Ecobee Smart Thermostat is overrated — here's why
By BoldCoder636 · REVIEW · 2/5 stars · About Ecobee Smart Thermostat
I know this is an unpopular opinion but Ecobee Smart Thermostat really isn't worth the hype. I've had persistent issues with reliability and the customer support has been disappointing. For the price point there are better alternatives that deliver more consistent results. Maybe I got a bad unit but my experience has been frustrating.

WildOrbit297: Had the same problem. Try resetting to factory defaults and setting up from scratch. Fixed it for me. Pain to reconfigure everything but it works.
StormPulse179: Thanks for the honest take. Been on the fence about buying this for weeks.
ShadowSpark326: Comparing Ecobee Smart Thermostat to what was available even two years ago is night and day. The category has improved so much and this product is leading the way.
