Managing your heating from your phone or with voice commands is becoming a standard expectation, but this category offers an unusual choice: you can buy a single new smart thermostat for $29.99, or you can spend $10 more and get two open-box units. Both come from Commercial Electric, both are white and wall-mounted, and both share the same model number HTSA15CWB. Each unit has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth built in, so you can control it from an app or connect a smart home system. The real question is whether you need one thermostat or two.
Quick verdict
If you have more than one zone or want a second unit for a workshop or vacation property, the two-pack gives you significantly more hardware for the money. At $39.99, you're getting two thermostats for about $20 each, which is hard to beat for a Wi-Fi / Bluetooth model. If you only need one thermostat and prefer a factory-new unit with touch and voice control, the single unit is the cleaner choice. It costs $29.99, but you get a new-in-box product and don't have to store an extra unit you don't need.
Comparison table
| Product | Price | Condition | Key highlights |
|---|---|---|---|
| LOT OF 2 Commercial Electric Smart Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Programmable Thermostat | $39.99 | Open box | Two programmable wall-mounted thermostats |
| New Commercial Electric Wi-Fi Bluetooth Enabled Smart Thermostat | $29.99 | New | App, touch, and voice control; includes mounting hardware |
Where each product wins
The LOT OF 2 wins on quantity and per-unit price. At $39.99, you're paying about $20 per thermostat, which makes it a practical option for multi-zone homes or anyone who wants a backup unit. The New Commercial Electric single wins on condition and control options. It's a new unit that supports app, touch, and voice control, and the included mounting hardware makes installation more self-contained. If you're the type who wants the whole setup in one box, this is the easier route.
Product notes
LOT OF 2 Commercial Electric Smart Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Programmable Thermostat
This is the volume play. For just $10 above the price of the single, you get two separate wall-mounted thermostats, each programmable and designed to be fixed to the wall. That's a meaningful difference if you're managing a main house and a garage, or a property with separate heating zones. The open-box condition is the trade-off, so you're valuing the extra unit over the pristine packaging. If you buy with the goal of installing both, the per-unit cost is hard to argue with. The fact that both share the same model HTSA15CWB means you get a matching pair, which can simplify setting up a multi-room system.
New Commercial Electric Wi-Fi Bluetooth Enabled Smart Thermostat
This single unit is for the one-room buyer who wants a fresh, untouched thermostat. It's a new product with app, touch, and voice control, meaning you can adjust the temperature from your phone, by tapping the screen, or by speaking a command. The package includes mounting hardware, so you don't need to track down extra parts. The trade-off is the per-unit price: at $29.99, it costs noticeably more than the per-unit cost of the two-pack. For a single installation, that's a fair price, but you don't get the extra unit. If you only need to control one space, buying new gives you the full factory experience without any open-box uncertainty.
Final choice by use case
Choose the LOT OF 2 when you need two thermostats at once, such as a home with separate heating zones, a workshop and main house, or a rental setup with two units. Choose the New Commercial Electric single when you need exactly one thermostat, want a new unit, and value voice or touch control enough to skip the two-pack. If you're still on the fence, think about the second unit: if it would sit in a drawer unused, the single new thermostat is the better buy; if you can put it to work, the two-pack wins.
