Looking to provide zone control these thermostats provide an economical and practical alternative to channelling walls. Functionality is on the better end of the scale. With the ability to switch between 5+1+1 and 7 day mode allowing for simplified programming. In addition the units have a calibration feature not present in many other units. The only gripe is in the wiring of the receiver. Although fitted with a baseplate this is not where the wiring is conducted and so can be a bit fiddly if replacing an existing controller with short tails. In addition if the wiring is not from the rear then the spacing at the base of the unit makes a single cable (for unit power and control) a tight fit.

The instruction booklet could be more accurate and helpful Pairing the stat with the receiver was impossible from the instructions booklet I had to ring the help line and did it in less than 30 seconds with three instructions from the adviser who I think spends all his day helping people pair the sets.

Functionally excellent and programming is reasonably simple. I have only 2 complaints. First instead of the normal thermostat system of mounting and wiring the base plate before plugging in the thermostat, with this one you have to wire to the back of the receiver unit before mounting. (I had to extend the wires to make it possible). Second there are only 2 programming options - Individual days or 5/2. There is no option for all 7 days the same so you have to use 5/5 and programme everything twice. It's only been installed a couple of weeks so I cannot comment on reliability

Easily installed - providing you have access to a permanent live connection, which is often not the case with mechanical or even wired digital thermostats remotely sited from the boiler. Range seems good for even a largish property so the receiver can be sited close to the wiring centre. Handily the receiver unit is pre-paired with the transmitter so set up is especially straightforward. Can't comment on reliability, but quality seems fine and the manufacturer gives a five-year warranty. I liked the couple of extra features over the old 500RF model (boost setting especially.

If you just want something that's easy to connect and use then this is ideal. No issues converting from a fixed wall mounted thermostat. Receiver wired next to boiler and was already pared with the main unit (if they are bought as a 1 box item) so no issues there. Programming either in the default 5 days, 2 days or, by resetting in installer mode, can be done as each day individually. Both with 6 time/temp changes if required each day.
