Amazon.com Review Create the ideal indoor climate for the weekend without wasting energy throughout the workweek with this Energy Star-compliant Set & Save Programmable Thermostat from Hunter. Users set the thermostat based on varying household needs for all seven days of the week, for enabling the thermostat to automatically heat up at dawn on a cold morning or to run the air conditioner for longer hours over a summer weekend. By adjusting the thermostat to operate primarily when household members are home, the device reduces wasted energy and minimizes the size of the electric bill in addition to maximizing comfort. The programmable thermostat features a filter monitor and accommodates most gas, oil-fired, and electrical 24-volt and milli-volt furnace and cooling systems. It will not work however with multi- and single- stage heat pumps or 110/220-volt electrical baseboard heating systems. Displayed on an easy to read LCD screen, the thermostat's programmed temperatures range from 45 to 95 degrees F. The thermostat also conveys the room's current temperature from 30 to 99 degrees F. Temperatures above this range are denoted as HI, below as LO. The thermostat will automatically cut off heat operation for room temperatures above 95 degrees F, while interrupting cooling if below 40 degrees F. For sudden weather or schedule changes, users may opt to temporarily override programmed settings for increased comfort. Likewise, a hold option conserves energy while the home dwellers vacation. For general air circulation, a fan switch is installed. The thermostat illuminates a two-stage indicator light to notify low batteries, while lighting a filter-change light to ensure proper and reliable functioning. Two AA 1.5-volt batteries power the thermostat and must be purchased separately. This unit requires assembly upon arrival and purchase of any necessary hardware. Hunter offers a limited one-year warranty for this product. The thermostat weighs 9.6 ounces upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

There are four settings per day [presets]. The programming for weekdays and weekends are done separately. It has two overides: one for temporary bi-bass [from one preset to another] or a vacation overide [until you return home]. The only thing negative about the thermostat is that it doesn't light up for easier viewing in dim light or darkness. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. great product for a great price By Dawn We have 2 furnaces in our house & have an older Hunter model on one furnace & I was searching for a new Hunter for the second furnace. We installed this one at Thanksgiving time & we couldn't be happier. It was a breeze to install & we haven't had any problems with it at all. I think it's a great product & a super price. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Misleading By J. Lane When the description of the thermostat says that it can be programmed for "every day of the week," that does not mean than there can be a separate cooling and heating program for each day of the week. The thermostat can be programmed so that there are separate heating and cooling programs for weekdays (MTWThF) and others for weekends (SaSu). The weekday heating or cooling program must have 4 settings for a 24 hour period and similarly for weekends. For example for either heating or cooling, it can be set for one temperature from 6 AM to 8 AM, another for 8 AM to 5 PM, another from 5 PM to 10 PM, and a fourth from 10 PM to 6 AM. The times at which it switches temperatures can be adjusted. To change from the Heating programs to the Cooling programs, you move a switch from "Heat" to "Cool." If the programming limitations suit your weekly schedule, then you will probably be happy with this thermostat. We have had ours for over a year and have had no problems with it. Installation for our all-electric system was fairly easy. Based on our power bill, the thermostat has saved us money. See all 22 customer reviews...
