The $149 Lux Geo thermostat gets the job done, but other models offer more.
Set a geofencing radius and/or a recurring heating and cooling schedule with ease using the $149 Lux Geo thermostat's related app; you can mount the thermostat either horizontally or vertically.
The Lux Geo doesn't have any smart home partners, so don't expect it to work with Samsung SmartThings, Wink, IFTTT, Google Home, Apple HomeKit or Amazon Alexa.
Lux's Geo is a fine thermostat, but competing models from Honeywell, Ecobee and Emerson offer more features for roughly the same price.

The Lux/Geo Wi-Fi Thermostat offers plenty of scheduling options and uses geofencing to automatically switch between heating modes depending on your location, but it lacks some of the useful features you'll find in competitors.
Expert review by : Mike Prospero (tomsguide.com)
Top-end next-generation smart thermostats aren't cheap. The latest-generation Nest and Ecobee thermostats, our two favorite, cost about $249 each; that's about $200 more than a generic non-smart programmable thermostat. The $179 Lux/Geo would seem like...
Geofencing feature ; Less expensive than Nest
Trickier installation than other smart thermostats ; Feels cheap ; Dated interface
While nearly $100 less than the Nest and Ecobee thermostats, the Lux/Geo isn’t the bargain smart thermostat it seems.
