    Already owned the nest thermostat. Pricey but very cool. I use the nightlight feature every night.

    Overall, install was ok. I had one alarm where the drywall was cut too big and so the small plate that came with the Nest became recessed and I couldn't screw on the actual alarm. Wish they included some hardware for this. Had to sort out a spacing solution. Connected easily to the Nest app without issue. I have some concerns about the Consumer Reports rating on these but it's just one part of a layered solution for smoke and CO that we have, so I'm happy overall. I definitely prefer that talking alarm as opposed to the chirps, beeps, and sirens.

    I bought these to replace the builder grade detectors. You know the ones that chirp at completely random times and go off in the middle of the night for no reason even after batteries are changed and there's been no power outages. Apparently they were junk because the Nest detectors have been working great! They are very pleasant which is a weird thing to say about smoke detectors but yeah, we now sleep safe and sound.

    I have this smoke detector in my living room and it blends well with the ceiling, I like that is square and flush, and as far as function is a smart smoke detector that talks...Not exited about the talking function.

    Got this to add to my Nest Ecosystem. Nice to know of a fire, or Carbon Monoxide is present even when I’m away from home. With either, the nest system will shut down the Heat or AC when it senses something to stop the possible spread of smoke or carbon monoxide while I am home. And if it’s a false alarm, it’s nice to be able to shut the smoke dectector off from my phone.
