Pros: Easy to use, battery backup, backlit touchscreen display, detachable for "armchair programming"

For basic setups, easy installation.
Cons: So far no problems.
Summary: I had a problem. I have 4 heating zones in my house and I had a thermostat for 2 BR's in a small hallway at the top of a stairway. 1 of these bedrooms is a nursery and the door is often left closed. However, the thermostat in the hallway was always ... read more

Pros: See above.

Pros: -Lots of (very useful) features
-Tight temperature control
-Well designed
Cons: -No traditional "swing" control (but I've discovered this isn't a problem--see my review.)
Summary: I bought this Honeywell, and was at first discontented, as were other reviewers, at the lack of "swing" control. (BTW, you can control the "cycle rate," which I THINK nikiwind must have been refering to, but that is not the exact same thing as "swing.") ... read more

Pros: Probably better then most of the stuff you find in Big Box stores.
Cons: Not the real deal, features missing from the professional versions.
Summary: First off let’s get something straight, the RTH8500 is not a full featured VisionPRO thermostat, it is a cut down version manufactured for the big box stores and sold at what I think is an unreasonable price given the cost of the full featured ... read more

Pros: Easy to use
Cons: No pressure differential adjustment
Summary: Contrary to what other reviewers have written, the temperature differential is NOT adjustable on these thermostats according to an email I have directly from Honeywell technical support. In my opinion, this is a poor design for such a reputable

Pros: Easy to install. Easy to use.
Cons: Without back light on a little hard to read.
Summary: The review from Richro1965 just about says it all. Very easy to install. Honeywell has a website where you can get the install instructions. Check it out first before you buy one to see how easy it is. Bought a new one in a sealed box on Ebay for

Pros: Touchscreen, easy to program, temperature override features excellent!
Cons: No adjustable temperature differential.
Summary: Yes, this is the most awesome, user friendly thermostat I have ever used. The touchscreen and ease of programming and temp override options make this the cream of the crop. But it's missing one feature that I feel all thermostats should have, and
