We have the Honeywell Thermostat 9320 WF5003-u It too was about $200, but the Honeywell Total Comfort app is quite accessible and you would need the Mac address of the thermostat to setup yr account so you can access the thermostat from anywhere. The thermostat itself does not talk, and physically is only adjustable with sight, but the app makes it so I can set the AC or heat myself. HTH, Richard

It's the VIP3000. This is a universal thermostat. It is not a Wi-Fi thermostat. It does have 5/2 programming. That means weekday and weekend programming. It speaks in an extremely clear male voice. The price was around $190 or so. HTh.

I’ll be checking the Archive for comments, but I need to know quickly when talking to the electrician for which thermostat is best. In case I don’t get through the Archived material in time, can those in the know suggest best or several good VO accessible thermostats, and which to avoid?
