Thermostat was easy to set up and program, worked great for three months, then came down to a room that was 85 degrees when set for 64. Oil is expensive enough without burning it all night! Kudos to Amazon for allowing a return past the timeframe, planned on getting a new one, but think I'll pass and try another brand...

I have simple, heat only, forced air furnace so this was very easy to set up.Programming was MUCH easier than my old Noma that recently started acting funny.Manual did not mention switch to C from the default F but it does come up in the long list of settings. I wish they had put a slot at the back of the frame to hold the manual. There are so many options for first set up and the abbreviations on the screen would be hard to understand without the chart in the book. Not to worry as all those settings are unlikely to be needed (never seen a thermostat with so many options) so you just leave it at defaults. (eg. you can adjust/calibrate the room temp reading that displays on the screen by several degrees (I guess if you have to mount it somewhere that is not quite the same temp as the main part of the room?)).Setting day and time is so very easy!The default settings for 6a-8a, 8-6, 6p-10, and overnight are perfect but you can adjust them if you prefer. Great to have M-F as one program and then another for Sat and another for Sun. I think there is a "special day" setting as well.Screen is easy to read. Shows a flame symbol when calling for heat (very handy if you are trying to figure out if the furnace/pilot light is working).

It worked well in place of an Emerson thermostat. Installation was quick and easy. Anybody can install it themself, no need the service of an HVAC person.

I purchased two of these ELECTECK 5-1-1 Day Programmable Digital Thermostats for my home and another one for my relatives home. I am only using it to run the gas heating furnace.I use a two wire connection which is using the batteries (2 AAA) to trigger the relay and switch the furnace on/off.I do like the large numbers and the blue backlight that comes on when adjusting the thermostat with the buttons. It is very easy to read and good for my older eyes.The programming is pretty easy to figure out, the instructions are good explaining the operation of the buttons.Just an FYI these thermostats replaced the top of the line Nest thermostats which I have had for almost 3 years. The Nests have a mind of there own as far as heating goes. I was absolutely disgusted with the operation of the WiFi learning thermostats. In the 3 years I had them, I saved zero on heating charges. The scheduled temperature was always being overridden by a few degrees because of the learning function which you can never really turn off permanently. The temperature would be set up to maintain 68 degrees but the temperature inside would get to 66.5 degrees before it would turn on my furnace. These ELECTECK 5-1-1 Day Programmable Digital Thermostats are a major upgrade in my honest opinion.Nest, never again!

I bought this to replace a manual thermostat for heating. Easy to install. After you figure out, it's easy to program it for every day. You can program it for "wake, leave, return, sleep" times of the day for every day. Once you complete the set up, you do not need to touch it anymore. I purchased 3 days ago and used it. I am happy with my purchase so far. After you program it, you can change the set up time or temperature, if you want or you can hold the temperature at certain level temporarily (or permanently) for a while and later return back to the program and apply it.

Works great, easy to set up for work days and weekends. Replaced regular thermostat for my propane furnace, was simple to install, bright and easy to read in the dark.

This was quite reasonably priced, had an instruction manual that seemed to accomodate almost any system configuration one might find, and had a set of labels included so as to be able to map and follow the wires. I had bought this for the simplest of systems, a ceiling mounted propane heater, so installation was straight forward. The programming was simplicity. So why did I remove one star?One feature that would have been easy to include in the firmware would have been an automatic reset to the program temp settings after either a prescribed time period, or at the next wake-leave-return-sleep event. As it is, if one manually overrides the temperature command, that override stays in place until one manually removes it. At least, that's the best I can get out of it. With the heater in my shop, it means if I forget to reset it when I leave, it wastes heat.
