ABest for Multi-Room

Best multi-room accuracy โ€” included sensor and built-in Alexa justify the price.

The ecobee Premium's bundled SmartSensor sets it apart from everything else in this price range. Alexa built in, air quality monitoring, and a 4.7-star app rating across 68,000 reviews back up the $249 price.

  • Alexa built-in with full skill support
  • Air quality monitoring (VOC + CO2)

Cons

  • C-wire required; Power Extender Kit adds install complexity
