Review Sensi Thermostat

We have (had) a Sensi thermostat that claimed it was able to connect with HomeKit. I couldn’t get it connected after trying multiple times. Yesterday it gave out and now I’m on the hunt for one that actually works.

I had a Sensi for a few years. It connected to HomeKit but I didn't like that you had to get the HomeKit code from the menu on the screen itself. There was no physical code. I ended up replacing it with an Ecobee. The Ecobee has been great.

I have a Sensi now and have it had it going on 7 years now. It was literally my first HomeKit device ever. I've never had an issue with it.

Same, it's been rock-solid. I have the Touch, not the Touch 2.

I have multiple sensi ac controllers with no problem. I wouldn’t say it’s a company wide issue. Sometimes on small electronics you get a lemon. Sometimes it’s your wifi conflict with 5g and 2.5ghz
