Very tempted by this seeing as the Thermostat on its own is £149.99 through Prime and I have already preordered a Dot and an Echo.
Some blurb on the Netatmo which is highly reviewed:
A product of the connected lifestyle range is the Netatmo Thermostat which enables you to control your heating, remotely.
Smart heating in your home
The Netatmo Thermostat can set a program to reflect your living habits. With its Auto-Adapt function, it predicts the start of the heating periods depending on your household insulation and the outdoor temperature.
Energy saver
For each month of the year, your personal Energy Savings Report lets you track your home’s energy consumption and helps you to schedule your heating more effectively. This could mean that the Netatmo Thermostat will save up to 37% of your household energy consumption, reducing carbon footprint too.*
Energy in graph form
With the dedicated Netatmo app, you’ll be able to monitor your past energy consumption. Both indoor temperature and boiler (gas, fuel or wood) activity is recorded continuously in the app, which can be downloaded (for free) from the App store, Google play or Windows Phone Store.
Seamless design
The simple and minimalist design by Starck means that the Netatmo Thermostat will blend seamlessly into any home decor. And with five interchange colours to choose from, you’ll be able to find one which suits.

Yes, but is it as good as the Netatmo? I'm really tired of those cheap Chinese wannabe fakes.

I could be wrong but don't think this will control a separate hot water tank in addition to the heating? Those looking to be able to control both will need evohome, nest 3g, or a hive?

Or in my case tado which also does geolocation and switches on the heating when it knows people are on their way home. I never touch the settings now - it just works at maximum efficiency. I'm not sure any others manage that quite as well.
It does the water on a schedule.
I've never really understood the need to have heating and water control at your fingertips except on rare occasions when it's suddenly too cold or the tank runs out or something.

Unless you are zoning your heating with summat like the Evohome, this claim simply isn't true.

Netatmo or nest? I think the nest looks nicer and seems to have more third party support (IFTTT etc)

Netatmo has IFTTT to work with dot/echo surely?

Some one told me Nest on another recent Amazon thread think it was the Amazon Echo thread.

Not sure hot water control is necessary. Lot of people now have combi boilers
I have a standard boiler with a tank and hot water just comes on twice a day and if im away I turn it off. Water stays warm for 48 hours in tank anyway so coming on twice a day probably only burns for around 5 min if it's not been used just to top the temperature up.

For me personally, if I'm spending approx £150 I want a kit that will cater for my whole system without having to keep effectively two programmers in order to control heating and hot water.
Not taking anything away from the deal though, If I had a combi I'd be all over this.

Netatmo. The company I work for fits it with every new heating system. We used to fit Tado but had installation problems with some Tado and switched to Netatmo.
