Sounds like a user error.
Got this late last year when it was $10 cheaper and very happy with it so far. Installed in a large, older house that's single zone but has dampered returns in every room. With the remote sensors, it makes it easy for me to balance airflow to keep temps balanced across the house. Only thing that's not as advertised for me was the remote speaker functionality - maybe it would be OK for listening to a podcast or something, but it's no louder than my phone's speaker and sound quality is meh.

Also a shoutout to their support, who helped me diagnose an installation issue on Thanksgiving day via pictures and step-by-step troubleshooting. I'd recommend this unit to anyone, and I am blown away at how much better this is vs. the Lennox smart thermostat in our other home that cost $2k when we installed with a new heat pump.
I recently went from nest to ecobee. Ecobee allows a lot more configuration with the sensors. Nest is very rigid (you just choose a sensor to use as the setpoint instead of the thermostat itself, and it doesn't give you even fine-grained times so much as 'overight', 'morning', 'evening' blocks of time). Ecobee sensors will detect presence in the areas and determine which group of sensors to use at a given time. If no one is in the room, it is not used in the temperature determination. It's a bit more setup, but a lot more flexibility. I am mostly happy with the change. I find the only area where nest was better than ecobee for me is the home/away features.

Pure crap. I've had this for about 2 years and I can't wait for it to blow up so I can go back to Nest. There has not been 1 day in 2 years that this peice of crap goes up to 80 when I leave the house like it's set up to do. I have called the company clowns and all they do is ask for the serial number and do a reset. I just work it manually until the day it brakes. The sensors are worthless too. Good luck

Hmm you have me thinking about going with nest instead. I'll do more research.

Ecobee is fine. I have 4 in two homes for four years now. Never had an issue and enjoy great energy savings. I wouldn't hesitate to buy again.

I went from Nest to this Ecobee. With the Nest I was constantly changing the temperature up and down.. up and down. Once I moved to Ecobee and adjusted setting over a week or two- I don't need to adjust it anymore. It's away at the right temperature and my electricity bill has even gone down. I am never going back to the nest.

Thinking of buying this to replace my 1st gen Nest.

Need some sensors and I can't wait any longer to update their Gen 3 Nest from 2015.

The user interface on ecobee thermostats is terrible. Instead of being intuitive and user friendly, it's more like a tiny tablet on the wall with some text being so small that you can't even read it. A poorly designed thermostat in my opinion. I couldn't wait to get rid of it. I replaced it with a Google thermostat which I don't have a single complaint about.

I've considered switching for the sole purpose that nest does not support setting the humidifier humidity level by outdoor temp. So I'm constantly changing the percentage in the app as the weather changes

Love my ecobee3. I got it in 2017 on clearance at Home Depot for $49 and 2 additional sensors for $15. One of my better scores! I've been looking for more sensors to put in other rooms for quick temp checks - I'd love to find the ones I have (1st gen?), but can only find the new style. I'm not paying more than $10-$20 for them and I'd be happy to buy someone's used sensors from an older/upgraded ecobee.

Sexiest thermostat ever haha. Installed like 8 of these around my house. Had the previous gen for a few months and quickly upgraded.

I've read mixed things about these thermostats with modern heat pumps. Anyone have any experience? Mitsubishi HP and thermostat, if that's relevant

I like ecobee more than Nest when it works. My ecobee 4 constantly drops wifi after they updated the UI. Support tells me it's my wifi, but none of my other electronics or IoT switches have issues. But I will give this a try and if I have issues will just return to Costco.

Quote from IShortysI :
anyone go from nest to ecobee? no sensors with my nest and have a room in my house with only 1 vent so it gets a few degrees colder than other rooms.

Yes, originally I had both for different zones in a house. Ecobee was always better. Better connectivity, more advanced settings, easier controls.

Nest was ok, but really I found Ecobee to be the superior product. Ended up switching out to all Ecobee after that 6mo trial of both.

Also, Nest (Google product), is a bit invasive / sketchy. Random intervals at night I saw some network traffic coming from the unit. Not sure why, but I didn't like that.

The sensors are expensive. This is a good deal.

I think they were like 60 bucks each and I refuse as much as I want another sensor.

The ecobee is the best smart thermostat hands down. I spent some time setting up lot of ranges for each period but it really is smart and control the temperature quite well for the whole house.

You can also control the thermostat from their website also.

Quote from dbernie41 :
PSA that there is no way to disable the proximity radar from turning on the screen at night. If I have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night I have to walk by the thermostat and it lights up extremely brightly. This uses radar so from what I understand there is no way to block the proximity sensor. Seems like a really easy thing to implement so I'm bummed it is missing and may even drive me to return it because of how disruptive it is at night.

As long as you have a "sleep" mode set you should be able to turn this off. You need to access this setting on the thermostat itself (not the app).

• ⁠Main Menu > Settings Gear Icon> Preferences
• ⁠Expand Screen Brightness
• ⁠Select the checkbox for "Screen sleeps when I sleep"

You can also set the default brightness and how long the screen stays on for.
