What Customers Are Saying
The room sensors are generally viewed as a valuable addition to the smart thermostat system, allowing for improved temperature monitoring and balancing across different rooms. Many find the sensors easy to set up and integrate well with the system. However, some users have experienced issues with unreliable performance, connectivity problems, and false occupancy detection. There are also complaints about the high individual cost of the sensors. Overall, the sensors are considered a useful enhancement that improves the thermostat's functionality, but there is room for improvement in terms of reliability and cost-effectiveness.

Would RecommendSuper easy to setup. I bought the lite version with no sensors since it was covered under a utility rebate, the sensors are what make make the magic work. Invest in enough to monitor your home for comfort and energy savings. Admittedly, they are expensive; we all know the real cost is far less and that these are a profit center for Ecobee. That is why I rated value 3 stars. The benefits are in comfort and energy savings (direct result of sensor).

Essential add on for the ecobee!
Would RecommendI used it every day for 2 years with my ecobee 3 and I couldn’t live without it now!

Life changing
Would RecommendThe remote sensor is revolutionary. Have you ever been on the other side of your house from the thermostat and found it was 10 degrees different than where the thermostat is? YES! The best part about the Ecobee3 is that it's remote sensor (code name = lil'bee) can be put in that area of your house where your old thermostat used to neglect. Then the Ecobee3 is so versatile, you can set up when you want it to care about the temperature in that room. So no use heating your bedroom all day if you on...

Ecobee vs Nest sensore. Better for big buildings
Would RecommendI needed the ability to monitor temperatures in a 4 story building. While I like Nest from a user interface standpoint, its temperature sensors has less than half the capabilities as Ecobee and at more than quadruple the cost. Ecobee with the temperature sensor has learn the buildings heat dynamics and keeps the heating bills to the minimum while keeping it comfortable for each floor.

Simple to install. Nice little product
Would RecommendSuper easy to install and monitor via app. Really help with temperature control across big room or multiple rooms. Still not sure if I would use many of these once the switch+ becomes a sensor. Need to evaluate price vs. value vs. features of the two (switch+, sensor).

Paired without any effort
Would RecommendWhen I pulled the battery tab, the sensor instantly paired with my Ecobee thermostat. It's simple and works perfectly.

Ecobee Room Sensor with Built-In WiFi
Would RecommendWe built a house and it has an ecobee thermostat. It is located in our bedroom, that leaves the rest of the house warmer or cooler. I got these ecobee 2-pack sensors at Lowes and turned them on, (that took only one minute to do both). With one in my office and one in the living room comfort is where ever you happen to be. They sense temp and movement so the occupied rooms get comfortable as the house temp is more even.

Great addition to my existing ecobee system!
Would RecommendI have been waiting for so long to get these room sensor within reasonable price so that I won't feel bad of overspending. I already have one sensor that came with my ecobee3 and getting this for 50% off was what I was looking for. The battery usually runs for a year and the sensors are providing accurate room temperature. happy with the purchase.

Excellent addition to Ecobee thermostat
These temperature sensors not only transmit temperature, but also whether the room is occupied. They come with a stand, but also can be mounted on the walls. They use CR2032 3V Lithium cell battery, which lasts a year or so. The battery is pretty easy to replace, and it is widely available. These sensors can help you with getting the temperature you desire in the rooms you occupy rather than the hallway, where the thermostats are usually mounted.

Good product
Would RecommendI really like the room sensors. They help my three level house stay warm. I bought 4 (2- 2 packs) during Thanksgiving and have spread them on 3 floors. I definitely noticed a difference in the temperatures in the house. My basement does not feel as cold. I gave this product 4 stars as one of the sensors did work out of the box and I had contact Ecobee for replacement.

Easy to install
Would RecommendBought the two back a few days ago and took all of 2 minutes to setup and get them working!
From Ecobee
Works Great But...
Would RecommendI just got my ecobee four and I bought some additional sensors… They work really well but I feel like they are lacking in some available functionality. I don’t like the initial set up because you have to stand next to the thermostat. If sitting at multiple, to revent running back-and-forth around the house to the thermostat, you need to set them up and note which serial number has been assigned to which part of your house and set them up all at once. Then after handling them, the temperature ...

Works well and easy to setup
Would RecommendThe ecobee sensors allow me to see the temperature and motion in my Apple Home app. It also balances the temperature amount different rooms. I love it.
From Ecobee
So easy to install.
Would RecommendMy thermostat (ecobee 3 lite) is in the hallway of our house. We have zone heating that includes the hallway/living room/kitchen/dining room. We get much better heating now that we have 2 additional sensors to balance the heat. The sensors were ridicuously easy to add to the system. Took them out of the box, held them up to the ecobee 3 lite and was done!
