    The Nest detectors are really worth the money imo...they run a diagnostic check once a month. If you install the Nest app, you get a low battery alert, a monthly test alert, and most importantly, an alert if something is wrong (I know, our CO2 alarm went off because a car in our attached garage ran too long before we backed out, and I got an alert on my phone and watch, and all detectors inside were communicating as to where the problem was coming from.

    Carbon Monoxide detector was the motivator for this purchase. It was easy to install and run through the setup.

    Setup was easy, happy that I can get notifications to my phone if something is happening at home and I'm not there. Also like the idea that a voice will come in just before the alarm so it doesn't disorient me.

    Had this for about a month and it’s been great. Lets me or my wife silence the alarm from our phones before it even sounds an alarm. It will also send notifications straight to our phone through the nest app.

    The Nest smoke / carbon monoxide detector was VERY easy to install & connect to my Nest software on my iPhone. Even though we have wired smoke detectors in our townhouse, I somehow feel safer having bought & installed the Nest detector. I really like that I can test it on the device or my phone, & I also like how long-lasting the battery is. I would clearly recommend this to others.

    I have purchased two previous and I really do like the ease with which they can be set up. The fact that they are interconnected and can specifically inform someone where the fire is in the household could be a lifesaver.

    Easy installation on any four square electrical box or you can set it up with a box. Just screw the support bracket where ever you choose in your ceiling. Works as a motion detector light light too.

    the unit was very easy to set up. I was already using a 1st gen Nest and everything is easy to control and in same App. I like being able to see what is going on if necessary and receive alerts if there is an issue.

    We have been gradually replacing all smoke detectors with nest. No issues with installation or connection with wifi. It autochecks itself once a month. The nest app is very friendly and alerts up with a 'headup' if there is accumulating smoke to open the windows/doors before the alarm goes off. The main reason we invested in nest smoke detectors is because of the alert on the app for when we are out on vacation. The home security does not alert the agency or fire station for fire alarms - I think most do not - so this is a good feature to protect your home/investment.

    We live in an apartment and one night our CO alarm went off. We have a young infant and of course evacuated the apartment and called maintenance. They came and said it was the battery, My wife was not 100% about it being the battery and decided to purchase the Nest. This allowed us to put in our infants room to ensure everything was safe for her. It paired right up to our ios app and tested right away. It has been that one tool you forget about but we know if anything does come up our family will be safe.
