5.0 out of 5 stars Quick Intallation, Easy instructions, Easy use, as well as a value, August 7, 2006

By	Wiseguy 945 (Omaha, NE) - See all my reviews

I finally decided mid way through the summer to replace my aging thermostat with a more modern programable one after the shock of the first summer electric bill. Every day I would raise the thermostat before I left, but ocassionally I'd forget and waste a days worth of cooling. There are many choices for thermostats, and I initially looked at this model because of the name, Honeywell, A brand that I recognize and Know is a major player in thermostats and climate controll. I purchased this model because of its great step by step instruction and ease of installation. I have worked with other older programable thermostats, and many use to be difficult to program and even more dificult to figure out the display. Well, this unit has a nice easy to read picture display, and the programing is a snap. One feature that is nice is that it has 4 programable times during the day: wake up, going to work, home from work, bedtime, allowing you to save energy over the day, but also over night when it is cooler. It also has easy to program saturday and sunday settings as well, with available 4 programing settings as well if needed. So if your in the market for a new thermostat, this is a nice simple unit, affordable, and easy to use, why waste more money on a more expensive model.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great thermostat--lousy installation directions, January 20, 2007

By	D. Beach (New Mexico) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I installed this thermostat to control a gas furnace, following the wiring instructions. The instructions said to remove the jumper wire in the connection terminal if you had a two-wire control circuit. I did as instructed; the furnace came on but would not quit. After I played with the unit for several hours, my wife checked the Honeywell website, and finally found that the instructions there said that the jumper was mandatory for proper operation if you had a single transformer and a two wire system. I put the jumper back on and the thermostat has worked flawlessly since. The thermostat works really well, but the directions stink.

5.0 out of 5 stars Honeywell programmable thermostat, January 15, 2007

By	Gary A. Strand (Shenandoah Valley) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It is a very good product and easy to program. I would have preferred a cover that is hinged rather than snap on and off.
