    I think I'd prefer a VP or VP IAQ as well.

    If it doesn't say HoneyWell on it, it's not a tstat. A lot of past White Rodgers (And Lennox, Carrier) stats are just rebranded Honeywells anyhow.

    I vote for the Honeywell IAQ. Just installed one in my own home and it controls everything. I like that.

    If your looking for non programmable I have sold a bunch of the Honeywell Focus PRO 5000 it has the large display and all my customers have really been happy with them.

    yes total agreement, very versatile stat, i am sure i have installed 100 of these stats an never had 1 complaint,

    but if your controlling more than 2heat/1cool or 2cool/1 heat, (or dual fuel) ya better go with the honeywell 8000 or IAQ!

    i will not install white rogers stats anymore due to the high quality of the honeywells!

    I built circuit boards for Honeywell.....they were round and nicely fit in a tube something that looked like it could go in the end of a.....Go with Honeywell the government thinks they are good enough. All of Honeywell that we built even when not required by the government was expected to meet class three standards meaning they couldn't fail or lose functionality in the most extreme cases....i.e...medical devices...ship control systems...guidance systems...

    Honeywell

    I had a VP8320 for 2 years, and upgraded into the IAQ last fall.

    Pleased with Honeywell for their products, and support.

    Honeywell we just installed about 400 focus pro 5000 large display thermostats on our newer ptacs in the hotel.

    We haven't had any problems with these stats yet. Out of the 400 I think we only had 1 that would not work out of the box.

    Honeywell VisionPro 8000 series all-the-way, or the 9000 IAQ series, hands-down. I've used the White-Rogers "Blue" touchscreen -- give me the VisionPro any day over it. Probably is the best stat WR as put out, but they're still quite a ways behind Honeywell.
