Nest

Been installing nest for years and customers are really pleased with the Permian r and level of control. Tech support has improved considerably and no quibble on replacing one of the very few that have failed.

They are what they are, they work and they look pretty but the early versions are not the best and I find the customer service isnt the best when something does go wrong. But when the work. They do work well.

Not bad for what they are. I have supplied and fitted a few nest products. Value is not the best but neither are any in this kind of market. But all the customers have said they like them and find the app easy to use to control their products from work or even holidays. Customer service is useful if you just need the instructions sent to you. After that they will listen. Say yes I know exactly what to you need to do I will send the manual and send you the same thing in the box. No clue on real world problems when connecting to boilers, existing thermostats etc. And you never get the handy little tags they tell you to use when changing thermostats. Seems they are not included

When I bought this and installed it, I thought it was great. It certainly looks striking. However, the early version that I have does not control the water.
On to my experience of the features. Being able to control your heating on the way home is great, but the connection is not always reliable. I’m not convinced that the automation features work that well, like learning your routine, or know8ng you are away from home . I’m considering a Tado next, that has geofencing .

I use to swear by nest. All my customers would get one if they wanted a WiFi stat. Everything was great customer services the lot.

Now
I have to say there customer services is rubbish. you sit on the phone half hour min and don’t change your email you lose all your credits. I now refuse to fit nest they break constantly. Always have a wifi problem and they are now behind in the market with no opentherm options. They use to come With a nice usb plug. Then changed to just a usb. Now you have to buy a stand if you want that. It’s all money making and no aftermarket support.

It’s hard not to like a Nest Thermostat, but as the folks at Google learned over the years, the primary reason people cite for not buying one is they’re too expensive. That changes with this latest model. It’s not as slick or sophisticated as the top-of-the-line best Learning Thermostat, but it carries enough of that device’s DNA to be an excellent value. In fact, it’s our new top pick in the budget category.

I regularly install these. Quality is very good however the accessories which come with the kit are poor, no USB cable, price of stand at £30+ seems expensive and sometimes customers don’t have a pre existing thermostat which means they have to buy a stand on top of item. Apart from that this is a decent bit of kit.

I've got both the nest thermostat and the Google nest wifi mesh kit. Love them both. The thermostat is clever and has saved us a lot of money. Automatically detects when you're not there and learns your evening and morning routines to work most efficiently. I'd love them to do individual radiator thermostats too.

Stylish, modern appearance. Good range of products. Easy to connect but can be fiddly when it comes to the IT side of it.

Have had a few DIY installs to complete for customers who thought they could Do It Themselves and failed.

Good quality of home and security products. Might be a bit fiddly for the not so techy people but of your techy like me your be alright. Sturdy products , fairly price and would recommend.

Had multi issues with this, 2/3 years old device stop working not turning heating off intermittently not just one had multi. hard to contact someone for tech help have to just replace

We had to test these as some customers request them as a known brand, plus doorbells, cameras etc which Drayton dont offer yet.
Our thoughts were a Smart dsvice but the self learning feature appeals to gadget bods but too interactive for some, thats why you need them plugged into a socket as battery powered they be flat in no time. Not even my third choice Smart control.

Recently installed one at my own home, decent bit of kit, however the self learning can be a little annoying at times. Generally a great product however

Fitted a Nest doorbell for the first time the other day. Nice and straightforward to install but took a while to set it up for the customer on the app. Personally I think they look better than the Ring doorbells but you fit what the customer has bought!

The new integration of nest products with google hub max and google assistant mean you can monitor cameras and doorbells from the hub max screen. Inter-connectivity of all items such as room stats, smart speakers, chrome cast is a doddle through the google home app. IMHO the best whole home system available.

Nest is the best brand out there when it comes to wireless programmable smart stats .... the interface and the ease of use is second to none !

Would always install / recommend over any other products .

The Nest brand and range has got a following but others have innovated at great pace to keep up and even surpass what nest can do, such as ring for doorbell and camera technology. Functions are good and compatibility with Google makes this a premium and quality smart home offering

Have fitted a couple of these now and am really impressed with how easy they are to install and set up. By far the best looking on the market too.

It's amazing how far technology has come on but yet these are so simple to install and use. In my opinion nest is the best looking Tim clock and room stat on the market

Fitted nest Honeywell and hive smart stats, nest is by far my favourite looks great and easy to used although not the cheapest the customer tech support is good

Fitted a few for new boiler installs recently. The look the business and are moderately easy to use but I’m afraid the customer service can be a pain. Last customer had one pack up and it took him weeks to get a replacement.

Fitted quite a few on my new boiler installations and my customers love it. Easy to install and set up, very user friendly and easy to use. Thermostat looks great and everything works really well

I have a nest camera on my front door, its been running flawlessly for about 2 years, any interruption has been down to my internet rather than the camera or cloud service, when there was one issue they refunded the monthly fee, good quality camera and good picture and app interface, bit laggy from real time but i think thats internet related too

Have fitted a few nest controls On jobs, they are easy to fit and customers really like the simplicity using them on a daily basis ,
The app works well and having cameras works well

We have been installing Nest for a while now. Nest is my personal favourite for thermostats, they look incredibly stylish simple to use and really easy to install.

Now as a fitter myself I have installed quite a few programmers and stats
I actually went with the nest simply by design and looks
To install is quick and no unnecessary cables
Just simply plug in connect to ya broadband provider and away you go
The best bit is syncing with the amazon echo
And ask Alexa to turn your heating on which the missus really loves as she doesn’t have to mess about with controls

I've got a nest door bell and google home so it gives you a voice prompt when someone rings the door bell 8 had to change my door transformer as you need a 12 to 24v supply not the older type

Do what they do really, works well, fairly easy to install, found hive a little easier to install. Can see why they are the market leader. Just pricey seems a lot for what it is

I have a nest stat great but expensive I looked at the smart cams but they were not cheap .....................................................

i gave gad the nest heating thermostat for over 4 years now and it has never let me down, not the cheapest controller but it makes it up by being reliable and easy to install

I have 2 of the smoke detectors and I wish I never installed them they start going off even at silly o’clock in the morning. DO NOT BUY THE SMOKE DETECTORS!

The best on the market, I used to fit hives, but recently swapped to nest.
Nest have extra ‘bolt ons’, learns with the end user, and is updated regularly

Great bit of kit. Used on heating systems. I tend to do a lot of work on second homes and find that nest offers a great way for customers to control their heating and hot water

We are Nest pro installers so we install the full range of NEST products. Having fitted hundreds of thermostats I find that they are easy to install. Although the terminals are small and they would be better if they were bigger I use bootlace Ferrules and these mean the cables fit far better and it gives a better quality of Finnish. We also fit the Nest hello doorbells and the cameras and nest protect smoke detectors. I find that the products are well designed and very ergonomic. The thermostat and doorbell in my opinion look far superior any of the rival products on the market.

Whenever I have had any faults or queries I have found Nests customer service second to non and they are always there to help talk through any problems. I have also assisted with several customers who have had faults with the products and Nest have replaced them as they are covered by a very good 2 year warranty.

The Nest systems are now owned by google and they are very easy to integrate with google home and Alexa so you can ask Alexa or google to alter the temperature or the google home hub announces that someone is at the door and the hub shows you a picture of who is at the door.

Google has also simplified the Nest aware cloud subscription now. It use to be that you had to pay for every camera that you had on the system but now they have introduced a yearly subscription and you can have unlimited cameras storing to the cloud. You can then set up zones to monitor movement and you can then select and download the individual clips to your computer.

I definitely recommend all of the Nest products and look forward to installing lots more for my customers

Fitted over 50 nest heating systems now and everytime I'm always p****ed off with how small the terminals are. Apart from that, they are by far the smartest looking thermostat on the market. Another down side I found with my personal one is the smart timings messing up when I drive passed my house, this has been sorted by turning this feature off.

Fitted a couple not got one myself yet but like the door bell and app for the phone people love the idea of not getting up to see people at the door think a lot of people are now being left out side

Fitted a few of the nest controllers now and can totally recommend them, they look good and the app is easy to use, only thing that would be good would be a battery operated version.

Installed a few nest systems now ! Very easy to install via the app and very easy to use ! The stat I feel is the best on the market and the external cameras although not cheap are a great quality ! The door bell is always a pain in the arse finding a chime to work

My go to thermostat for customers who want to modernise their homes.

Very easy to install and use, I love the classic thermostat look and feel.

Not too keen on the next thermostat e as it doesn’t work with mains voltages.

Found all the google nest product to be great at working together from the carbon monoxide alarm to the thermostat working together to keep you safe with automatic turn off function if carbon monoxide is detected

Nest Products are a great way to bring your boiler up to speed with all your other automated gadgets around the house. I still think they are a little on the expensive side and take a little while to set up but all round a great innovation from Nest.

Nest products are great and easy to use with easy access instructions to follow and great customer service at the end of the phone if needed.

Fitted a couple of nests now, very impressed by the product functionality and customer are always commenting on how easy on the eye they are!

We like nest, easy to fit , wiring diagrams are not the best but with a bit of knowledge you can get by . Customers are happy , we are happy ,

If you want a internet stat then this is the one to have. It has many features that improve energy efficiency, tho a lot of these need to be wired in through opentherm, Baxi and Ideal have this but Worcester and Vaillant don’t. 3rd generation has heating and hot water control, E only has heating control.

Best smart thermostat on the market for me, ticks all the boxes, easy to install, great app, stylish and great add ons for home security ect. Only downside for me is the price compared to the Honeywell Lyric for me it’s a bit more expensive, the Lyric is also a great control and we fit loads this is mainly down to the cost for the customer

I have been fitting Nest thermostats for the last few years they are well manufactured stylish and probably the most intuitive to use in you just have to turn the dial clockwise to increase the temperature and anticlockwise to turn it down. The smoke CO alarms are good as well in they give you spoken alarms and do a self test.

I have been fitting nests since they have come out and they have certainly came on from the first ones and I have found them to be easy to use and easy to install as well. Highly recommended

Nest products are well made and very well packaged. Smooth app and good features mean they are favourite with my customers. Nest thermostat is best product

I have used a nest thermostat with my previous 2 boilers. I would not use any other thermostat. I have teamed it with the best protect. Best cameras and best hello. All work extremely well with my google home to give me full control over my house. Best product on the market.

Got a wide range of the nest range. Their smoke arms are very good as they also give a spoken warning rather than just he alarm. Also useful if you have to walk on the landing in the night as when you walk under the smoke alarm it shines a light to give illumination to your route

By far the most overrated stat out there. Never realised how bad they were until I fitted one at home and watched my gas bill increase. In opentherm there is no low load control so when system up to temp the boiler constantly cycles on and off doing it no good at all. Tried to sort this with their tech support but on average only got an email back every 24 hours. No have it running as a basic on off control with no time to temp or anything in order to try and get gas bill down.

I fit these most most weeks and really love the quality of the product and customers are really happy everytime I have fitted them. The product looks great once fitted only issue I see is the plastic frame would be better a bit smaller for the asthetics of the product.

Overall a fantastic product. One of the best smart brands on the market. Have experience with their thermostats, and cctv and have not has issue with either. It's installed in our home throughout.

This is my smart stat of choice
Fit this to 80% of Installations
Easy to install ....
Easy to use ....
Compatible with home assistance devices

Great thermostat and very easy to install and set up. I have fitted quite a few now and really do like them. I think they could be better priced as are a little expensive.

I have fitted 5 over the last 7 months. Very simple to fit and set up. Customers love the design and the app. The only down side is the price. But It is the one I recommend if the customer is willing to pay

By far the best thermostat on the market but a little pricey. Customers tend to want a cheaper smart thermostat. But if money allows will always be my stat of choice

What’s not to like about all of the nest products. Being a nest pro installer I fit a lot of the thermostats to customers houses from the moment of opening the box the nest products feel well built quality items well worth the expense. All of the best products are the same and the new doorbell is well made and very useful. I love the nest products so much I have all of them fitted in my own home

Looks the part, customer loves it and it works a treat. What’s not to love about Nest. Even the price is competitive for what you get. I have two and have recommended to family and friends.

Nest, fantastic brand really nice feel to everything even down to the box it comes in, was blown away with the fist stat I installed and then became a nest pro installer

I have the next product in my own home I have the doorbell the thermostat and to nest cameras,
Overall I’m really pleased with the items the doorbell was a little bit finicky to try and set up,
But thermostat works well optimisation is brilliant and the camera system is amazing I love it

Great stuff from Nest I fit lots of gen 3 thermostats and I have to say quality of the product is great also so easy installation.
Definitely recommend 10/10

We have found using nest products great to use.
Easy to install and very intuitive.
Nest pro has worked well so far and has given us a couple of leads.

I fit the nest smart thermostat quite a lot. Prefer it over Hive.
Great product easy to use. Simple for customers to use.
My only criticism is the wiring is a bit fiddly could do with better connections.

Purchased my first nest..
3rd generation controls hot water on/off and heating thermostat.
Easy to install, excellent quality and easy to set up and install

The products I have worked with from Nest are very good quality, really easy to use and give very efficient heating control. Can't comment on customer service as I haven't had any problems!

Nice smart looking thermostat. Have had a few with connection issues but easily solved via their technical. Cust's find easy to use and control. Not the cheapest controller but good quality

Have tested one in my own home and love it. Only time it plays up is when I loose broadband which isnt the nests fault.

High quality products great to work with and easy to use so clients are happy! CCTV range is also incredible good highly recommended

As a Nest pro I’ve seen a big jump on how many people are getting Nest products
Product is more Sleek design at a reasonable price

Tried a few of these internet programmers but alway prefer installing Nest.
Easy to fit on both combi and fully pumped systems. I like the design, quality and ease of use.

Quality product, well built. Instructions are easy to follow making installation really easy.
Easy to use, customers find them intuitive.

Have been installing the smoke detectors in a few jobs now and think these are great they are easy setup and install there down side however is no heat detector to complete the circuit. Great value for money

Have been fitting nest controls for three years customer support always patience talk you through our first few install,s now we are nest pro acredited cost is affordable to most install,s

I have been a Nest pro installer for a while now and always try to upswell customer boiler controls when installing a new system. Easy to install, great ease of use for the customer and pain free for me with no call backs.

Installed a few nest's now, easy to install and set up with the end user, I have even installed the thermostat and smoke/co alarm in my own house I'm that impressed with the products

Fitted 2 of these now. I must admit I thought installing one and setting up was going to be a bit of a headache. Not at all. So easy to install and set up.

Now I have seen all of smart thermostats on the market and I'd it's one of the best looking not the cheapest but you can do a lot more works with Google home speaker lost of add on nice to get discount on personal nest stuff

Installed a few now
Got one at home like the email facility on savings and the fact I can lock the wife out of controls

Installed over 20 different thermostats and this is by far the best wifi one on the market. 5 stars all day

Great thermostat looks good easy to install
Good customer support.
Value for money not great installer discount unless you buy 5 or more.

Really nice thermostat, simple to install and use however this doesn't yet have compatibility with the Vaillant bus therefore can only be used as an on/off controller with Vaillant boilers.

Nest is best easy to use and install. Fitted a few on combis and s plan. Co alarm and cameras are good too. Only downside is the monthly subscription for cameras

Best smart controls there is, looks awesome, easy to install, have one myself.

Great bit of kit Beats the competition easily

Great product, even better look, they're very stylish and easy to use. Connection ports a little small, being a little larger would make installation easier.

This product looks fantastic, easy to install it wish the connections were slightly larger. Work brilliantly.

First class products across the board. Quality products quality engineering
Customer service are right on the ball and get your questions answered very quickly

Nest... easy to install and pair with wifi and phone great learning function and a load of extra add ons. Nice looking and good quality smart stat. (Should through on the stand free though)

Nest make the best smart thermostat hardware available, simply luxurious. The customer service is questionable. The product range is limited but slowly expanding. I've installed well over a 100 of their units with no problems to date.

Have been fitting nest since day one and have done over 100 now, great product with excellent realibilty.

Of course customers love it and it has helped expand my business exponentially!

A great piece of kit. I have one in my home and have fitted a few for customers who love it. Trying to contact Nest isn't as easy as using their stat unfortunately also no discounts for Nest Pro instaiiers.
