I installed two of these in my house without problems in less than 2 hours. they're easy to setup and program. They also are less likely to break after a year because they're not touchscreen. the touchscreen ones often have to be replaced every year or so.

I purchased this thermostat to replace an old manual unit. I also liked the fact that it displayed both the room temperature and the set temperature. I used it for a year, and noticed as soon as I installed it that it was reading a temperature about 2 degrees higher that my what it actually was in the house. Additionally, it seemed to take forever for the temperature to drop or raise by as little as one degree. I exchanged it for the same unit, and had the same issues. I know that the temperature inaccuracy is not huge, but I am fickle, and a thermostat only has to do one job well, and this one could not do it accurately. I replaced it with the Lux TX9000TS and am much happier overall. Additionally, the Lux has a light button, so I can activate the backlight without pushing another button.

This thermostat is easy to install. It comes with wire labels for the wires on your existing thermostat. These match nicely to the new one with some cross referencing. My system is a heat pump with auxillery heat. It took 30 minutes to install. I could do it again in 15 minutes. You get an installation guide, operating manual, and a miniature CD guide. Programming was easy too but it was pre-programmed almost to the settings I ended up choosing anyway. *One concern may be for people with existing wires labeled Y1, W1, W2, V, or VR. The manual says to contact an expert if you have these wires. I had no problem. You can check for these wires by pulling your existing thermostat straight off its base and looking at the terminal labels (pull circuit breaker first). Good luck.
Honest reviews on Honeywell Vision Conventional 5-1-1-Day Programmable Thermostat
I installed two of these in my house. It was surprisingly easy, as the instructions were very well done. Programming is straightforward, but maybe a bit tedious (fortunately it shouldn't need to be done very often). It's nice going to bed and having the heat turn down overnight and then have the house nice and warm again when you get up in the morning. Highly recommended even for those less than handy.

In general I'm happy with this thermostat. It's easy to set up and has a good size display. I like that it's backlit, so easy to adjust in a dark room. The one issue I have with this model has to do with a feature that's not there, but was in the Lux thermostat that I replaced. It does not show filter usage, i.e., how many hours my furnace has run since I last changed the filter.
