We were very leary updating our wifi because we are not very tech literate. We were told it would be easy to do just follow the app. So we followed the app and installed the three units as directed. I did not know how to get my laptop online. So I called the company and spoke to a rep. I did not know what the security key was that I needed to type into the box. He told me to use my password. How easy was that? So it is as easy as the directions say. If we can install the product anyone can. It has made the wifi signal stronger in our home.

I am a software engineer and I've been researching for a good mesh router to cover a home of about 3700 sq ft and I think I couldn't have found anything better! The router works great, gives you remote access to control your router, has intelligent traffic routing, eliminates dead spots in the home no matter where you are in or around & performs at a high level. You can also prioritize traffic for devices. It has many nifty features that I think are a great addition. Google stands by their product with regular updates. It's been 3 months and couldn't be happier.

Having gone through multiple extenders, routers, repeaters - you name it - in the past few years, I bought this in the hope that I would finally solve the issue of spotty or intermittent signal strength in my two bedroom turn-of-the-(19th) century flat. PROBLEM SOLVED! This solution has been fantastic - super user-friendly, easy to set up, exceptional and consistent signal strength - I finally have a steady wi-fi signal in the bedroom, the study, the living room and the kitchen. Two thumbs up!

I have been very pleased with google wifi. We switched internet providers and had to have the modem/router in a part of the house that was not ideal (due to where the cat5 cable entered the house)and we were getting really poor reception in some areas. Installing the google wifi system improved everything enormously. It was extremely easy to setup and I can check it on the app from my phone. We have had it for about two months and really have not had any problems at all. I also really like that it switches automatically between 2.4 and 5Ghz

We placed the small appliances around the house and no longer struggle waiting for pages to load on any of our devices. Definitely surprised at how well these work and how easy it was to install and connect through our Internet provider modem.

This takes whatever internet server and turns it into the best service. Before we purchase this items we had multiple “dead spots” and could not use more then 2 devices at a time, now we can run multiple devices and no longer have dead spots:)

I was using a Motorola modem/router combination previously. The highest wifi speed I ever had was 57 Mbps. I have now turned off the router function and am using google wifi instead. My average speed test results are 110 Mbps!! It just works.

Was hesitant to purchase this as a replacement for my FiOS router, even after reading all the glowing reviews. But I took the plunge and I’m so glad I did! I literally had this up and running within five minutes of taking it out of the box. It was so super simple! And I love the fact that you can control it via an app, and give priority to whatever device you’re using at the time so that it gets the fastest speed. I would recommend this to anyone looking to save fees on router rentals through their cable company.

Can’t be easier to set-up. Just make sure you have a mobile phone to download the app you need to manage the install. Start up the app and follow the directions. Great admin controls right in the app as well to shut off the WiFi for you kids!

After having tried several solutions to the problem of getting an adequate signal to the living room of our old and large house we decided to purchase the Google Wifi AC1200 Dual Band Mesh system in the three pack format. The set up went relatively easy although I did have to contact support once. The tech at support was quick to detect a software problem and just as quick to correct it. Now, our 4000 sq. ft. old house with several chimneys has a strong Wi-fi signal throughout. Happiness now reigns.

After putting up with constant buffering, slow downloads in our home and no WiFi signal in my shop with our old router, we purchased the Google WiFi 3 pack in November. Set up was a breeze and done in about 15 minutes. (Sorry, Geek Squad, I got this!) Over the holidays, we had several family members visiting and they all had their notebooks, phones, etc. No problem at all! I have to say that we are extremely pleased with this product and would highly recommend it to anybody! Add to that, the price was more than reasonable! A real bargain!

I've used extenders before and they require having multiple access points which is a pain if you have devices that all need to be in a single wifi network. Also, the wifi that came with my FIOS router was bad and would drop connection all the time. Now with one google wifi point off a network cable to the router and then the other 2 nodes with wifi access using a single ssid makes adding new devices a breeze. The app to support the google wifi mesh is great. It gives you stats on every device and will measure download and upload speed for you. I didn't give it a 5 star because if devices connect using different bands some functionality seems to be lost. My LG TV work, but when I try to detect it from my phone to cast directly to it, it isn't found. I have Chrome cast so it isn't a big deal, but I couldn't give it a 5 star.

Google WiFi was really easy and simple to setup, I was done setting up all 3 in under 10 minutes. After setup, I tested the speed throughout the house and even outside, I was surprised how well the network worked without dropping packets.

I have alot of walls in my house and was having issues with wifi strength with my ISP's provided router so I thought I'd give them a try. Ever since I got these I haven't had any issues with wifi signal I straight up still have signal with these when I'm a football field away at the end of my road. I run 10 devices on these at a time daily and they handle the load like Champs I highly reccomend these for anyone with a 2 story house or a home with alot of walls.

I previously had wifi extenders but decided to replace my router and the extender with these. The setup was easy, as simple as plugging in two cables, downloading the app, and following the directions. I would definitely recommend these.

So far extremely satisfied with this device. Setup is extremely simple and the interface of the Google Wifi mobile app is very user friendly and filled with a good amount of personal features for everyday use. I can't personally speak for an enterprise user but in my 1 bedroom apartment, it more then covers every square inch or my place plus more.
Pros:
Easy Setup
Great Range
Tons of features which are easy to setup
Con:
For people concerned with privacy, you do need a google account to manage the device.
