Best (cheap) thermostats in 2023 for Hubitat automation?

Hi, I have 2 houses, both using the older C7 Hubitat hubs - I can upgrade those if needed.

My current network is mainly zwave (all light switches, garage door, motions) but I am going to be adding Zigbee door and window sensors, so I am open to Zigbee thermostats as well.

I have in floor radiant heating where each room is it's own zone. This means I have 12 thermostats. (not my choice) Any replacement is costly at tht volume, so I am looking ideally for something sub $50 that looks good but more importantly work will the Hubitat as I want to be able do thing like shut down heat when window/door is opened or send alerts when it's opened for too long, or certain temp is not reached, etc.

Thanks for sharing your experiences and suggestions in advance!

I changed all my thermostats to Sinopé’s. They integrate extremely well with Hubitat and I really like that they will show the outside temperature. We use this feature more than we expected we would!

They do not, however, fit into your price requirement…

Cheapest I could find is € 50.00 incl VAT for Heatit ZM Thermostat 16A - Heatit

Interesting that most are European stores / recommendations. Anyone in the US has some tips, please?

Centralite Pearl is a zigbee thermostat that can often be found for ~50 bucks. I’m not sure if they’re compatible with your heating system but it should be possible to figure that out by googling for a copy of the user manual.
