I was afraid of my new thermostat.
Okay, afraid may not be the right word. More like intimidated …
at first.
I mean, it’s called the Honeywell Wi-Fi Smart Thermostat with Voice Control. Right there in the name it’s telling me it’s smart. So I automatically assumed it was much smarter than me …
because clearly it’s high tech. And I, well, I defintely skew low-tech …
And then Honeywell tells me this Wi-Fi thermostat listens, learns, and saves. I mean, it’s one thing to be able to change the temperature by a single, multiple, or specific degree with a voice command. Or that I can just say “I’m feeling cold” and it will adjust to make the room one degree warmer …
but it learns too? And saves those things it learns about us?
Turns out it has something called Smart Response that can learn our heating and cooling cycle times to deliver the right temperature, right when we want it.
Yep. It’s true. This Honeywell Wi-Fi Smart Thermostat with Voice Control is so, soooo much smarter than me –even on my smartest of days!
And at his point I was officially afraid to open the box. And set it up on my own …
But you know what? Those fears were completely unfounded. This thermostat is nice. It’s friendly. It easily walked me through the set-up process. The menu is easy to navigate. The Wi-Fi is easy to connect … and controlling the temperature using Honeywell’s free iOS and Android mobile app was easy too. The Voice Control really does work. Oh, and I didn’t even share the best part …
you can change the color of the screen to match your décor!
That’s right, my favorite part of this thermostat is the low-tech part …
😉
So now my biggest challenge is deciding on a color. Blue really does work best with the room’s décor …
And I can customize the blue even further, including background and font color …
But wouldn’t it be fun to coordinate colors with the seasons? Like red and green during the holidays …
Maybe sunny yellow in the summer …
You know what, I think I may just change it daily to match my mood!
And guess what? You, too, can get a thermostat that can change colors to match your mood. Or decor …
or both!
Honeywell wants to give away one of these amazing hi-tech thermostats to one of my readers! Just leave a comment telling me what color scheme you’d choose for your screen …

Definitely the blue!
Since valentines day is coming up I’d go with a pink or white background and red font.
I would probably change th the color to change my mood too! I love this it seems so fun. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Cool thermostat!
Wanted you to know that a League of Angels ad is running on the right side of your site. Pretty skanky looking ad!
I would probably change th the color to change my mood too! I love this it seems so fun. Thanks for the opportunity to win! I. did see the blue in the article you linked and LOVE the red!

I would change the color to coordinate with my outfits! Since it seems easy to do, I think that is what I would do, so that when I point it out to everyone that comes to my house, they will say, “Amazing how the background color matches your outfit!” 😉
If they had pink, I’d like that for my color. The thermostat sounds really cool.
I too would probably change it to suit my mood. After 35 years of marriage, my husband still can’t figure it out, so maybe this thermostat could give him a clue. 🙂
I would go for the green! It’s awesome! Would love to have that thermostat in purple 🙂
These look really cool. I think I would love the yellow one!!! Thanks !
Definitely blue for my house
Either the blue or green. Both are my favorite colors. I could always switch with the seasons also….
Kelly green and hot pink . And I would be very intimated by it also
Very cool(or warm)!! I like the idea of coordinating with the seasons – or switching it up with my mood. Valentine’s Day IS coming up….
Awesome, I love the last screen color, it would look great on my terra cotta walls, count me in!
I could see the Sunny Yellow in my summer home.
Thanks!
I’m kind of partial to anything sunny and green right about now, and I have had my eye on this thermostat for a while now so I’m hopping the raffle copter lands on my number.
Blue, definitely blue!
I love the way the blue stands out. Very easy to read.
Something with red or blue since most of my house is red and cream and blue.
Definately blue with yellow or gold letters for our school colors.
Probably pink and red for Valentine’s Day….then maybe Green for St. Patrick’s Day! Seasonally appropriate colored thermostats that can learn when I get warm or cold…PERFECT! 🙂
The blue definitely because its very clear and easy to read.
I’m digging that light blue color! Sign me up 🙂
Green!! It is my favorite color!!
Ohhh how fun. I would probably pick the second one- but then again I might change it to my mood too.
Is there orange? I’d probably change it monthly, but I’d start with my favorite, orange.
The blue would also match the room where my thermostat is. It’s so cool and comforting.
definitely the yellow, it is snowing weekly here this year and we need to see some sunshine!
I would go with red
Love this…. easy to use and colorful too. What more would you need.
Yellow, definitely yellow. We have a warm color scheme but you know what sticks out like a sore thumb? Our white programmable thermostat with black font. I’d love the option to keep it programmable but actually attractive (vs. the “cool” color scheme of the other currently very popular thermostat).
Oh blue would be great!
I would go with white most of the time, but definitely change for holidays. Pink for DD birthday, red/green for Christmas, yellow for first day of summer, blue and red for July 4th!
Blue looks great!
Awesome! I LOVE the fact that you can control it with your phone! I think I’d go with the blue, too!
Blue! Definately Blue! I vote for blue and my Service Dog, Nate, does too!
I would choose a green background and white font.
I would like something pastel to go with the old lady (oh, excuse me, “English Cottage”) vibe of my house.
Red, gotta be red…..er maybe blue, yes blue. But green’s nice too. Oh man, this is hard!
Yellow Spring Yellow! Can you tell I’m ready?
Well my thermostat is in a black and white room. Pretty boring as far as screen settings go. But I want to see if I can get as smart as one of those thermostats!
Probably blue or white — I’d have to see what looks better!
I told my husband the other day I REALLY wanted a smart thermostat. Think I would program it to blend in when the yellow-beige of the walls. Wouldn’t it be dandy to wake up to a warm room on a cold morning?
probably blue…mine is in a hallway so any color would work so i might change it with the seasons!
I’d definitely do blue! We would love this!
I’d go with a tropical orange 🙂
I would go with the yellow! Live in Michigan need some sunny yellow STAT!!
Oh yes, blue works for me!! I would love this for my home. What a great idea. Di@Cottage-Wishes
I’d love to get one of these! Since I live in Florida I’d go with blue to remind me of the ocean.
My daughter’s favorite color is green, so I would go with that color

I would choose turquoise if that option was available. Or I would choose green.
how awesome is this. How about rainbow? I would love to win this!
Blue with the black font for me!
I think I would choose a different color everyday depending on my mood!
I love the light blue. Very soothing color.
I would go with sunny yellow.
Color me blue!
Oh I’d go with blue in the summer at the lake house and yellow in the fall, and green in December and through the winter to remind me spring is just around the corner! Love it! Pick me!
Dark blue in the summer, red in the winter. Maybe the general color will help us feel warmer/cooler along with the awesome settings
Is gray an option?? I would choose a pale gray or silvery color!
Aqua blue! It would be beautiful!!!
I think I would choose green – this thermostat sure is nice!
I’d choose yellow. It’s such a sunny and happy color. Warming for the home and soul.
Very cool! Like both the blue and yellow 🙂
I would have to set it to a light yellow, it would go with the walls better.
I’d pick the blue! my favorite color!
The sunny yellow would match our yellow living room!

The blue is easier on these 50-something eyes!!!
Ohhhh, I like the blue with black lettering, but would probably change it up just because I can 🙂
I would pick the blue!
I would pick blue.
I would choose Emerald.
Sea glass blue! We have a house near the beach 2 hours away from where we live full time – it would be great to be able to set the temp before we get there and check on the temp while we’re away!
I’d choose the blue.
Since we are about to build our retirement home, we will definitely be needing one with our new HVAC. If I could make it happen, I’d have the color change with the temperature. That way I could know the temperature from across the room by the color on the display. Colder would be blue and green….warmer would go yellow, orange then red. Awesome!
i would use the blue because its my fav color and i think its easiest on everyones eyes in this house haha!
I would choose the blue! The colors are cool. I love the voice recognition, too!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Probably blue and green to make my son happy those are his favorite colors.
i would choose the blue that is the one i like the best
Oh my gosh! The colors are all so cool, but I am a blue person at heart. It looks like the sky and water and I love fishing in fair weather, therefore it must be the blue!!!
Oh my GOSH this is so cool! I would pick green for my screen. Crossing my fingers & toes….
blue!
I would love to win this, we just moved in October to a new to us house and it has an ancient thermostat!!!
Nancy
Well Duh I didn’t tell you the color I would change it too….. a cool shade of blue of course!
Nancy
I think I would have to change it weekly, I would let me mood decide!
