how long it takes for the A/C to cool down the house so it will start the A/C in time to achieve my settings. This learning process is continuous so that as the seasons change, it knows it will take shorter or longer to achieve the desired temperature.
2. The temperature resolution of the thermostat is 0.2F; this feature allows the temperature in the house to remain very constant ( I can't feel the change). I can hear the A/C unit start, run for 10 minutes perhaps and shut down. 20 minutes later, it starts again for a short time and shut down. My previous thermostat would allow the house to warm up or chill down a full degree before starting the A/C or furnace to bring it back.
If your schedule requires 7 days programming, this controller is for you, it is very easy to program and reprogram.
I saw some reviews about the wiring difficulty, my house was built in 2001 and found no issues when wiring this thermostat in, I did read the whole installation guide to ensure success though.
Good luck
Works great August 12, 2010

I have had Honeywell programmable thermostats before, and this one works as well as the others. The programming is a little slow being 7-day but it's worth it for the flexibility with your daily schedule. If you have a heat pump system as I do it's one of the best priced with 7-day programming I found.

My new Trane came with one of these, only the Trane name was stuck to it. The installation engineers removed my Hunter Programmable Thermostat and installed this. I live in Florida so AC is a necessity. On the first three days I observed that this thermostat was causing my new Heat Pump to start and stop every 5 minutes. Now I know something about motors and relays, and it is this, life expectancy of them is directly proportional to the number of times they are commanded to start and stop. Also, I know a little about airconditioning, and it is this, they become most efficient only after running at least 10 minutes. After an investigation using an instataneous thermometer (I'am and engineer by trade) I found that the Honeywell thermostat was attempting to hold the temperature to within + or - .25 degrees. Now that is rediculous. Just the air passing the thermostat when the AC starts running will cause the temperature to drop that much. Continueing my investigation, I found that, by design, none of the Honeywell thermostats give the customer control of what is called "temperature span" or "temperature differential". "Temperature span" or "temperature differential" is the temperature difference between when the ac or heat is told to turn "on" and when it is commanded to turn "Off". (My old system using the Hunter thermostat had a built in span of +/- 1.1 degree and would start and stop no more than 10 times during the entire day. By my calculations, my new system using the Honeywell thermostat will average starting and stopping about 100 times per day. Now that is a big difference and totally unacceptable.) Continueing my investigation further, I found that none of the Honeywell thermostats offer temperature differential adjustments. In fact, the only brand that seems to offer this adjustment on all of their thermostats is the Robertshaw brand. I found that some of the Hunter models offer it, for example, their model 44760 has it. How did I fix the problem? I removed the Honeywell thermostat and threw it in the garbage and reinstalled my old Hunter. Now my AC, once it starts, stays on at least 20 minutes, not the 5 as was the case with the Honeywell, and cycles an average of 10 times per day, not the 100 times as was the case with the Honeywell thermostat.
I have this to say to Honeywell if they are listening. Spend less time on frivolous customer options like "Vacation Hold" and more on options that matter, like adjustable "temperature differential". At least widen the span from its present .2 degrees to no less than +/- .8 degrees. The cat is out of the bag and your thermostats should all be "RECALLED".

I would have given this 5 stars except the installation guide did not have enough details for a heat pump system with aux heat...7 wires worth. Plus, an important jump reference in the guide was a few pages off. Had to call the 24-hr. 800 number to get into the system setup. They were VERY helpful; turned out one button had to be held down more than the guide indicated - about 15+ seconds rather than 5 seconds.
The thermostat has worked flawlessly and we are pleased with the operation and options. Very satisfied with this versatile unit, and the low price, makes this is a very best buy!!!
