As if dumb thermostats last really that long.
Ours from Brötli died after around four years.
The replacement has a manufacturing date from 2008 -- what a joke.
The firmware in those things has bugs (like switching some, but not all programs at midnight) that will never get fixed; it works, but not flawless.
Considering this I wouldn't mind a smart solution that lasts /only/ ten years, but gets bug fixes during its lifetime.
