Review of Cadet Electric Programmable Thermostat - 16 Amp, White, Model# TH110

Customer Ratings:

I love the sleek profile and large display. I love the fact that you can configure each day of the week differently. Four TIME settings are adequate for my needs. The deal breaker is the fact that there are only two temperature settings to choose from for the four time periods. There needs to be at least three for this to be an improvement over a non-programmable device.

I want to set it to hit 70 when my three-year-old is getting his PJs on and settling into bed for the night, have it drop down to 66 while he sleeps, bring it back up to 70 when it is time to get up get dressed and shuttle his sisters off to school, and from 8am-7pm I want that baseboard to stay off, so I'd set it at 50.

With this thermostat I cannot do this. 70 degrees is alright for two of the time periods, but if I set the other one for 66, that 2000 watt baseboard will come on frequently throughout the day. It might stay off if I set it to 60 on all but the coldest of days, but that is way too cold for my tot to sleep.

I don't see how this can be considered a programmable thermostat if I have to fiddle with it everyday to have it save any energy. If I had to do it all over again, I would buy a different model.

We just had two of these installed, I've been testing them for about a month. This is a very good product -works well, and our electrician said it was a breeze to install. Four daily settings is plenty for us. The manual sucks, which is why I only give it 4 stars. I have had to figure A LOT out on my own, and that was frustrating. But now that I've got the hang of it, I really appreciate the features.
