    ecobee4 Smart Thermostat with Built-In Alexa, Room Sensor Included

    • The internet provider said it was limiting to go to static IP address and why was I letting a 250 dollar device dictate things when they are working for everything else
    • Other than the static IP address for my problem of not being able to connect at all, there seems to be no other workaround right now
    • They always apologize (insincerely in my opinion) and say they will fix the problem - next you get a an email saying the trouble ticket is closed - but the issue has not been addressed
    • When there was continued failure to connect to home WiFi, the Rep told me to call my internet provider and get them to issue a static IP address rather than dynamic IP.
    • However the sound quality is tinny - nowhere as good as from a Dot, and it seems to start by itself some times
    • Good customer support as he had to call the company a couple of times during the installation process
    • Setting them do as much good as pushing the "close door" button in an elevator, and I'm convinced they are added to give the illusion of the feature actually working and using them
    • However, I must say the Alexa feature does not work quite as well as with my Echo Dot
    • This thermostat is as close to perfect as you can get
    • The replacement thermostats proved there was no wiring faults as they worked just fine when installed.
    • However, I must say the Alexa feature does not work quite as well as with my Echo Dot
    • When I need humidity in my house, my thermostat will turn on the furnace fan and the humidifier to add humidity without heat... as well as with heat, if needed
    • so it knows what’s going on outside your home as well as
    • Functionally its great as it’s basically exactly the same as the ecobee 3 but the Alexa portion has horribly implemented
    • Not as amazing as I'd hoped
    • The ecobee 4’s Alexa only supports a limited list of Alexa commands
    • Have not decided to connect and lose function(s) or sell.
