When a debate on air pollution or global warming ensues, we are always quick to point our finger on gas-guzzling SUVs. As a matter of fact, the average household pollutes more than an average car taking into consideration that most electricity provider power plants run on natural gas or coal. We are not surprised by this because most of us are afraid to change our lifestyle. Household appliances and electronics are no small factor. Though most us would not want to live without refrigerators and laptops or an HDTV but we can live with them in a more responsible and ethical way by using eco friendly appliances. The rising cost of fuel and electricity mean that energy saving appliances will grow more and more cost effective over the next few years. If everyone of us could use eco-friendly appliances, I guess in one way or another it could make a huge difference in reducing the world’s amount of water and energy consumed and lessens pollution. It can help keep the earth green for years and for generations to come.

Excellent Value
I chose the Lux over Honeywell for their value and design. The display is large and simple to read. Menu controls are self explanatory, and installation was a breeze when I replaced my old "Chase" thermostat. The only drawbacks I can see are the flimsy lower door and the not-so intuitive temperature adjustment. Instead of the competitor's simple up and down button, you will have to press the display temperature in order to find out what your set temp is or to display the scroll bar. Other than that, the unit is attractive and elegant.

THE Thermostat
If you are shopping for a thermostat that works great and it's easy to use you are in the right place. This thermostat delivers what promises. If you want to change the day while programming just tap on the day. If you want to change the time of the day, tap on it. Someone wrote that it was hard to program....that's because it has several programs:D If you select the preprogrammed settings you may find it chilly in your home.

Very Good Programmable Thermostat
This thermostat was very easy to install and program and is doing its job well. The other Amazon reviews were very helpful in alerting me so some of its small programming quirks.

My system is very simple: a forced-hot-water heating system with the thermostat controlling the circulator pump. I took off the old mechanical programmable thermostat, connected the two wires to this thermostat following the clear instructions in the manual, screwed the new thermostat in place, and programmed in the desired schedule. The whole process took less than an hour (including a thorough reading the manual).

My only complaint about this thermostat is that it does not have a vacation feature that allows one to set an override temperature for a specified period of time (for example, remain at 55 degrees for 13 days and 7 hours while I'm away on vacation or 60 degrees for 8 hours while I'm out for the day).

Very Easy To Use
I haven't used a lot of other thermostats like this, but this is quite easy to use. It takes a while to program it...but daily use is SO very easy that it's worth it. I really recommend it. It looks very nice.

Works fine - installation literally a snap
Was very easy to install except that I had to go on-line to verify which terminals to connect in my VERY old house. It would be helpful if the instruction sheet would identify the terminals by function (actual descriptive words) as well as with the code letters (which do make sense once one understands what the functions are). But this overall was a very minor issue. The ability to physically separate the "computer" from the terminal board and literally snap them together once wires have been connected and the computer programmed is a major advantage. This makes the wire connections accessible without struggling and leads to a very quick and easy installation. A large auxiliary backing plate was included to cover any gaping holes in the wall from previous thermostats and I initially used this but ultimately decided installation looked neater without. The plate is simply trapped between the terminal board and the wall, so it's very easy to change one's mind on this without having to fill screw holes etc. Have used the thermostat now for several months and it has worked flawlessly and is very easy to program.
