Product received not as advertised

The Unit was advertised to include a room thermometer and the spec sheet showed it, but upon receiving it there was no room thermometer so I sent them back and I received a refund less the postage I paid at time of purchase about $15. If you can use it without the room temperature indicator it would probably be ok. I am replacing in my 30 plus year old house and wanted them to match existing. I have ordered a different model that also shows a room thermometer, but have not received it yet to know if it is included or not. I would recommend PexSupply, but just know that you may not get the item as advertised in their catalogue.

Accuracy of Thermostat

I purchased 3 of these thermostats for a electric baseboard heating project. One of the three was off by 15 degrees. I ordered another to replace it, and this one is 10 degrees off. I am going to try to make the adjustment myself so I dont have deal with returning multiple units. I never expect these types of stats to be as accurate at digital stats, but 15 to 10 degrees off?

calibration off by at least 10 degrees

calibration is off by at least 10 degrees. I have replaced one that was off by 15.PexSupply was very nice to do replacmeny but they are not the one makin this product.I bought 2 of them double pole, one to replace T498 single pole model with calibration off by 10degrees. So nothing changed. This is the case of poorly made product.The thermostats were destined to be instaled i my bathrooms, I bought electronic versions for other living aeras. I would not recomend this product to any one.

Digital thermostats are always recommended for the greatest accuracy. While a 10 degree differential is more than you should expect to see even on this unit, since it is the older mechanical technology it will be less accurate.

not accurate, differs from picture

I replaced similar Honeywell single pole unit with out positive stop with this unit. Older unit was 10 degrees off , so is this one.This is a lot.I have to set it at 60 to get 70 . So I can not use the lower range of the thermostat, my 40 is in fact 50.Pex supply was nice enough to replace the second unit I purchased, which was off by 15 degrees, replacmet is also off by 10 degrees, I just have to live with that. As idicated in the unit description some units come with stick on decal to correct visual innacuracy. I'm sorry to report this one does not.I would expect little more from the company such as Honeywll, why not include the sticker with every unit and make them a bit more accurate.I would not recomend this unit.
