I never want a smart thermostat, and nobody is ever going to be able to convince me that purchasing one of these smart thermostats is a good idea.
- I am going to use a regular thermostat until the day that I die, and I know that I will be completely happy with my old thermostat.
Why don’t I want a smart thermostat? I simply just don’t think that I could ever use a smart thermostat due to its price. I know that there are some people that are simply nervous when it comes to newer technology, but I have absolutely no problem with technology. I think trying to fight technology is silly. It is simply the way that the world is headed, and no amount of tradition is ever going to change that. However, I think that a smart thermostat is completely unnecessary. A regular thermostat costs nearly a quarter of the price of a smart thermostat, and I simply can find any reason to justify the purchase of a thermostat that expensive Sure, I know that these thermostats have features that a normal thermostat doesn’t have, but I honestly don’t think that these features justify the crazy price of these thermostats. Sure, I might be able to adjust the temperature of the thermostat with my phone when I am not at home or don’t feel like walking up to the thermostat, but that doesn’t mean that I need to spend hundreds of dollars for that feature. It would be much cheaper to just walk up to my thermostat and adjust it. I think that people that would waste money on these thermostats have made bad choices.
