i would say honeywell too. however i have just taken over a maintenance contract and have had to replace about 6 in the last two weeks as the relays aren't clicking over all less then a year old and not from the same batch.

ouch, had none of the new ones go wrong yet, but a few of the older models.

the Delta Dore ones are supposed to have best rf signal and they have 5 year warranty probs with honeywell its only 1 year, and cos put boliers in with 5 year warranty, cust expects same with controller, they get a bit miffed when they have to pay for new one

I like the Honeywell CM927/07.

Don't get many customers calling me back to explain how it works with them.

was told by merchant that warranty starts from when it was manufactured rather than when sold to end user, could be on shelf amonth or two
