Default Anybody using a HIVE Active Heating Thermostat?

Hello,

Is there anybody out there using one of these HIVE Active Heating
thermostats.

Are they any cop?

I have 2 heating zones; one controlled by a byzantine Danfoss controller
and the other by an early "heatmiser" wired stat. Both are very
irritating.

Entry cost (£179 on Screwfix. Product 4632J for one zone. Second zone
extra £99 with a 9625K) is too high for an impulse purchase.

So far so good. Installed in what is effectively a holiday cottage in
Jan 2015, and very useful for remote monitoring of heating in the
winter, and switching heating on a couple of hours before arrival.
Nothing too complicated, only one zone. Early on, didn't survive power
fluctuations too well, but that seems to have improved (but I've put it
on a surge protector now anyway, along with the router, a computer, and
a phone).
