The schedule on this thermostat sucks super confusing
@cryptonator1988 on YouTube
I don't want a smart thermostat to create a heating and cooling schedule. I want a standard thermostat thank you.

Setup quirks & things to watch for

Not complaints — practical notes from owners that didn't affect the score.

After any configurations are done via the touch screen, the temperature reported spikes 3-4 degrees and then will slowly ramp back down to the real temperature reading.

When I turned on advanced reporting on my T6 the humidity dithered between 30% and 31% every minute or so.

I typically install Bosch systems with Honeywell T6 Pros or the T10. The T10 has the advantage as it can use internet weather for the dual fuel compressor lockouts. The T6 Pro needs a hard wired outdoor temperature sensor. Both have app connectivity, the T10’s interface is better than the T6 Pro.
