I bought this set because my old mesh router died. This is rated for 4400 square feet, so I figured the two would suffice. The set covers my house very well (3600 sq ft) and was easy to set up All my devices connected seamlessly. You may want to move the satellite one around a little so you cover your place optimally.
Note that they both look the same and I assume they work identically, although one is going to be the connection to your Internet service, so the other one will serve as the satellite access point.

After previous router extender purchases that were difficult to set up with minor improvement, Google made these easy, and my pair found each other even at opposite ends of the house. Perhaps my situation worked because I have wired ethernet from my router to each of these, which as a pair, provide a new wifi mesh address, stronger signal than my router. I didn't have to readdress any of my current wifi devices, but now my phone gets wifi at a larger range. As long as the little white light is steady on the front, they are working fine. However a couple of times I find a flashing light, which means a disconnect, but a power unplug/replug resets it. Overall very pleased, I only wish these were available in black.

The units were a bit heavier than they look but not too bad. It was an easy basic setup. I have a 3 level home including basement. I placed 1 on the top floor and 1 in the middle section and the speeds are consistant on every level of my home. All of the outdoor cameras have no issues connecting to the wifi and the video quality was a bit better as well. My only issue was the 2nd unit, not connected to the modem, went out 2 seperate times needimg a restart. Since then it hasnt done it again. Maybe the crash report sent the issue to google and fixed with an update. I'll never know. I would buy again but get on sale if possible.

Very easy to setup. The 2 pack adds enough coverage for my house and yard. I can finally use the Fiber Optic internet speeds I've been paying for!

We use the google nests for several of our businesses and houses. They work seamlessly, and the app is easy to use to check the status of the devices. They provide good coverage, and if hardwired they work really well.

I love the ease of use of Google Wifi. I'm happy with the speeds these can provide on WiFi 6 and device management is very easy in the home app. My only issue is with the strength of the mesh system. I occasionally have low mesh strength but my devices are only ~35 feet away on a single story. This is within the 2-3 rooms away recommend but I don't buy that this would cover a 2200 sqft 2 story home.
Hey there, Jonah. Thank you for choosing Nest Wifi Pro. We're delighted to hear that you're having an awesome time when it comes to managing the devices using the Google Home app. Your feedback on the signal strength is appreciated and we would like to help improve on that. Congestion issues may be affected by various factors, including Wi-Fi interference and physical barriers, which can limit the range of your internet. We recommend placing your device within a line of sight to improve signal reception. For example, if the far end of your house has weak Wi-Fi, it's advisable not to place a mesh router in that exact spot. Instead, position it halfway in that direction. Placing it in an elevated position, such as on a shelf, can also help. For more detailed information, please refer to this help guide: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7182840

This mesh router set up just works. Easy set up using Google home app on your phone. And options are clear and easy to use. Using an actual lan wire ensure the other node has full bandwidth. Plus capability to buy more nodes is a plus.

I've had the Nest WiFi Pro installed in my home for a week now and they have been amazing. I bought the 2-pack and have one on each floor to cover my whole house well. As soon as I installed these I instantly saw a difference. I have a big smart home (lots of devices) and I have a couple cameras that are outside. My previous router (the original Linksys Velop) was about 6 years old and started showing its age. My cameras weren't getting the strongest connection anymore and a couple of my Lifx smart lights were becoming very slow to respond to commands. As soon as I had both of my Nest WiFi Pro installed all of my connection issues disappeared. My cameras are no longer struggling to show me live views and my lights are all lightning fast to respond. A few things that I really like about the Nest WiFi Pro are that you can turn the status light on the front of the routers off if you don't want that white light shining (especially if you have your router out in the open), I like that you can perform a speed test on the individual devices that you have connected to your router and not just the main router's speeds from the modem, and I really like that there is a setting to be notified every time a new device is added to your network. This is great for me knowing that the Leviton smart dimmer switch that I just installed last night has been properly connected, but it can also let me know if a device that I am unaware of has gotten onto my network and I can immediately block that device from accessing my network further. I would say the only thing I don't like about these routers is that the 2-pack only comes in white. I think I would have liked a different color, but that is just a cosmetic thing. It has no influence on the performance of the router.

It is literally plug and play. It is a great product and it sets up all buy itself. Just make sure if you are an AT&T customer to disable both 2.4 and 5 GHz transmitters from the AT&T router before you plug it in. It sets it's self up with just a few taps from the Google Home app. Definitely a must and it's coverage is great. I would say better than the Nighthawk.

I give it 5 stars on the simple setup by itself. I had the previous generation which was good but this version is better. We have not had any issues and everything is working perfectly. We also have Google Webpass. The speed and flawless system is fantastic. My wife works from home and I do once a week. No issues. Highly recommend.

Really helped boost my coverage. Was having issues with WiFi going through the walls where my Heater was due to all the metal and interferance. I bought this product and have great WiFi coverage since.

Really useful, you connect one of these guys to your router and the other can be placed wherever you want in your house. The setup is fairly simple. My only complaint is if your original router is bugging out, so will the google mesh.

For a cheap mesh system this actually gets the job done. Much faster speeds than my previous Wifi 6 setup. The speeds through the 6e band are quite impressive. Range is also very impressive while the signal strength can be hit or miss, however even when it shows a couple bars, my speeds are rarely noticeably hindered.

The product couldn't be more perfect for our needs. We use google home for our small business and these nests allow us to expand out network around the property when holding ticketed events on our outside stage and when we sell merch outside.

Fantastic mesh network. Upgraded from a first generation eero and it lives up to the expectations. Very easy to setup, easy to use features. Easily covers two stories and a basement.

Mesh Network that Just Works. The setup was simple and using these with my Google Fiber I'm pulling download times of 968mbs and uploads around 944mbs. Fantastic. Just one could actually cover most of my home, but I have one upstairs and one downstairs just to be sure. I get wifi around 10 yards out of the back door.
