I love Nest thermostats. In fact, I have several of them in my house. That said, if I had it to do all over again I would probably opt for something different. Like most people, I actually don’t use most of Nest’s “learning” features which means I paid $250 each for thermostats that are underutilized. If you just want some basic smart features and the ability to control your thermostat from your phone or with Alexa, definitely check out the iDevices Wi-Fi enabled Smart Thermostat instead — especially while it’s on sale for just $65 instead of $100!
