If you’re still living with a clunky, dial-twisting home thermostat, it’s time for an upgrade to a smart model like the Google Nest Learning Thermostat. It learns how you like your home to feel, then takes over the temperature changes for you, delivering a delightful mix of comfort and savings.

Even better, this refurbished third-gen Google Nest Learning Thermostat costs just $99.99, making it one of the easiest and smartest home upgrades you can make.

In fact, this deal drops the price below Amazon’s current discount on the same model.

Here at Cult of Mac, we naturally tend to favor smart home hardware that works with Apple’s Home app. Unfortunately, this Google Nest Learning Thermostat won’t do that.

If that’s important to you, you should consider an Ecobee smart thermostat, which works with Apple’s HomeKit platform, or even the fourth-gen Google Nest Learning Thermostat, which added Matter support so it plays nice with Apple’s smart home ecosystem.

However, both those options cost considerably more than this heavily discounted model. And, if we’re being completely honest, Google makes some very nice smart home gear. (RIP, Nest Protect. We loved you.)

How does a smart thermostat work?

If you’ve never used a smart thermostat, it’s simple to get started. Just adjust the temperature the way you normally would for about a week, and the Google Nest Learning Thermostat will figure out your routine.

It knows when you’re up, asleep or out — and automatically tweaks heating and cooling to avoid wasting power when nobody is around. Translation: It keeps things cozy at all the right times, while lowering your heating and/or cooling bills.

Plus, you can change the temperature from anywhere with the highly rated Google Home app. It’s easy to tweak the temp, whether you’re on the couch, at the office or halfway to the airport and suddenly wondering if you left the A/C blasting.

This smart home accessory also works with Alexa and Google Assistant. Finally, the phrase, “Hey turn the heat up a bit” does something useful.

The thermostat features a bright modern display that looks good on your wall instead of like a dingy artifact from the ’90s. It gives you energy-saving tips and shows a Leaf icon when you’re making choices your wallet will appreciate. And since this is a grade-A refurbished unit, it shows up looking close to new without the full-price guilt.

Save on a third-gen Google Nest Learning Thermostat

Your thermostat has one job and it could definitely be doing it better. If you want a more comfortable home and a smarter energy setup with minimal effort, this great deal makes for a no-brainer upgrade.

Get a refurbished third-gen Google Nest Learning Thermostat for just $99.99 for a limited time.
