I bought a Hunter unit for $60.  Seems real nice so far.  It also collects
statistics of number of hours the heat ran today, yesterday, this week and
last week.  After 150 hours of on time it will tell you to change the air
filter.  You can program weekdays for 4 intervals (i.e. morning warm-up and
evening warmup).  The weekend days are broken down into 2 intervals.

The override feature works nice, the unit remains overridden until a
programmed interval comes up.  The only bad programming mode is setting
the weekdays  You have to key in all the information when you re-program.
It would have been nice to have it tell you the current setting and hit
NEXT to go to the next segment.  As near as I can tell that is the only wart
I have found.
