Honeywell CM 907 - reliability?

[Octopus]

Chaps (and chapesses!)

One of my mates has got a house with 4 x Honeywell CM 907's in it. They are about 4 years old and all of them have very faded displays - to the extent that 3 of them need replacing......

Anyone experienced the same ? seems very poor product quality to me

Thanks

Have a read through this. looks like others have had the same problem......something I wasn't aware of as I've fitted loads of these The 927 mentioned in the thread is the same thermostat body, screen etc just a few different options on the thermostat itself.

Thanks for the link Lee .... makes interesting reading, as do the Amazon reviews.... this is not an isolated problem and pretty carp for a company like Honeywell.

No probs mate...I will definitely be wary about fitting these in the future after reading this so thanks for the heads up. Might be worth your mate complaining to Honeywell to see if he can get anything out of them.

I've done the complaining on his behalf ..... be interesting to hear what they say...

Probably another product not made in China where quality control isn't a high priority!
