We live in a day and age of smart technology: smart phones, smart cars, smart home appliances, etc. All this ‘smartness’ can save energy, time and money. That’s great for us and for the planet. That’s why we were very happy to partner with LUX to start saving energy with LUX KONO Smart Thermostat.
When we partnered with LUX we had no idea of the adventure we were about to embark upon. We didn’t realize just how outdated our existing, not so smart, thermostat was until we learned about all the features of the KONO Smart Thermostat. Our old thermostat was not only costing us extra money, but it wasn’t conserving as much energy as possible. That wasn’t good for us or for the planet.
That’s why we love KONO. Beside the fact that KONO works to keep the temperature in your home precisely where you want it, precisely where YOU are the most comfortable, it’s great at saving energy.
The KONO Smart Thermostat is quick and easy to install, with minimal tools needed. We were able to install ours in just over an hour. The enclosed directions are easy to follow, with a step by step tutorial.
In addition to precise technology when it comes to controlling the comfort of your home, we discovered the various color options offered. Let’s face it, we all function better when we’re comfortable: not too hot, not too cold. Not too much to ask for, right? And we’re also more comfortable when we’re surrounded by things we enjoy. Otherwise, furniture, clothing, cell phones, even cars wouldn’t be available in so many different colors or styles. Everything would be the same for everyone. Not so with KONO! KONO takes it a bit further with an additional ten easy changeable Décor-snap covers. There’s also a Décor-snap cover you can paint to match your wall or accent colors. You can opt to personalize your KONO just like you want it to.
The KONO Smart Thermostat works with your smart phone OR with the easy to use large knob on its face. We love the convenience of adjusting our KONO with the LUX cell phone app. We can make adjustments from our bedroom upstairs before we get up, OR from our car when we leave the house, OR before getting home. You can make changes from virtually anywhere! The LUX app is absolutely brilliant, giving you complete control. KONO is also voice compatible with the Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit and Amazon Alexa.
KONO Smart measures 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 by 1 inch. It makes a sharp addition to any decor. While it comes with a Black Stainless Steel Décor-snap cover, we first thought we’d go with the True White; white walls, white cover. We quickly decided however, that the red, yes, RED cover added a bit of pizzaz for us.
The Hibiscus Red Décor-snap cover goes especially well with a nearby red framed print.
Each Décor Set comes with a Décor-snap cover and custom trim plate. If you choose to use the trim plate, it’s installed behind KONO. Colors shown above are Deep Blue, Hibiscus Red, Sea Green, and Paint-it. Additional colors: True White, Champagne Gold, Sky Blue, Driftwood, Sea Mist Grey, Shiny Midnight Black.
So, you see? Go with a Décor-snap cover you like and/or interchange them from season to season and even for different holidays. Your home, your choice! Be smart and save energy, as well as time and money with the LUX KONO Smart Thermostat.

This is the smarter way to keep your house at the right temperature and it saves money that is a win win. I would love to know if they can retrofit an older home.
Amy says
I love how sleek and fancy these are! I would totally love one for my two floors. The red is cool!

What a smart looking thermostat. I really do like the look of the red cover. I love that you can control it from your phone too.
