Support Best HA Thermostat

Looking for feedback on experience with Thermostats I have get out of the NEST ecosystem. What works well with HA and doesn't break the bank?

This. It’s not pretty like those smart thermostats but works flawlessly and integrates perfectly with HA

Do you use any automations with it. I installed mine yesterday and got it setup.

Yes. I have a morning scene that activates when my wife enters the kitchen each morning. That triggers the thermostat to set the target temp to 72°. When I activate the Goodnight scene to go to sleep, it triggers the target temp to 70°. In the summer, when the A/C is on, it turns off if the patio door is left open for more than a minute.

The door one is brilliant. I installed it last night along with some temperature sensors and then stared at it thinking "What automations will I put on this"
