This is a great fully programmable thermostat that operates from line voltage (no batteries needed) that I could find online. It has a cool package with hidden buttons for the user interface which is also intuitive. The button on the outside illuminates the backlight with a nice green glow. Has day, date, time and temperature reading on the display, as well as the state of the thermostat - home, away, sleeping, and awake. Drillspot had the best price and delivery was in 1 day. I couldn't believe it when it came the day after placing the order!
Pros: Fully programmable. Operates from line voltage (240 VAC). Perfect for baseboard heaters.
Cons: Installation instructions do not show wiring schematic, but it is shown on the back of the thermostat.
Best so far

I found it easy to wire, probably due to the fact that I was replacing a Honeywell thermostat. I did have to read the instructions for programming a few times to get that part right though. Seems to be very accurate, even in sub zero weather. This is the 3rd thermostat I have tried over the years and is by far the best. I have it in my master bedroom.
Pros: accurate, stylish, easy to read
Cons: needs better programming instructions
Works perfectly!

I don't have much more to say than what has already been said: the thermostat works perfectly as advertised. Plus, the thermostat was drop-shipped quickly from a Grainger warehouse just a few miles from my house. I'm not sure how it happened, but I ordered on a Saturday and I received it on the following Monday!

I bought several different thermostats and returned them all because they weren't compatible with my Cadet heating system. Finally I found this one which was the best and easiest to install. I have a 4 wire system and install took a total of 15 minutes. This system is especially nice if you had a standard thermostat before because the mounting holes line right up with a vertical thermostat and bolted right in. Oh yeah, really fast shipping!!!Good luck!
Pros: sleek,modern,easy to program,good looks
Cons: works so well I have to buy 3 more
Excellent thermostat

Love the 7-day programmability and the 4 time zones each day. Easy to program and the backlit display which displays the current room temperature is a key feature**Important - This is a 4 wire thermostat designed for 240 amp wiring used for electric baseboard heating. If you only have 2 wires you have to order a different model.
Pros: Easy to install, programming pertty straight forward.
Cons: The little button get stuck down sometimes which is easily fixed and doesn't effect the operation of the thermostat
Best value, hands down!

This is a great deal first off, because Drillspot has the lowest price on the net, and I received it in 1 business day!
Honeywell is a trustable brand and this device has good reviews everywhere. After installing it, I have to agree it is not only very attractive but 7-day programmable is great and it can be completely turned off when you are away unlike analog thermostats.
Much more accurate than our old analog unit and it displays the current room temp which is handy. The backlight is green so it matches our GFCI's and home security system, too! We will be getting 3 more soon for the rest of the home! Thanks Drillspot!
Pros: Easy install, clear instructions, attractive design, intuitive function, energy-saving
Cons: Seriously cannot think of ANY cons

Unbelievable energy savings. Not only is it programmable it has 5 intensities of heat in 20% increments which improves savings that much more. My old thermostats were on or off and had to guess what temperature they were set at (Hi, Low and "comfort zone"). Once I concurred the wiring of the first one it was a breeze for the rest. Now I have 13 and my winter energy bills are significantly lower paying for the cost of the units 10 fold
Pros: energy savings!!!!
Cons: wiring
Best thermostat for baseboard heaters

It took me a little while to install because I am not an electrician and this t-stat has 4 wires and my old one had only 2. The preprogrammed settings were perfect for me, I didn't have to change anything. Check with your energy company for rebate checks. I have sent in receipts that have given me $50 in rebates for the 2 units that I have purchased.
Pros: Good looking unit
Cons: hidden controls confuse my roommates

Electric heat thermostat

We have electric heat throughout our house, a pain turning up & down thermostats (10 in all in house, morning/night). These are 4 wire & after the wiring up the 1st one, have installed 6 now in house. Can work with 3 wires or 4 (haven't tried 2 yet). Programming is easy & flexible so you can adjust the default settings. I'd thoroughly recommend these for anyway with electric baseboard heaters & I await my savings in heating costs...which is one of the key drivers here.
Pros: Easy to program, Neat looking, Modern
Cons: Initial wiring, once conquered, easy to repeat
