Comments about White-Rodgers White-Rodgers 1F85RF-275 Thermostat and Wireless Remote Sensor Kit:
This product performs exactly as advertised. We were having trouble regulating the temperature in my daughter's room. It was hard for me to sleep knowing that she might be uncomfortable. I can honestly say that I have slept much better every night since installing this new thermostat.
I will caution that at random times the thermostat will run on default programming which is a little cool from my comfort. However, I believe that it may be caused by power surges from my home rather than the internal operation of the thermostat. A good surge protector should solve this problem.
Delivery was promt and in great condition.
I also had to call customer service to confirm my wiring configuration and they were extremely helpful, courteous, and fast.

Comments about White-Rodgers White-Rodgers 1F85RF-275 Thermostat and Wireless Remote Sensor Kit:
A good product with clear display, easy physical installation, & complex, but reasonably easily mastered programming. One feature I appreciated was the ability of the base and remote to re-link automatically after a power shut down and re-start at the panel.
The big problem is with the set-up instructions. They can be more that a little confusing and require constant shifting referral from section to section to complete the set-up process. Once it's done you're home free, but it can take a while and concentrated diligence to get there.
I am comfortable recommending and would buy again to use for the same type of install. To wit, a two-story building with an old mercury thermostat in a bad location downstairs causing ongoing and bothersome temp differential between floors.

Comments about White-Rodgers White-Rodgers 1F85RF-275 Thermostat and Wireless Remote Sensor Kit:
Overall, this is a nice thermostat. The build quality seems to be solid, and has been functioning as it should. The appearance is similar to the basic White-Rodgers thermostat that it is replacing, with the exception of additional on-screen displays. The remote sensor and the programmability, along with it's compatibility to our system are what influenced our decision to buy this model.Even though the thermostat options are awkward (to say the least) to adjust, it gets the job done. Other manufacturers seems to be going in the direction of larger display, touch-screen, etc, type of thermostats, and I can clearly see why. User friendliness.To be quite honest, due to the relative difficulty in using this thermostat's menu, I've really procrastinated in learning EVERY feature that it may have to offer. I've had it for a month or so.Not much good to say about the instruction book, but the manufacturer help-line seems to have knowledgeable staff. Wonderful service from [@] / National Trade Supply!
Ordering this product was very easy. After using iaqsource.com and speaking to iaqsource customer service, I felt confident that I was getting the correct product for the best possible price.
My thermostat arrived on the day I was told it would, and was packaged very well. Regardless, I sure do hope that the delivery company was careful with it!
Everything is "A++" so far!

Comments about White-Rodgers White-Rodgers 1F85RF-275 Thermostat and Wireless Remote Sensor Kit:
My non-movable thermostat was in a hall way that was always hotter than the adjacent rooms. Now, with a movable sensor, I'm not trying to cool off the hallway, only the rooms - much more comfortable and cheaper.

Great product. Tech line on wireing a bit missleading. Had to hire HVAC pro to wire correctly.
