    The Nest Protect is great, it has better detection of cooking smoke than standard detectors which means the alarm doesn't go off when you slightly burn your toast.

    I love nest products in general, but this is the best smoke/carbon detector option out there. Great value, and easy to use.

    This was a great replacement for my old smoke detector. I had issues with the smoke detector going off every night during cooking, but now I can control that.

    Our whole home is nest equipped now with these detectors. It has tiered sensors to tell you how bad the smoke might be and the alerts are instantaneous. Recommend.

    Spoiler Alert: Must replace this every 7 years otherwise the Nest app reminds you over and over its not "working". I guess that's by law. Now my feedback -- What in the world is Nest doing. I brought this to replace a first gen Nest Protect. The 1st gen was awesome for us. The 2nd gen blah -- - The path light I just can't get the thing to work. The first gen I had worked flawlessly - The mounting is horrible. The plate is fine. Im talking about mounting the Nest protect to the plate. You clockwise screw it to the base plate. There is no brake or stop with tension. When it feels secure you let it go. So, you can actually keep screwing clockwise infinitely. I like the 1st gen, but the 2nd gen is like blah to me.

    The alarm is intelligent in the fact that it tests its self every day. I also like the feature were when its dark the light turns on so you can see. The main downside to the alarm is that the stand/hook for it is very cheap and can break easily.

    Smoke and CO2 combination sensors, path light, alerts via phone, being able to shut off the thermostat (Nest) if it senses CO2 this smoke detector is beyond amazing

    Swapping out the old detectors in my house and thought I’d give one a try. So far I’m impressed and going to outfit the rest of my house with these!
