    I bought this for my upstairs. I had recently bought the nest thermostat too. So I wanted to keep everything with the same app so I wouldn’t have a bunch of apps for smart home things. The setup was very easy. It does weekly sound checks and sends notifications to you if there is any issues or alarms. After having it for a week I went out and bought another one for my basement. I highly recommend this product.

    In turning my home into a smart home on the Google ecosystem, this was probably the easiest item to set up. I chose the battery operated one and was simple install both on the ceiling but also within the app. It constantly does self checks and keeps me posted if something is irregular. Highly recommend this product as well as the Google/Nest smart home products.

    Best smoke/CO detector

    If you don't want a home monitoring service but want good protection when your away the Nest is the best product out there. If you live in a two story home like me and have a smoke detector on every floor the Nest gives you the earilest warning you can get with wireless connectivity between detectors. If, let's say the basement detector sense smoke, Fire or CO, every detector alarms in your home sounds and tells you what and where the problem is located. As a Lieutenant on the Fire Department I can tell you that early warning can make the difference of getting out safely with your entire family in today's world of synthetic material fires. Current code requires hard wired battery back up interconnected smoke and CO detectors in new construction, this is because detectors that sound in one part of the house may not be loud enough to alert people sleeping in another part. Early detection saves lives, nest does this with this product. You are the monitoring service when the alarm sounds. An alert is sent to your smart phone or email notifying you of the problem. If you have their camera, it automatically records the event and you can see live what's going on. This make it the best detector in my opinion.

    I love all of the Nest line up. I have all of there products in our home and this was the first, the one that got it started. It's easy to setup. Before purchasing I do recommend remvo No old one to be sure if it's wired or battery powered. It's so much better the loud siren that was a regular as dinner was being burned. It can be controlled via app. I feel it's safer because I believe it's better made-made the Nest way! Can't go wrong, I have three already and it will soon be four.

    I bought the Nest Thermostat 3rd generation and installed that first. After returning to the store, I saw this device and was intrigued, so I did a little more research. The draw for me was the smart features of this device that enable it to send notifications to your smart device if issues occur. For me, I feel reassured when I am away from home for extended periods knowing that the device will notify me of any disturbances. Also, like other Nest products, this device takes 5-10minutes to setup.

    As with most Nest/Google products the set up was quick and easy. Yes almost every other smoke/CO2 detector is cheaper but since I have many other Nest/Google products it integrates with the Home and has away from home access. We have animals and if the CO2 gets high it shuts the Nest thermostat off and notifies the cell and gives the heads up to get them out...

    There isn't much to say about a smoke detector, but I have this in a dark hallway and it has a night light. Also, I like being able to check on it when I am away from home.

    I have builder grade Kidde Smoke Alarms in my house. Even after replacing the batteries every year they never fail to go off in the middle of the night. I have been replacing them with these Nest units when that happens. They are an easy install and provide great piece of mind! They even function as a pathlight when it is dark and everything is controllable from an app on your phone or tablet.

    Very satisfied with the NEST smart home CO/fire detector. Easy set up using iPhone app which walks you through the entire process. Nice app interface showing current status and test results from each day. App can be used to test and silence the alarms in addition to sending a warning to the phone if the alarm is sounding while you're away. A great feature that my family really likes on this Gen 2 model is the Pathlight which is a motion activated nightlight that illuminates the area when someone walks by.

    This is my third Nest Google fire alarm. I now have one on each floor. A big plus is the warning that announces what floor the smoke is occuring through all the units. You know exactly where the problem is. The motion activated night light is super convienient as well. High quality, professional grade in my opinion.
