    Sensor works as expected. Took awhile to set up, but after getting it up, does work as expected.

    Have used various brands in several different homes. The integration and stability with Nest Detect is by far my favorite.

    Solid product but very visible, placement also requires it to be pretty much at eye level to function properly

    If it weren't for the price, I would give it 5 stars. I just don't think it should be so expensive.

    These work well but are getting 3 stars instead of 5 on account that Google/Nest seemingly abruptly discontinued this product along with their security system. Bad form when someone spends $500+ dollars on a system from you and then stops selling the motion detectors that go along with the system.

    The sensors work great and do as intended but man these are just way too expensive. My house has 14 doors and windows. The system comes with only a couple of these so you can see how much this adds up. 2 stars simply for the cost

    I bought 5 units of this for my Nest secure. It works quite well for door, but I am not quite sure it works well too for motion detector. I installed it for motion detection on my second floor and in study room, but I do not feel that it senses its motion exactly.

    I bought this as an extension and we had trouble installing it. It took us close to three hours for it to connect to the internet. Once it detected the connection it hasn’t disconnected.

    We ordered several units for windows in our home and one of the units was dead right out of the package. We had to go buy a new battery to put in.

    Extremely disappointed that Google stated that their security system has been sunsetted. I was all-in for their ecosystem and was caught off guard that they are doing away with this Nest tool.

    The reason I have to write the solo is that Google gave up on nest home security. I really feel bad for the people that own these devices that paid a lot of money for them. They were really great I have no clue why they would do that to the people that purchased them came on you Google

    Google abandoned their home security product. Waste of money, Recouped some of my lost money on eBay.
