As someone who’s been reviewing smart home gadgets for years, I’ve become very familiar with the devices everyone always goes for – and the ones they tend to avoid. The best smart bulbs and best smart speakers are easy wins, but when it comes to the best smart thermostats, it’s a completely different story.
That hesitation usually comes down to people assuming smart thermostats involve interfering with boilers or existing heating controls – which, to be fair, is often true. However, what many don’t realise is that there are smart thermostats that are easy to install and control, and ideal for renters or anyone nervous about committing to more invasive smart tech.
