New Wi-Fi Thermostat Hits the Market

Android-controllable stat can be managed at home or away, and it looks great too.

For some time now we’ve been praising manufacturers for improving the cosmetics of their thermostats. Looking better then ever—as well as lot more high-tech—they fit right in with a modern home aesthetic.

A new thermostat from Season Group joins the club of good-looking, super-intuitive stats. The face of the STL-200 is all high-res touchscreen; no old-style button or knobs on this 3.5-inch beauty (available in black or white). It’s packed with technology, too. For starters, the wireless stat talks Wi-Fi, and can be monitored and controlled remotely via an Android device.

There are also built-in motion and humidity sensors, so you can have the stat adjust automatically when someone enters a room or when the humidity levels reach beyond a certain setpoint. A seven-day scheduler lets you program temps for each day of the week. No pricing information was available at press time.
