    This Nest detector comes with ample instructions and hardware to make this install quick and easy. Note: The hardwired versions do not have a common connection. This means if your home / apartment has all the detectors wired together so if one goes off, they all go off, the Nest will function independent of that network.

    I actually bought one last year and installed it last September or October. I had to replace two old alarms upstairs and decided to purchase this particular alarm again. It was simple to install by following the directions through the app.

    I would recommend this Smart Smoke/Carbon Monoxide to anyone. I currently own 2 with plans to purchase 2 more in the future. It also has a Path light(which lights up when a room is dark to see where you are walking), also has a nightly promise which will flash a green ring when the light goes out to let u know its is working.

    The nightlight is great! I like that you can know what is going on even if you are away but they still seem a little high on price for what they do.

    This is a great product. I like the features and the fact that you can use the app to change the night light and keep up with activity history. I also have a harmony remote and when the alarm goes off, everything connected to my harmony remote including the tv, soundbar or even if music is playing, it will mute so the alarm can be heard.

    Exactly what I expected from Google beautiful device that does exactly what it supposed to do. Love being able to check the status when I'm away and it alerts you immediately if it thinks anything is up.

    Owning several homes it is nice to know that there is a reliable product that you can use to monitor and smoke and carbon issues just by a click of a button. It has worked exactly as expected. It is a little pricey, but would definitely recommend the Nest Smoke Detector.

    The product was easy to install. It was defective but NEST customer support was amazing and sent overnight a replacement with a prepaid return for the defective product. With the replacement I have had no issues. I love that it alerts me if the power goes out since I live and the mountains and worry about pipes freezing in the winter.

    This is my last fire/carbon Monoxide Alarm, I will ever buy. Installation was easy and it only took about 15 min per unit. Only downside is it’s tricky if you change your WiFi password. My advice is to snap a photo of the pass key on the inside of the unit and save it Incase you change your WiFi password.

    Was looking to replace our ancient detectors and upgrade to carbon monoxide sensor when I found these. They mounted to the same box the old hardwired sensors were installed in. Installation and setup was easy. The app is easy to use and alerts you when away from home. They also look very attractive.

    Loving the Nest Smoke and Carbon Monoxide unit. My son(10yrs) saw a report on tv about the carbon monoxide being the silent killer and he pointed out that while we already had one we needed one in a new location closer to the source. We really like the night light and if were not home with the app alerts are cats are safe.

    Another great product from Nest. Easy to install and looks great. I like the fact that you can monitor right from your phone and see whats going on. I have several located throughout my home and it alerts you to which one my be going off or low on backup battery not just beeping and driving you crazy.

    I love these little things. Very dense construction of the unit but the back plate is a little flimsy. I love the features on it and I was able to replace the common area detectors with these. Don't have to worry about going off in the middle of the night because of low battery. I preferred the wired to avoid the hassle of a battery.
