Good Smart thermostat - not Hive

[Hunterlit]

Can anyone recommend a smart thermostat? I previously had a Hive, which was working fine until a couple of weeks ago when I tried to connect it to the home network with the idea of integrating it with Home Assistant. I never managed to get it to detect the receiver or the stat, only the hub. When attempting to get it to working online again, the Hive stat stopped connecting to the receiver entirely, so the only way we can switch the heating on is manually at the receiver. I've looked at Tado and some others, but most have a good majority of poor reviews. I'm not particularly interested in being able to turn the heating on and off remotely, but I would like the ability to view the room temperature online and know when the heating turns on and for how long.

Tado X is the new version of Tado. It supports OpenTherm if that's on your radar moving forwards (right boiler/wiring center required).

The OEM controls are best if you have a later model Vaillant from my research. But again, you need the proper wiring center for it to work.

Thanks, we currently have an older boiler, so doubt it supports opentherm. Nonetheless I will add it onto my watch list.
