tado° Smart Radiator Thermostat X

Really nice, quiet devices, very easy to manage and charge, generally seem to be quite stable though I have had a single unit need to be re-paired with the app/Apple Home after summer. Installation was very easy. You can control it easily with the front display, the app or Matter.

I was fired by Google/Nest as they mothballed my version of the Nest Learning Thermostat. I was incentivized to get a Tado replacement with a discount voucher. The Tado version of the Nest is a bit tinny compared to the hefty and style of the Nest but much better functionality. BUT purpose of this review - I bought some smart radiator thermostat Xs in Black Friday sales AND they are brilliant (bought 5!) Not tinny and each one can communicate directly with the central receiver - game changer. Heating temperature stability up and costs down! I got ChatGPT to help me optimize the settings. Also crazy easy to install took minutes. Customising the per radiator schedules took longer. Very pleased 😊

The TRV works perfectly but I am far from impressed with the adapters included. I just don't feel confident they work as well as fitting to the correct size inlet but swapping the inlets is an expensive and more advanced DIY job.

These allow you to control the temperature of an individual radiator - either via a programmable schedule - through the app or directly on the unit - expensive but great

I’m already invested in a Tado system (~£500), and this new version won’t work with the previous generation. No backward compatibility, no adapter path, no mixed‑version support. If you want to add a thermostat, you’re basically told to rip out your existing kit and buy another full £500 system. That’s absurd. I tried: Pairing the new thermostat with my existing Tado bridge/controllers — fails to pair and isn’t recognized Firmware updates and factory resets — no change Support guidance — “requires the newer system,” i.e., replace everything At this price point, Tado should clearly state version compatibility and offer a migration path. Instead, you pay twice for the same functionality. If you’re on an older Tado setup, avoid this and save yourself the headache and cost.

I've had this for maybe a year now. I think it's just brilliant. Needed to get a professional to install, as it was too complicated for me to link the hub to the boiler, but the linking of the TRVs to the app etc was reasonably straightforward. The in life management is fantastic.

I’ve been looking at ways to make my home heating more efficient and convenient, and the tado° X Smart Radiator Thermostats are a really interesting upgrade for anyone wanting more control over their heating. Installation and setup One of the main things I look for with smart home products is how easy they are to install. The tado° X thermostats are designed to replace the existing thermostatic heads on compatible radiator valves, and the supplied adapters help with fitting different valve types. It’s worth checking your existing radiator valves before ordering to make sure you have the correct fit. The setup is guided through the tado° app, which is a big advantage for anyone who prefers to install smart home equipment themselves rather than pay for an installer. Individual room temperature control The biggest benefit of smart radiator thermostats is being able to control different rooms independently. Rather than heating the entire house to the same temperature, you can set a schedule that suits how each room is used. For example, you might want the bedrooms cooler during the day while keeping the living room comfortable in the evening. Being able to adjust individual room temperatures through the app makes this much more convenient than continually turning radiator valves up and down manually. App and smart home features The ability to manage heating settings through a smartphone is one of the main attractions. You can adjust your desired temperatures and schedules without having to visit every radiator. The X range also supports Matter and Thread, making it a useful option for people who want to integrate their heating into a compatible smart home setup. Rechargeable battery Another feature I particularly like about the design is the removable rechargeable battery pack. Instead of regularly replacing disposable batteries, you can recharge the unit using USB-C. Just bear in mind that the charging cable isn’t included, so you may need to use one you already own. Things to consider before buying These thermostats need a tado° Bridge X or another compatible Thread border router for connectivity. They are also part of the newer X range, so they aren’t compatible with the older tado° V3+ system. Check this carefully if you’re upgrading an existing installation. It’s also worth considering the cost if you’re planning to fit several radiators, as the price can add up across a whole house. Some additional automation features require a paid subscription, so check which functions are included before purchasing. Overall verdict The tado° X Smart Radiator Thermostat is worth considering if you want more convenient, flexible control of your home’s heating. The combination of individual room control, app-based scheduling, a rechargeable battery and modern smart home compatibility makes it an appealing option. I’d particularly recommend looking into this system if you’re planning to manage the heating in several rooms and want a more organised approach to your heating schedule. Just check radiator valve compatibility and the connectivity requirements before buying. Overall, it looks like a well-thought-out smart heating solution for anyone wanting greater control over their home comfort.

Love them, they are the most integral part of our life during the cold winter...they will pay for them selves in about 2 to 3 years...i tink itll be even quicker....I have 8 of these and the made life soo soo much easier and save a a lot of money as they allow u to isolate rooms that we dont need to heat...the app is absolutely amazing ...if we leave the house ...it turns off the heating automatically...it heats up the house beforw we get home...it heats up the house before we weak up in the morning...this is the best thing you will do to you heating...get this with the main thermostate ...iv not seen the boiler for a long time...i just do it all from my phone...i just love these thing

Muy útil para gestionar la calefacción desde fuera de casa, la enciendo en remoto, dependiendo de la temperatura y de cuándo voy a llegar. Y también la manejo desde el sofá. Para evitar tener que poner un termostato por cada válvula está la opción de compensación de temperatura por estancia, para regular las que son más o menos frías. Aún no he recibido ninguna factura desde que las he instalado, pero creo que es una opción interesante, antes de tenerlas, o tenía que dejar la calefacción encendida aun sin estar en casa, o cuando llegaba hacía un frío tremendo.

Easy installation, great app.

Also für mich zur Zeit das beste, die Verbindung und Einrichtung war sehr leicht, und es funktioniert so wie es sein soll, schauen wir mal wie es weiter geht

Ho 12 termosifoni, ciascuno con la propria valvola, e due termostati collegati a filo, +2 termostati wireless. A me il sistema funziona divinamente con notevoli risparmi di riscaldamento rispetto all'anno prima. Le batterie durano un sacco, ne avrò ricaricate quattro o cinque, le altre ancora non accennano a scaricarsi da settembre dell'anno scorso. Capisco che l'installazione non sia alla portata di tutti, ma non riesco a comprendere alcuni commenti negativi che ho trovato in giro....

Nickel, jamais embêté.
