In my house, my Internet comes in on the far end of the house, actually over the attached garage, and on the wrong side of a brick chimney for the fireplace. As such router signals have always been kind of an issue. I saw these and I decided to try them, I thought long and hard between getting these and getting the Amazon Eero. I am actually a big fan of Amazon products, but chose to go with these instead. I have one node in the location I described above. I have another node on the lower floor on the same end of the house and another node on the upper floor on the opposite end of the house. I was fully prepared to get an additional node or two, but I didn't need them. I do have them all hard wired to in house Ethernet.
For years, my kids always complained about wifi. It was always very unreliable, especially on the lower floor on the opposite end of the house from where the router was located. The kids rooms were also on that opposite end of the house on the same floor as the router, but even there the signal wasn't great.
Since installing these nodes, I have had no complaints. No matter where anyone is in the house they have a good connection. I did have one node after a prolonged power failure that failed to come up one time. Once it was back up one of my laptops wouldn't connect. I had to read that node to the network. Once I had, then one of my firetv sticks wouldn't connect to the network anymore. When I reset the firetv stick, it ended up getting bricked (I certainly don't blame the router for this). So it was a really weird set of events. I have no idea what happened, but this happened a year and a half of using the network, and after it happened, it has worked fine again ever since.
Other than that one incident, I have been extremely satisfied with it. It just worked. I just never have to think about it which is the complete opposite of the three or four routers I had before this system, which used to overheat. The only problem I do have is I have to log into the network so infrequently, I forget how whenever I do actually need to.
We are a couple of years in now, two years which involved everyone being here and working remotely and going to school remotely and multiple people videoconferencing while simultaneously streaming video and a lot of devices connected. I am so glad I had this system before all that happened.
I also recommended this to a friend of mine shortly after I purchased my system. They had areas in their home with low signal. They are not really technical, but they set it up themselves and have been using it trouble free for a couple of years as well.

Switched from an Apple Router to the new Velop system. I love the performance of the device and the ease in setting the device up. Where the opportunities reside is in the mobile app used for configuring the device. The app take a little longer than I would expect for it load.

For started I have 4 kids and 2 adults in my home, we have close to 50 devices always connected it seems so I needed something to handle that load. I bought Orbi which was straight up trash and returned it for amplfi which had garbage speeds, then returned that for Velop. I have had all 3 units for different periods over the last 6 months, Orbi disconnects all the time. Amplifi has spoty coverage with low speeds, Velop is the ONLY unit I have used so far that has not dropped my connection once and I am still getting blazing speeds no matter where I am in the house. Now the App on the Amplifi was FAR better and Orbi didn't even have one, so the Velop app is right down the middle. The parental controls are a Joke and never seem to work. All my issues with this system are app related and I am sure they will be solved with future updates. This system is clean and no hassle, this is the one to choose! I hopefully it will stand the test of time!

Setup is very easy using the iPhone app. The Velop has improved the WiFi coverage in my home. No more weak signals in the far corners of the house! I have ten WiFi devices and a 100MB internet connection. Throughput has more than doubled when compared to the old 802.11g router.

With the installation of the Velop Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi system I now have internet coverage in parts of my home that previously had NO coverage with a conventional router. Speeds are quite impressive in even to most remote areas of my home.

This product was very easy to setup and the idea of having multiple pods is great. I can setup or two or even three. I can set up all three with different usernames and passwords which is also, great then I do not have to share my username of password, I think it even though it is a little pricey.

I wasn’t happy about the price but after installing it and using it for a week the “sticker shock” disappeared. I used to have dead spots in parts of my house but now I am streaming from every corner of my 2 story 3300 sq ft home. Very please with the performance and setup was very simple.

This is the only system that seamlessly worked in our home (large) to eliminate dead spots and miserable speeds. It was easy to set up (really easy) and has eliminated every wifi problem we've ever had. It even exceeded our expectations by extending to our front & back yard and garage. Worth every penny.

We purchased this router to replace a great router that suddenly stopped working. I was skeptical, but after following the step by step instructions via their phone app installation was a breeze. We have experienced no dropped signals or any difficulties streaming 4k content.

Hi, Chip,
It's odd that even the replacement item has the same issue with the previous one. We'd be more than happy if you will share with us your Ticket Number at [email protected] for us to have a better understanding of your case so this won't happen again. Indicate the link to this post for reference.

This product is amazing. Perfect. I just bought a 3700 square foot house so coverage was my concern until i bought this product. Very easy set up, easy to use and restrict. Best part is when guest come over just turn on your guest wifi and you do not ever have to give out you wifi password. PERFECT!!!

Bought these in Early 2019 with a Geek Squad Plan. Glad I did as they started to fail in late 2020. I still think these are a good product that got a LOT of use considering our household at the time had almost 100 devices including smarthome connected stuff.
Would recommend at a low price point like $300 or less for those that want a mesh system with extremely easy setup using just an app on your phone. For those that want easy setup and better WiFi, go with the Velop WiFi 6 MX5 or MX10.
