Review on 🌑 Black ecobee Lite Smart Thermostat by Dale Sundet

At first I liked my new Ecobee thermostat. But now I realized that they are forcing me to use a 'feature' called eco+ and thereby take control of my thermostat settings! You can only use the iOS app if you agree to the use of eco+. This is to allow them to make changes in temperature etc depending on the load on the power grid. Does it look like they're in bed with some energy companies? Many users on the net complain about it. Ecobee claims that you can disable this feature after agreeing to enable it! It's too heavy for my taste. I would agree if they recommended eco+, but I don't agree with them forcing it on me. If they change their policy on this I will happily upgrade my rating to 5 stars because the thermostat itself is excellent but until they do I should not recommend buying it.
