 Didn't Make it Through the Warenty Period August 30, 2006

I bought this thermostat from ACE Hardware. It installed easy enough, but quit functioning correctly after 6 months.
The A/C comes on when programed, but it won't shut off. You can stop the A/C manually, but who needs a programable thermostat that you have to continualy get up and adjust.
I'm shopping for another model.

This is a remarkably user friendly product that went from box to completed installation and programming in 30 minutes. The most difficult part of installation was removing it from the clamshell container. Simple and easy to use. Appears well made and has 3 year warranty. Can be easily removed from its base for programming. Accurate, reproducible temperature control. A bargain.

I bought this thermostat a few months ago. It was easy to install, but that is about the only good thing I can say about this unit. Now that the weather has gotten cold in New York, I set the date and time, and programed the thermostat, but it constantly loses the date, time, day of the week, and once or twice a day it resets itself to the factor setting of 62 degrees. As soon as I find a good replacement, this unit is history!
Lux Smart Temp Programmable Thermostat TX500 July 25, 2007

I purchased this item for my home and I am very happy with it. It was easy to install and is easy to use. Despite some mixed reviews of this item, I was extremely happy with this purchase. I now intend to purchase one to replace every old thermostat in my home and vacation condo. I have read in many articles about saving energy and saving the environment, that purchasing a programmable thermostat is one of the easiest ways to do both. I look forward to saving money on my utility bills and helping the environment in the process. It's a win-win situation for everyone!

We purchased a TX500B about a year ago for our forced-air system.
We have had no problems with buttons not responding, nor lost settings. The one "problem" has to do with how the "hold" feature works when required for an extended period (greater than the end of the current time period). Our unit came with supplemental instructions (an insert) on how to do this. It works, but is less than intuitive.
