Tools and Hardware Reviews of Honeywell TH8110U1003 Vision Pro 8000 Digital Thermostat
Customer Review: touch screen is flaky
Summary: 1 Stars
Seven day programmability in a usable interface makes this a pretty good thermostat. One can remove it from the wall and programm it holding it one's hand though I rarely do that as the programming is very easy and quick.
I was happy with it initially. But after a few months, the touchscreen started giving problems - sometimes it would respond to touch, sometimes not. I replaced the batteries thinking that may be the problem. It worked after replacing batteries; it sometimes worked anyway so it was hard to tell right away if batteries fixed the problem or not. But the problem remains, the touch screen is very flaky. The backlight comes on for no reason and stays on at arbitrary times. I am replacing it with a push button based model.
Customer Review: Vision Pro Digital Thermostat is Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
After looking at every thermostat made, I purchased this one from Plumbing World at a very reasonable price compared to what's available from the chain stores. It arrived within a few days just as pictured on the site.
I literally opened the package, took three minutes to read the instructions which don't make much sense as far as wiring goes unless you're an electrician. But the diagrams for dummies were fairly clear. It took 45 seconds to remove my old worthless thermostat, 2 minutes to install the new back plate, 1 1/2 minutes to put the proper color wire in the proper slots and 1/2 minute to put the thermostat in place. Done, simple, worked immediately.
3 minutes spent reading the instructions on how to program the thermostat prepared me to spend the next 5 minutes easily programming the unit. A few of the higher functions make no sense if you don't install heaters and A/C professionally and are best left at the factory presets and work great.
It couldn't have been easier or simpler and it works great!!!! It's a dream. I don't know if it'll save money (it should) but it sure is nice to have it warm when you want it so and saving money when you aren't home. I'm going to buy another to replace the thermostat downstairs too.
Granted, installation may not be so easy if your home isn't relatively new, if your heating system is not mainstream or other permutations. In this case you may need someone with a little bit of electrical expertise. But I have no electrical knowledge except a little common sense and this was a breeze.
Customer Review: Honeywell Vision Pro Digital Thermostat
Summary: 5 Stars
I received this product within a couple days of ordering. It was easy to install even though the directions make it look a bit confusing. The touch screen is great and is easy to navigate. Overall, I am very happy with this product. I only wish I could change the time on how long the backlight stays lit.Customer Review: Deceiving picture
Summary: 2 Stars
I was very disappointed to find out that the Honeywell Pro 8000 that I bought did not have the humidistat. In the picture it appears to have it. I didn't realize there was no humidistat until it was installed and then not able to be returned. I ordered the product I needed through another site. It was a costly error.Customer Review: DO NOT BUY FROM COMFORTKING!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
"Horrible seller, do not buy from COMFORTKING!!!!! There was nothing comfortable about this transaction!!! I spent hours emailing and calling him, he never returned my calls, item arrived only because I emailed like 15 times. I ordered on October 6th and did not get it until October 23, nothing takes 2.5 weeks to ship. There is no instructions for the installation in what he sent me. 100% Horrible!"
