Product doesn’t work in the UK!!!
I purchased this item and failed to install it because I needed a more recent version of the Nest thermostat, despite the fact that my thermostat was telling me I had the most up-to-date version.After some research I discovered that there are 2 versions of the software: 1 for the United States, Canada, Mexico, and some other countries, where this sensor is available, and 1 for Europe, which is not compatible with is sensor. This sensor shouldn’t be sold in the UK as is cannot be used in with a UK-sold Nest thermostat. Frankly it should be put in the product description.

Miss sold
Sold into the UK as an additional component of the Nest system but only found out afterwards it only works in North America. Why are they selling to the UK market?

temperature sensor is useless in the EU. It will not work, don’t buy it!!
This temperature sensor is useless in the EU. It will not work, don’t buy it!! When you try to add it at the app, it will ask for a software update that does not exist.

Dont work in the UK
NOt sure why this product is marketed in the UK when the Google support website clearly states they do not work in the UK
Paul –
Doesn’t work in Europe
According to Google, this is only compatible with thermostats bought in the US, Canada or Mexico!Returning for a refund!!
Peter Taylor –
DOES NOT WORK IN THE UK!
As other reviews have stated, this device cannot be added to Nest in the United Kingdom. Why it is on sale on Amazonâs UK app and website is a mystery!
Katharine Aitken –
Not compatible with U.K. system
This is not compatible with the U.K. nest system but doesnât state this anywhere on the product listing
Joe –
Do not buy if in the UK
Like many other reviews do not buy this product if you are in the UK, it will not work and whilst this would be a simple software update, Google seem incapable or unwilling to rectify this.

Il sensore di temperatura Nest non funziona in Italia, di questa informazione non câè traccia nella scheda tecnica del prodotto scritta dal venditore (Americano). Dopo aver tentato lâabbinamento ad un termostato Nest âLearning Terza Generazioneâ, il termostato riporta un messaggio relativo alla necessità di aggiornamento del software, ma non è possibile fare nessun aggiornamento perché il software italiano non prevede lâassociazione del sensore. Ho contatto lâhelp desk Google Nest, il cui operatore mi ha confermato che questo prodotto non è distribuito direttamente in Italia da Google proprio perché non è compatibile con il software italiano. Il venditore ha perso una buona occasione per dimostrare la sua onestà !

Works well with our Google Nest 3rd Gen Thermostat (US version). Adding the sensor to the account was easy on the app, and connection is stable between floors (thermostat is downstairs, sensor is upstairs).

Got one of this sensor to work with the Nest Learning Thermostat a year ago. The thermostat was installed in the living room but since our living room faces east and the family room faces west, the set temperature for the living room was not always right for the family room even though I tried to compensate by adjusting the schedule.The additional sensor made a huge difference in convenience. They are well built. Set up was super easy with the Google Home app. I was then able to program the thermostat to use the built in sensor in the morning, and this stand alone sensor in the afternoon to get the house temperature just right. Note that unlike other thermostats with extra sensor, the Nest thermostat does not use average temperatures from all sensors to run the HVAC system. It uses the selected sensor as programmed exclusively which is what I want.And then just a month ago, our central air conditioner called it quit after 17 years of use. We decided to upgrade the entire HVAC system to a 2 stage furnace and air conditioner. But alas, although the Nest learning thermostat is compatible with the new system, the original cable from the furnace to the thermostat has only 4 wires and the new system requires 7 (including the C-wire)! Replacing the cable will cost us an extra $1000+. Fortunately, since our basement home theatre is right next to the furnace room, I opted to relocate the thermostat to the home theatre where wiring to the furnace was straight forward. I bought an extra temperature sensor to put in the living room, and then programmed the thermostat to use the two external sensors to run the HVAC. And since the thermostat is already integrated to Google Home, I can set the house temperature however I want to via the Nest home app or by voice through Home Assistant anywhere.Can’t be more happy with the versatility of these little sensors!By the way, the white little temperature sensor is unobtrusive and can be hanged anywhere to blend in the room’s decor. I also found a small round indoor thermometer and hygrometer on Amazon that is the same size and looked almost like the Nest thermostat to put in the original mounting plate in the living room. I left the wire in place in case I need to sell the house and the new owner does not like my setup.

The Nest thermostat is algorithmic; this means it needs to know certain conditions such as are you home and this translates into motion detection by the thermostat and the use of your smartphone location as in being home or not. If the Nest thermostat were three sided, if the sides also picked up motion detection, a lot would be solved when it comes to the thermostat knowing you are home. A lot would be solved too if the thermostat’s away from home and being at home but hunkered down for the night data points were on the ball. Until then, get the remote sensor.The Nest thermostat is heavy on using its app on your smartphone to know if you are home AND it uses a sensor to know if you pass in front of it. If you have just one thermostat in a two-floor house, or if you have multiple thermostats but you either stay to the left or right of any one of them or you are downstairs during the day or upstairs at night, a lack of motion detection wins out over the use of your smartphone showing you are inside the geofence of your home. This sensor is for one thermostat with one of four preset time periods (morning, afternoon, evening, night) that are fixed. You can choose just one of the four to prioritize temperature wherever the sensor is placed away from the Nest thermostat it is linked to. So if you have one thermostat for a two-story house, having a sensor upstairs to prioritize a pre-set temp of say 67 degrees from 9 pm until 7 am is great. Or if you have a childâs room, you can place the sensor there and prioritize your heat setting. The whole point of the remote sensor is to bypass the thermostatâs detection or lack thereof of people passing by it to show it you are home so the sensor can tell the thermostat what temperature you want at what time where. Of course, if you have say a second floor Nest thermostat and you want the childâs room to be 70 then yes, the entire second floor is 70. However this beats the thermostat going into eco mode (which you can set up to 65 degrees anyway on the thermostat even without a remote sensor) and keeping the entire second floor cold. In general, the Nest thermostat is good except for geofencing. It is not bad but it is not good. If during the day you are on a floor where you do not pass by the thermostat, it most likely will figure you are not there and go into eco mode. The result is you are cold, the thermostatâs temp is in eco mode, and you are not happy. The remote sensor is something like Civil War technology. It works, kinda. It does not detect motion. It only detects temperature in the room it is in and does absolutely nothing unless the prioritized zone and time period are in place. If you are downstairs most of the day, who cares if the upstairs thermostat goes into eco mode. If you are asleep at 10 pm and the thermostat thinks you are away, it goes to eco mode and you are cold. Yes the thermostat learns somewhat. Yes, it uses geofencing. Yes, it recognizes motion. Add the three together and Google does not yet have it right. Using this remote sensor lets you get a reasonable temperature staying put on the dial for a specific time period regardless of the thermostatâs going off the rails with its algorithms. I have two sensors: one is for the second floor from 9 pm until 7 am so I have the heat at 70. That is what I like. For central air, I have the thermostat in the second floor hall near the return. On the first floor it gets really hot from 1 to 6 pm. So a sensor on the first floor, linked to the second floor central air thermostat, gives me the chance to prioritize the central air thermostat setting to 66 which keeps the first floor bearable when it is 98 degrees out. The ability to prioritize the temp on the first floor with a second floor thermostat is great. After that at 6 pm, I donât care if the Nest thermostat is bouncing around trying to figure out who is home and what it is learning. The Nest thermostat is hit or miss; the remote sensor helps it get a few more hits than before. I recommend it.
