Good with awkward cover
on January 6, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
The mist is cool, adjustment range is good, and unit is relatively quiet. The only complaint is the shape and lack of obvious orientation to the tank make it awkward to handle. The owl eyes are a slotted cover over the tank that collects a lot of condensation and is a little annoying to deal with but these are very minor things. It has been working well in the nursery.

Very nice to have a physical switch

I have not used it as standalone set, but instead integrated it into an existing hue system. Switch works well. Just pick a scene in the hue app for it to control. Picking up an extra bulb for not much more money is great. Been really nice to have a physical control for running in a room without your phone.

Solid so far

I have mostly Philips bulbs but also a few GE Links. So far, everything has worked as expected. The only problem I had was in transferring my old hub settings to the new one. Kept hanging on a firmware update for the new hub. This occurred within the same few days that Philips released a firmware update to block new uncertified 3rd party bulbs and then changed their mind. So I waited a day and tried again and everything worked fine. I figured it must have been related to expecting a firmware update that was no longer on the servers. Other than that, everything has worked as expected. HomeKit integration is nice.

Great thermostat

After installing a new Trane HVAC dual system, I compared the top smart thermostats to replace the standard programmable Trane unit. I wanted a thermostat I could not only program a schedule and fully control my system properly, but I could access remotely and include a few smart features such as auto away and smart home integration (preferably homekit). This is the only one I found that checks all the boxes.
I knew the ecobee included a remote sensor and that I could add more. Neat, but I did not expect to really utilize that feature with a smaller home. With a 9 month old, I planned to place the sensor in his room and expected the ecobee to average with the control unit reading. However, I found this more useful than I first imagined. For programming/scheduling, you create different setting groups such as Day, Away, Sleep, etc. and then schedule them for the days/times you want. You are able to set which sensors you want you used in each of these groups. So for Sleep, I use only the sensor in the baby's room. For Daytime, I use the average of both. The sensor also includes occupancy detection so you can have it "follow" you around the house if your house is large enough. It can also switch to Away when it detects no one at the thermostat or a sensor for some time.
In summary, the ecobee3 is everything I hoped for and a little more.
