I really am pleased. This unit does have a backlight which is essential at night. You have to push a button to make it light up, but it does not adjust the setting unless you press it a second time. I though setting the schedule was straight forward. If I have it set for lower during the day, but do remain home, I just press the up button to get heat. It resumes the regular schedule w/o my having to reset anything. I'm not sure how long this temporary over ride lasts as I haven't paid attention. Great unit - I would buy again.
