Reviews of White-Rodgers 1F80-0471 Digital 5/1/1 and 5/2 Day Programmable

Customer Ratings:

It's a nice product but it requires too many sub-menu navigations to get it started. The blue light is nice but its intensity should be adjustable.

This is a Emmerson brand not a White Rodgers. The wall mounting plate did not engage the actual unit tightly and it felt as though it would fall off the wall. I am also dissapointed that I had to pay almost $10 in shipping just to return it.

Honest reviews on White-Rodgers 1F80-0471 Digital 5/1/1 and 5/2 Day Programmable

This thermostat was easy to install and program, and worked as advertised nearly a year. EXCEPT…3 times, several months apart, its clock reset to 12am for no apparent reason. After the 2nd time I replaced the batteries, even though they'd tested good, but it happened again a few months later. I reluctantly concluded the thermostat was defective. Fortunately it was still within Amazon's guarantee period so I contacted the seller and returned it.

I should mention that (before I realized I could still return the unit to the seller) I tried contact the manufacturer via their web forms several times with no success. To be honest I didn't try calling I've wasted enough lifespan waiting for "the next available representative".

So, despite having a 5-year warranty and a large number of positive reviews, I can't recommend this thermostat. I do however commend the seller, Plumbing Planet, for standing behind what they sell.

After doing several weeks of research and reading 100s of reviews and comments, this was my choice. Installed easily in my home (single stage heat pump). I was so happy that I purchased an additional unit and installed it in my son's home (single stage air conditioner with gas heat). This thermostat works in either configuration with a simple switch change on the back of the unit. I'm surprised there aren't 100s or even 1000s of reviews on the thermostat because, IMHO, it is simply the best choice.
