This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.


The Google Nest Thermostat garners generally positive reviews from users, citing its effective and efficient operation, ease-of-use, and intelligent capabilities. Users have noted that the thermostat does well with two-wire systems, despite there being some initial battery-related issues which eventually resolved itself.

  • 💰 Potential savings on utility bills and available rebates

Cons

  • 👎 Less integration with Amazon smart-home devices
  • 🤔 Initial battery issues, though resolved eventually
  • ⚙️ Certain households may not have the required wiring for it
  • ⌛ Limitations on the scheduling feature in the app

Should I Buy It?

Yes, as long as your home's wiring system is compatible with the device, it is a good investment. It is intelligent, easy to use and install, and could deliver potential cost savings on utilities. However, if you heavily rely on Amazon smart-home devices, you may want to consider other options due to limited integration.


  • Great Product
Initial Review, 15 May 2023: I installed this product on the 13th of May 2023. I have a two-wire, heat-only system, white (W1) and red (Rh). Prior to purchasing this product I read reviews and searched online for the best smart thermostat for a two-wire system. The Google Nest Thermostat was at the top of every search. Many reviews on Amazon state that this thermostat, if in a two-wire system, will only charge and get power while the furnace is operating. I found this to be inaccurate information. I found that, once connected, the two wires will keep the thermostat powered and the battery charged (I think it is really only one of the two wires keeping the system charged but ask an HVAC tech if you want to know). It seems that the purpose of the battery is in the case of power loss to your home. In this instance, the battery will provide power to the thermostat for a period of time. I am not a HVAC tech; if you want to know how this actually works, find an HVAC tech to provide accurate information. I did have an issue the first day. I set the thermostat up (connected to the two-wire heat-only system and set-up with the app) and everything worked great. Maybe an hour later, the thermostat would not connect to WIFI or the phone app. I found, in the thermostat, that the cause was a low battery. I took the thermostat off of the wall twice and charged it with the charging port. This worked, only temporarily. When I went to bed the night of install, the thermostat was connected to the app and working well. When I woke up in the morning, the thermostat was no longer connected to the phone due to low battery. This time, I did not take the thermostat off of the wall to charge. Instead I just let it remain disconnected. At some point in the afternoon, the thermostat connected to the app and seems to have plenty of power now. I am unsure of what caused the issue but it did work itself out (for now). I'll update after a few months of use or if I have issues before then. Pros: -Easy set-up (I mean this! Set-up could not have been easier. Impressive.) -Nice thermostat interface -Nice phone app interface -Great sensors (the nest has a motion sensor, this allows the thermostat to light up when you walk by to show you the current temperature or open the adjust options if you stand in front of the thermostat) -I dropped this thing and it still works great! Very durable. Cons: -The schedule in the Nest app could have more features and be easier to use -I have Amazon smart-home devices (Alexa) rather than Google. I feel that this thermostat does not integrate well with the Amazon products. You can change the temperature with the Amazon Echo devices. However, I wanted to use this as a temperature sensor for a routine (if temperature is this then run that routine). Unfortunately, the Echo will not recognize this thermostat in the routines to begin the routine. You can adjust the thermostat with a routine though. I would say this is an issue with the Amazon Echo and how Amazon has their routines set-up (this is not an issue with the Nest Thermostat). ... show more

  • Easy to install and use
I’m very happy with this, I installed it in about 30 minutes. If you have a photo of the wires in the old thermostat you don’t really need to put the stickers on the wires to identify where they go before you install them into the new box. It’s great having the app to be able to remotely set the temp. There is also an away eco function where it can automatically identify you are not home based on the location of your phone and allows the temp to go or down to the level you decide. I live in Florida and mine will go to 77 if I am away for example. I can’t imagine I will use the unit in the wall much as I can do everything through the phone app. I installed the unit with a third party white metal circular back plate, I think it looks more classy than the plastic one included with the thermostat.. ... show more

It was an easy install. I did have some problems doing a schedule, but once I figured it out it was easy

  • didn't work at first but download the latest firmware!
I have bought many of these for my multi-zone house. Word of caution through... I have had some that didn't work even though they were wired correctly! Tried everything and then on a hunch I loaded the latest firmware updates and it started working. At first it just wouldn't turn on the AC even though the display said AC and/or FAN was on in test mode. After updating the firmware it works great now. ... show more

  • Never worked but I waited to long to troubleshoot
I bought this second thermostat for my home second story furnace. The first story thermostat is also a google Nest which I was successful with installing, so I planned to get another so they could both be on the app. I bought sensors for the bedrooms so the doors could be shut and the thermostat in the hall would not be the temperature target. Just after I bought it life got insanely tragic and busy and it was more than a month before I started troubleshooting the thermostat. I kept trying to get it to work, thinking I was doing something wrong. I re-wired and brought it to the wifi router, got a wifi booster to get a stronger signal, etc... Ultimately it was abundantly obvious that the device does not go online. I can set a program but my life is not on a predictable schedule and the place I live is cool year-round (Northern and Coastal). The cost of the device was high. Now my two thermostats don't communicate which results in the first floor frequently running to heat both floors (overworking my furnace) or the second floor being turned on to warm cold bedrooms but never shutting off and overheating the bedrooms. I wish I never bought this device. My heat bill is higher than ever in this 120 year old house. This was supposed to be part of my energy saving endeavors but it backfired. But of course it was far too late to return it by the time I found out it would never work. What a nightmare. I should have bought it when I had the hours to put in to troubleshooting. ... show more

  • Why are there 3 positions for the same degree of temperature? Fan scheduling needs work.
The media could not be loaded. I'm confused about why rotating the dial doesn't do anything unless you rotate it enough. It's looks like it is adjusting 1/3 of a degree but actually nothing is happening. I suggest a new feature for fan scheduling that the fan turns on when heating or cooling or fan have not run in the last 30 minutes. I only want the fan working when the temperature inside and outside are about the same, which causes the heating and cooling to not turn on, at which point the air in the house becomes stale or stuffy. The fan should know when the air inside is stale or stuffy and turn on then. Current fan scheduling often blows the incorrect temperature air unless it is adjusted manually each season. I don't want the fan blowing hot air inside when it is hot outside and I don't want it blowing cold air inside when it is cold outside. It is inefficient to do this because the heating or cooling will have to counter the fan blowing the incorrect temperature air into the house. Otherwise good thermostat. ... show more
