Got it because it was cheap and it had good reviews. and for most people I think it will be just fine, installation was a little hassle because the manual never tells you what the signal lines are. and i also needed to add dc adapter to it to run since my thermostat only had 2 wires.
Got it all working late saturday night(started it pretty late) was impressed were able to respond to my email on a saturday night.
my big complaint is the only programming and remote control is via their web page. if they ever go out of business, or stop the service the unit will be useless except as a dumb thermostat. it also communicates via https (SSL) so its not easy to snoop on it and write my own. Contacting support, they told me that there is not enough interest in local control and they fear it will add to confusion getting it setup. they did say if they ever make a more hackable unit in the future they would keep me in mind, which is nice but useless to me.
Sadly their website does not support may of the thing I would want, (so I may have to learn web scraping or other tricks) what i want is the ability to graph my inside temp (especially when its set back, so i can see where the sweet spot is, where i use the least energy reheating the home but dont waste a bunch during the day.
Also i would like to be able to from my local network kick it into away mode. or im at hoem mode base upon my alarm status. (which i can read form my local network)
If they offer some expanded website options and or local network reading/polling/changing, I think this would be a fantastic product for me.

This wifi thermostat is everything that one could want in a programmable device. The CyberStat is easy to set up, with just a challenge or two with the wifi setup. See tip at the end of this review. The CyberStat is small, nice looking, and the directions are actually in English with no Chinese mistranslations. It took me all of 5 minutes to install it, thanks to the fantastic tech support by email. More later. I am only using it for heat on a new furnace so the connections with just a two wire system were simple. A power brick is needed for two-wire systems to supply the power... virtually any brick will do. A tip on wifi setup: take down all the info on the inside cover since it will be needed during registration of the device. As to tech support by email and by phone, simply put, there is NONE better. If all companies ran this way, we consumers would have no complaints. Emails are answered within hours, not within days or ignored completely. Phone calls are actually answered and tech support is clear and precise. I love this thermostat and the company making it.

I see no reason to need a fancy touchscreen display on a thermostat, like the other models. What does one need in the hallway other than basic controls and a readout? Programming a schedule is a breeze over the WiFi from my recliner! The WiFi interface works on any phone with a browser and web access. I control it from my Nexus 7, iPod Touch and PC as well. It's nice to be able to turn the heat up on my way home rather than programming a guessed ETA into the thermostat every time I leave.
