"Got my eero 6+ set back out of the box and my smart home has been rock solid ever since."
"since changed to eero been working perfectly fine"
"I have a smart home w many devices, a PC on a cat6 Ethernet and a ps6 on a cat6 never a hiccup, never a delay."

"I set up 6 of them and covered a 2 acre area including a 4 story house, a 4 car garage, another 2 story house, a 2800 sq foot barn and a tiny house."
"I have had good experiences with the Eeros (6+) with MoCA backhaul. I've never had a loss of connection anywhere even once."
"I have two setups in different areas, one covers a massive fucking area because I have a field I mow that's about 20 acres and was able to set up a lot of point to point extension within that. ... At the spot I'm currently at I have about 2 acres covered and trying to push to 4."

"it just works ... I’ve only had to reset my network maybe once or twice in the last few years"
"I replaced the system myself with a new set of 3 Eero 6+ routers and couldn't be happier. ... totally agree. I was amazed at how my connection problems just disappeared."

"Having kids who run everywhere for wifi, eero is simply the best. ... Set it, forget it, and it's simplified my life."
"I’ve had 0 callbacks. ... Follow the app and install it properly from the get-go and you’ll be fine."
"I'm usually terrible with networking related stuff, but this one was a breeze to setup."

"I now have my Maine Eero attached to the utility modem. From the Eero I connect to a switch and ran Ethernet (outside) to each room that has another Eero switch. Each Eero is hardwired to main and provides WiFi in its “zone”."
"Have 2 x Eero 6+ wired up through Ethernet backhaul and they cover my whole 4 bedroom house."

"Sometimes those APs get stuck in an orphaned state and require a physical reboot or even a reset and new set up."
"The more eeros the more problems. ... I did this myself I have 4 of them and it’s a mess. ... I’m now only running two of them and it’s much faster."
"But alas, the handover between the eero's was incredibly slow. ... If using them in their separate rooms, as 2 independent WiFi units, fine. But if having them as mesh, as previously mentioned, one needs to be upstream."

"100-200mbit speed tests - reset - they go to 700-800mbps then slowly get slower over time ... the constant poor speeds our housemates got sick of occurring after weeks or months ... I spend more time resetting them to get to work than I do enjoying using them ... seems weird that I have the keep resetting the network to keep the speeds up"
"The mesh can be unreliable. ... After a disconnect it can a long time to reconnect."
"I gave up, went to Eero, they had massive firmware regressions and no way to roll back"

"And some features are blocked behind a paywall like for example going to a list of which devices consume more data on a day and so on."
"Amazon does seem to have some subscription based functions in the router firmware 99.99/year for eero+ features such as VPN, content controls, user management, etc. ... I typically won’t buy products that want you to pay a subscription to make full use of the hardware already purchased."
"constant upsell for features that I believe should be standard"

"The Pro 6E, for instance, has one 2.5gb and one 1gb port. You need to choose between more internal bandwidth or handling up to 2.5gb internet bandwidth but limiting your internal wired devices to 1gb."
"Shouldnt need to be a tech guru to get speeds out of something that’s supposed to be simple."
"If you like to tinker with your network settings, there aren’t many settings to play with. ... Still you will not have full access to configure the router the way you want to."

"Eero is very greedy on trying to maximize its own performance at the expense of everything else. ... It works ok if there aren’t any other APs (ie neighbors) nearby, but it sucks ass if you live in dense housing."
403Olds 1.0I have 4 Eeros and all have Ethernet backhauls Recommended
Can you run an Ethernet backhaul to each floor? I have 6+ On 3 floors with backhaul. Very fast.
981cgts 1.0Amazon has the Eero 6+ at Black Friday prices now. I got the 3 pack for $195 a week ago at an early bird rate, which is same as today’s Black Friday price. I have a 2 story 2500 sq ft house and it does as advertised. It took care of every WiFi reach problem I had. I was in my neighbors garage across the street and still had a full signal on my phone!
Alternative_Hippo720 1.0I'd go with [Eero](https://productbible.com/product/amazon-eero-6-mesh-wifi-system). I'm usually terrible with networking related stuff, but this one was a breeze to setup.
arrecebx 1.0Eero 6+ or eero pro 7 if higher budget super easy for average consumer
AssUhTate 1.0Not too concerned with price, just been on the fence on switching to a ubiquiti eco system but I’ve been very pleased with the single 6+ I have now. For only a 100 bucks I’ll snag another 6+ and run an additional Ethernet to the back side of the house for it and see how that helps out before jumping ship.
bryeds78 1.0I'm using the eeroesh system. I have the eero 6+. There's newer versions now, and noticed multiple subnets. You can just buy one and setup a new one as an extender with no issue, or buy one with a network jack and use it as a wired extender. I don't have the eero 6 pro,but I still get nearly 959 or greater for download and 850+ for upload speeds on a 1gb line. On wifie purely it's in the 700 to 800 range. I am a computer person, I understand networking, I'm a solutions architect and know how to troubleshoot so many random things. The EERO system has been insanely easy to setup and has been crazy reliable. Have had eero since 2022 and haven't had a single failure
I use Eero, it's been an excellent mesh solution. Very reliable, easy to setup, easy to add nodes and manage the network. Personally, I can't recommend anything but Eero
You gotta pay to play... A cheap extender may provide some relief but they don't work well over time. Save some cash and buy eero 6+. Nearly plug & play. Use at least 2 of them, one to act as the router for the house, the other to extend it. They work well and are worth it. Google how to set it up and how to find the best placement.
Ceve 1.0I was a fan of my 6+’s and found a good deal on 6e’s. I’m starting to have more 6e devices and upgraded my home network backbone to 2.5 so it made sense. Very happy so far but agree with others, may want to look into the new 7’s for future proofing. Keep in mind the newest router gens are always super inflated price wise, so I always buy a little behind and it’s worked well for me.
Civil-Hawk2627 1.0Eero+ works great for me
danh_ptown 1.0Eero 6+ or newer (size it to your internet speed from the carrier). Eeros are simple and easy to use. They are not designed for tinkerers. If you want a router you can tweak, buy something different.
While this is a useful list, it does not compare each model to the speed of the internet connection. And it is misleading to consumers, assuming that is who you targeted it to, by posting on Reddit. This list is very biased to Wi-Fi standards and not the needs of individuals buying a router/mesh for their home. While carriers are offering faster and faster speeds, not everyone needs it! The vast majority of homes only need the slowest high-speed, but carriers are happy to push higher speeds to people who clearly do not need it! I manage Wi-Fi at 5 homes, including friends and family. In my personal home, I run a network supporting 2 living units, 6 bedrooms, multiple streaming TVs, up to 12 people at a given time, lots of Wi-Fi attached devices. And all of that works fine on a 3-node Eero 6+ with 400MB service. Since 6+ is good to 1GB service, it is more than fine for this network. Cost $300 for 3-nodes 7 Max is $1700 for 3-nodes! Pro is $700. Neither of those are affordable to most people.
dave_two_point_oh 1.0I would absolutely agree with you there, budget allowing. Currently I run two eero 6+ devices (going back in a few days; they belong to my ISP and I'm leaving their area) along with two eero Pro 6 devices (mine, purchased before I switched to my current ISP, which provided the 6+ eeros at no monthly charge). They've all been great devices to run. However, if I were buying today (whether for replacement or just supplementing), I would only look at the various eero 7 options. I probably should have mentioned that, even though it sounded like OP might be looking to spend less!
