Comments about Honeywell Honeywell THX9321R5000 Prestige HD Thermostat:
Our old digital thermostat required an electrical engineering degree to install and to operate. Even simple functions like raising the temp a few degrees required multiple steps. My elderly in-laws were completely baffled by it when they visited. The Honeywell Prestige and outdoor wireless thermostat are FANTASTIC! SO easy to install and to operate. It guides you through the set-up with very easy, intuitive steps, and the control functions are very simple and intuitive, too. The screen is gorgeous, and is bright enough to function as a night light in our hall. We highly recommend this product.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell THX9321R5000 Prestige HD Thermostat:
These touch screen thermostats are so well designed and user friendly. Once you use them you will never go back to the old style. They look great with the back light on.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell THX9321R5000 Prestige HD Thermostat:
This is a really nice thermostat. Looks great and easy to install. There are quite a few menu items in the installer setup. For the most part though, the default settings work. There was just a couple that were pointed out in the instructions that I had to change. [...] NOTE: Honeywell will NOT offer support for homeowners as they state this unit is for professional installers only. [...]

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell THX9321R5000 Prestige HD Thermostat:
it works very well, but the dimming feature does not work on mine, other than that it is a very nice thermostat expensive but worth it and nice...

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell THX9321R5000 Prestige HD Thermostat:
This has a beautiful display, a laundry-list of features a mile long, is incredibly flexible in its programming abilities, I find it very easy to program and set up (more on that later), and is in a class all by itself. I looked at several other t-stats, and with the exception of the black and white version, this really is miles above the nearest competition.
My house was hit by lightning, and I had to replace my entire HVAC system. My contractor said I could pick out a t-stat, and he would install it for me. So, I picked this. This is fully programmable, touch screen, and in color. What I didn't realize was just how flexible and easy to set up it was. They packed a lot of power into an amazingly easy-to-use and friendly interface. Still, it's a programmable stat, and "techy," and some people don't like "techy." It's not as simple to use as the old dial wall stats I grew up with. But, the power you gain more than offsets the additional complexity.
I have a computer programming background, so setting up the t-stat was no problem for me. However, the contractor was a bit overwhelmed by it. The wiring is straight-forward enough, and it has connections for just about every option you could want, except perhaps an HRV/ERV. Then, you have to go into the setup menu to configure your equipment.
The contractor wired it up. Then, he turned it over to me and I programmed in the initial setup. It was easy enough, and I suspect that he could have done it, given a bit of time. It's just answering a bunch of questions. I asked him the question, he answered, I pushed the appropriate button.
That said, if you are intimidated by computers, this t-stat may not be for you. My wife is a bit overwhelmed by all its features, and she has taken to leaving setting the t-stat to me. This is OK, since I have set it to fully automatic mode. I love that I no longer have to switch between heat and cool - it just automatically does the right thing, based on the schedule. And with literally almost a dozen different override options, it's easy to temporarily alter the schedule - with a new schedule! Amazing!
So, if you like techno things, and aren't intimidated by computer technology, this is the best t-stat available. If your tech skills are limited to "twist the dial," you might want to get a simpler t-stat.
I will repeat - this is the best available, it's beautiful (it's the first t-stat I will look at just to look at it), and it is in a class all by itself. There's nothing else like it that I have seen. Highly recommended.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell THX9321R5000 Prestige HD Thermostat:
Great product that I use for a primary home thermostat. I've gone through about 4 thermostats within the last year and a half and I've finally found one that looks fantastic and works just as it should. For all my future needs I will definitely be coming back to Honeywell and ProThermostats. ProThermostats made the exchange of my first defective thermostat quick, easy and without any extra charges. I am definitely a fan...
