Tools and Hardware Reviews of Lux Products TX1500E-010 Smart Temp Programmable ThermostatCustomer Review: CONSISTENT HEAT!! Summary: 5 Stars
Purchased this LUX 1500E thermostat after stressing with a Hunter thermostat for over three years purchased at our local Wal-world. We had to contact Hunter shortly after we installed it, as it did not work properly, but the replacement that was sent to me didn't work at all! It is SO NICE now to have a thermostat that does what the settings tell it to do, and not just do what it wants to do at any given moment. The programming on this thermostat is so easy compared to what I had, once you learn the sequence of buttons. The real nice thing about this thermostat, is that it is accurate with our other thermometers in the house, something that the other thermostat was not. You can adjust the delay on this thermostat, whether you want the heat to come on more often and maintain a constant heat, or whether you want the delay longer, where it cools and heats less often, but you have more of a temperature spread. However you like it, you can set it! I like the humidity button, as it gets mighty dry up north in the winter and I can monitor our humidifier. The installation was very easy for me as I only have a two wire system. But, the wire contact mounts were superior to the Hunter thermostat, as that is where part of my problem with the Hunter was. I could not secure my wires from the furnace to the thermostat solidly enough and sometimes the thermostat would turn the furnace on and sometimes not. And once I corrected this loose wiring problem with this Hunter thermostat, it still decided that sometimes it would work and sometimes it would not. How very frustrating!! I spent money needlessly on furnace repairs that could find nothing wrong, other than to say, "We think it's your thermostat." Yes, it was my thermostat and this LUX is a very nice replacement with a Three Year Warranty. It should work well and worry-free for the same time period that I had to stress with that old thermostat!!
I do have one complaint regarding the free shipping offered by Amazon.com. I live in northern Ohio and ordered this item the end of one week and was informed that I would not receive the item for 10 days from that date. I monitored the shipping progress and on a Monday, the item was shipped and in Cincinnati, OH. Now even by USPS standards, Cincinnati is not that far from northern Ohio! I was not supposed to receive the item until the following Monday, but it did arrive on the previous Friday. Still too long from Cincinnati!! I have since joined Prime, to get two day shipping. So far, that has worked well.
I still give the Thermostat a 5 star rating, as it is an excellent product and was fairly priced, and they can't help that free shipping is snail shipping!
