Honestly, just the base Nest thermostat works well enough. Not as fancy as their "learning" thermostat, but you can access it from anywhere to change temps or set schedules, I like the simple rundown it gives for month by month usage comparisons, and it's not overly complicated to setup and use.

I got mine free from my power company, but it's usually under $100 at most retailers.

I've heard my state just approved some type of discount program but they don't know why it will take affect essentially giving $50 off nest thermostats. Didn't know if there were others worth looking into.

Google nest or Hive are the two best, I’m a gas and heating engineer (UK) that’s all I Fit
Your customers are stuck between two "smart" devices... Not much of a choice there.

For non-smart devices this thread may interest some:

Honeywell T4R is not bad I guess, but yes, most people want smart stats, even older customers are moving towards it ;)

I'm not smart, not dumb. I use myself as the thermometer. I run around totally nakey around the house, so if I feel Freezing 🥶 Cold, I simply turn up the thermostat, And of course likewise, if I feel Burning 🔥 Hot, I turn the damn thing OFF ! :angry:

Thus, I'm saving :hrth: :toot::teach::grog: 👉 [💰] 👈 :grog::teach::toot::hrth: :D Duh
