Not great for home automation
Customer Rating
3.0
I picked up the Home to try it out for home automation features. It would have required a lot of adjustments to support my large number of WeMo items. That being said. The voice was the most "human" that I have heard so far. It has a great amount of information for asking it questions.

Decent trackball.
Comfortable ergonomic fit. No hand cramps when using it.

Batteries are decent quality… Packaging is HORRIBLE!
It is nearly impossible to get these batteries out of the plastic casing. It required a good pair of scissors and a lot of elbow grease.

Images for this Review
(click to see full-size image)
I got everything setup in about an hour.
I had to add the power switcher to my wiring in the furnace (included with the Ecobee), to get everything running properly with the wire design in my home.
Once you get that setup, the next step is swapping out the old with the new. Make sure you use the provided flags to mark the wires as you remove them form the old thermostat. Then you just mount the back panel and connect the wires to the correct terminals.Then mount the Ecobee to the back panel on your wall. The Ecobee starts up and asks questions about the setup of your HVAC system. It is just a few settings to adjust and you are ready to go.
Takes a little time for the software to get ready to go once you set the parameters.
Then you just add the Sensor to the room you are in most often and everything is ready.
Now comes the fun stuff…
Crazy easy to setup and use the Ecobee app on the iPhone. You can control everything from anywhere with your mobile device. (props for whomever decided to make a vacation feature to control light use when you are out of town).

If you have an Amazon Echo, you are in luck! You can also adjust your HVAC by speaking the commands out loud!
All in all I am very happy with the ease of installation and the features and benefits of this thermostat.

Pioneer - 700W 5.2-Ch. 4K Ultra HD and 3D Pass-Through A/V Home Theater Receiver - Black
This Pioneer Elite VSX-45-K receiver features Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for wireless connectivity. Includes HDMI 4K Ultra HD and 3D pass-through technologies for compatibility with 3D TVs, Blu-ray players and gaming consoles and 4K Ultra HD TVs.
Great Receiver
Customer Rating
4.0
This receiver is a decent buy, at the price. Everything about it is solid. Except for one thing.
The system does not auto switch to the type of audio signal that is being received. When I am playing a movie that is Dolby Digital 5.1 and the sound was set to Dolby pro Logic, it will not automatically switch over to the proper setting.
A couple button presses and all is good, but my other Pioneer elite automatically changes depending on received audio source.

Can I use this to join a hotel WiFi signal and then connect devices and game consoles to that?
no. You would need a router that support WISP operation modes. (WISP Wireless internet service provider)
