    great unit just a little exspensive. Really like the fact that multiple devices communicate data to each other incase of emergency. Had to buy 9 of these.

    I purchased the Nest Protect for one important safety feature - if carbon monoxide is detected, my Nest Thermostat will shut down the furnace. Easy installation and setup in the Nest app.

    I went thru battery smoke detectors like cheap socks before I bit the bullet and plunked down $99 bucks for the Nest Protect. Cheap, big box smoke detectors have greatly harmed the smoke/CO2 market by assuming people want inexpensive products in lieu of performance. Nest Protect completely changes this narrative by offering a much needed and trustworthy device that protects your family with the most sophisticated technology available. The unit looks terrific but you already expect that from Nest...the real feature is an affordable life insurance policy that will pay dividends for years to come. I'm fully satisfied with my purchase and would highly recommend same to anyone who's serious about detectors in your home.

    Well worth it to be able to silence the alarm through your phone; the auto-night light feature is unexpectedly one of the best features.

    Super easy to install and use. Great for monitoring our condo remotely when we are not there which gives us comfort. Love the thoughtful use of the motion sensor and central light as a nightlight.

    After owning the Nest thermostat for several months, I opted for the Nest Protect. Easy setup and works in conjunction with the thermostat. If you use IFTTT, there are several useful applets available too.

    I’ve replaced all of the smoke detectors with this product. I honestly don’t think there’s a better product on the market. It’s easy to set up and it’s reliable.

    Easy to setup and connect with multiple Protect devices. Haven’t had any issues with these. Detects smoke very well. Nice to have a option to silence alarm if it is a false alarm.

    After quickly reading through the instructions, setting up a Nest account, installing and programming the units to the account was a simple operation. I changed out and set up 9 units in under 2 hours.

    Is an amazing replacement for your old school smoke detector. Automatically does tests and keeps track of batteries and can tie into your nest eco-system.

    I love these things. They are super easy to install. And the hardware is so nicely made. Down the screws used are very high quality. I program all but the one in my bedroom to light my path when I am near by. If there is carbon monixide or smoke it alerts me and I can use the app to silence it. Which I tend to do. I hate hearing the alarm sound especially when I am cooking and its gotten a little smokey but no fire risks
