I have a Honeywell that works great and it's way less than $150. I
subsequently found out that the next-higher model has a nice feature-- instead
of telling it what time to START warming the house, you tell it what time you
want it to BE warm. The thermostat has a 'memory' and remembers how long it
took to heat the house the past week (an average, I think) and thus starts
heating at the appropriate time.
This feature saves heating the house up too early as well as the problem of
coming home from work during a cold spell and finding out that the house is
still cold.
It's well worth the extra ten bucks!
