I've been updating my home with smart technology, when it seems a good fit, and these are great. The night light is a great touch and testing is easy.

This is what it is. A smoke detector. I like the night light function and it looks nicer than any other smoke detector. Was easy to set up.

Bought the 3 pack of the wired nest protects. We put one in our basement, one on our main floor and one on the 2nd floor. They were very easy to install. I'm not a handyman by any means but after watching some YouTube DIY videos on these, I was able to install with no issues. I've had them installed for 2 weeks and have had no issues. I can check them through the app which is very convenient. I also like how it easily connects with my nest thermostat so that the system runs together and allows me to keep track of everything.

Love the Google N'est Protect, very easy to install and setup with the app, and best of all it never chirps in the middle of the night because of low battery!

Met and exceeded my expectations. I bought 2-they communicate, and the app lets me shut it down if no fire, and it checks CO as well. I.plan to buy more.

I like this product. It was easy to set up and configure. The night light feature is great as long as its not in a bedroom, but you can turn it off if it is.

House wired wrongly and Nest solves that issue

All of my smoke detectors were NOT interconnected. about 1/2 are connected on one circuit and 1/2 on another circuit. This creates an issue where alarm will NOT sound throughout the house in case of a fire. To fix it would have cost > 1500. Buying Nests to replace these old smoke detectors resolved the problem and all are now interconnected. Adding other features like CO monitor, ability to silence alarm when my wife is cooking :), and lighted pathways in hallways make this a great buy for my circumstances.

I recently added a Nest to my house and when i was spring cleaning i had to change the batteries in my smoke detectors. Little did I know smoke detectors have expiration dates. So instead of just buying new smoke detectors and invest in the nest protects. I am glad I did. They integrate with the nest app. They have carbon monoxide detectors built in as well and cool night lights that sense motion at night. Another benefit to getting the nest protects is calling your homeowners insurance. State farm gave me a 10% discount on my homeowners insurance!

I am slowly replacing all of the smoke alarms in my house with Nest Protect. They provide a number of advantages over regular smoke alarms. 1. They test themselves regularly and let you know if they aren't working correctly.
2. They talk to you if there is a problem to let you know where it is so you know how to get out of the house safely.
3. They communicate with my Nest Thermostat to turn off the A/C if there is a fire so you don't feed air to a fire.
4. They provide a nice night light that detects motion and turns on to help guide you in the dark.

Great unit does not go off accidently. It also has an app so if I burn something in the kitchen I can turn it off with the app. Expensive but good.

I am very happy with my purchase. Very easy to install. I like how I have the capability to see warnings on my phone, when I am not home. I have a few others that I purchased in that past, and I do like that they have the capability to be connected to each other. One alarm goes off, it will announce through the others telling you where the warning is coming from. The motion light option turning on, if it was installed in a dark area, is a great option as well.

For a smoke alarm they are little pricey but what you get for the price is peace of mind and are very easy to install and set up.
They all link together and the night lite feature is great, They also connect to my Phillips lights to warn you of an alarm and so you can also see your way out of the house at night

Feeling safer with Nest Protect throughout

I'm slowly converting all of my smoke alarms over to Nest Protects. They install in less than 5 minutes! They are much better than standard smoke alarms - First, they are also CO2 detectors. Additionally, they test themselves monthly and let me know if there are problems. They talk to me to tell me where the alarm is in the house so I'm not trying to home in on a screeching tone. They will notify my Nest Thermostat to turn off the HVAC so the airflow doesn't spread the fire. Finally, they have a nice night light glow that helps me get around at night.
