Our take
Co-developed with Honeywell Home, this is the budget gateway into smart thermostats with reliable temperature control and Alexa Hunches automation. The catch: it's deeply Alexa-centric with no app of its own, no support for Google or HomeKit, and you'll likely need a C-wire adapter (sold separately).
What we like
- By far the lowest price among name-brand options
- Solid Honeywell-derived temperature control
- Alexa Hunches can automate based on your routines
- Simple, no-frills setup
What to keep in mind
- Alexa-only; no Google Assistant or Apple HomeKit
- No dedicated app, controlled through Alexa
- C-wire adapter often required and sold separately
