Honeywell Wifi Thermostat 6500 Only Turns On Heat

The Ecobee was recommended to me by the HVAC guy I had come out to remove the Honeywell thermostat I had installed. Turns out it was defective. The HVAC guy could tell I didn't know much about installing thermostats so he recommended Ecobee. It was also the least expensive of the newer "smart" products. I had no trouble at all putting in the Ecobee and getting it to work. And I love being able to adjust the setting with my phone.

Bought this in Oct 2018, to replace a standard Honeywell 24/7 programable thermostat and found this very simple to install and use. I emailed support a picture of current wiring and they came back 2 days later with the recommendation for the wiring. Within 10 minutes it was up and running. I use the geo fencing feature and it have learned my setting preferences to provide energy savings.

Had an old Honeywell thermostat that came with the home built in 2003. Couldn't tell exact temperature. Wanted s smart thermostat that I could adjust while I was away to save energy. Purchased through my utility company and got a great deal and free install!

Really glad made the decision and replaced my 3 month old Honeywell thermostat thought it was same expensive

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I always saw ads for the ecobee smart thermostat but we had a Honeywell lyric so I was hesitant to try this. We love the recyclable packaging the product came in. It was super easy to install. The design is very sleek and I like the display and I love the eco+ and the smart home and away feature to help save money! We’ve only been using the for a few weeks but so far we are happy!

This is my second ecobee thermostat. This one works great with my heat pump. I particularly like the eco + feature.

When I got this machine it would not heat up, it would not produce any fog. I checked the fuse, tried again...nothing, so I got on the internet and it turns out this is not an unusual issue. I took the cover off the machine and hit the little white reset button that looks like a teeny nipple. That was it, I don't know if it got beat around in shipping but it is fixed and this thing can really put out some fog. Just what I wanted it just needed a little help.

My wife the dial twiddler would always set our thermostat too high as she thought it would heat up faster if if done that way eg. Accelerator on a car. This unit with the help of Alexa listens to her and never over heats the house.

Switching from another major smart thermostat, it is a trade between aesthetic and functionality. Ecobee has so many options allowing me to tweak every aspect of a heat pump + aux heat system. I really hope ecobee allows me to customize the stand by screen like the competitor.

The Nest Learning Thermostat does what it says and is easy to use. I love the history feature which explains how much heat pump is used versus propane. I got it for my lake house and with its simple app on my mobile I have total control.
