Which smart thermostat would you recommend?

[UnicornsAndLizards]

Just that really. Nest or Hive? Are there any others worth considering?

Anyone?

I don’t know much about these but our builders just recommended Heatmiser.

Tado, if everyone in your house has a smartphone. Love ours. It senses when everyone is out and turns the heating off, senses when you are close to home or at home and turns it on again. Love ours.

Not Hivem it’s a pain in the arse. Keeps going down and then the figures in the app are not the same as on the thermostat.

I've had a Netatmo and a Hive. The Hive is annoying. The Netatmo was cheaper and better; more intuitive and easier to connect and deal with through Amazon Echo.

The nest is apparently easier to set up than the hive,
The Drayton wiser and Honeywell evo home are really good.

We have the Tado one - we installed it ourselves relatively easily (so no need to pay for installation) and the auto turn off when you’re all out is ace

I have the Honeywell T6 Lyric and love it!

We have a nest and that also links into the phones. Works well and no complaints.

Thanks everyone for your input

I have a Drayton Wiser system. Really pleased with it. Cheaper than many of the alternatives and was very simple to install. They have thermostatic radiator valves which gives you a lot more control than a simple 'smart thermostat' system.

We have Heatmiser and it works very well.

We've got Honeywell love it

Have had both Hive and Nest and IMO Hive is better.

We are happy with our Hive.

We also have Tado, and normally I'd recommend it but I believe there is now a charge for new customers.

We have nest, it was installed in a house that we bought, been fine, customer service were very good when I was struggling to move the account over. It’s an older model but runs very well, I love being able to pre set everything from my phone.

I've had a Nest for four years now and love it - best thermostat I've ever had!

We have a Netatmo. Relatively simple to install (two wires) and compatible with Amazon Echo and Apple HomeKit. We’re very pleased with it.

We have a nest and absolutely love it. It looks beautiful. It learns our routines. Knows when we are home or away. It's voice controlled through alexa. Just love it.

I've got a hive. It's always telling me the temperature is about 2 degrees hotter than what it actually is, and it's very slow to update the temperature when you move into a room that is cooler etc.

I don’t like the idea of a thermostat being able to turn the heating on when it feels like it. It could come on when we’re out and cook the dog. Or it could come on at night and cook small DC. There was an article in the news about a kid who died without even waking because the bedroom got too hot.

We've got a Nest learning thermostat and it's brilliant.

Not hive, I detest it - the thermostat gets through batteries like nobodies business and the thermostat keeps disconnecting
