Electric baseboard thermostat

Not sure if I'm in the right place for this question or not.
My house is mostly steam heat, but prior owners put on a small addition And turned an upstairs closet into a bathroom. These new rooms have electric baseboard heat.
Heaters work fine, but thermostats are crummy. Especially in the bathroom. It only functions as an on off switch at the moment so I want to replace that one.
I'm handy enough not to kill myself swapping it out, but not well enough informed to pick out a replacement.
Any thoughts?
Attached are pictures of the the spec label on the heater (the bathroom only has one of the smaller baseboard units) and the existing thermostat.

These would be a nice upgrade https://www.supplyhouse.com/Honeywell-TH114-A-240D-B-Non-Programmable-Line-Volt-Thermostat-for-Electric-Heating
They have a programmable model as well"If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough"
