"Eero has probably the best mesh products on the market today. ... It's a solid performer and designed for the person that isn't tech-savvy and does not want to tinker with the network."
"The eero mesh system is pretty foolproof and great for users who don’t want to tinker. ... I highly recommend it for people who just want to plug their router in and forget it exists"

alan_grant93 1.0We bought an Eero system (one primary, two “beacons”) when we bought our house and signed up with NextLight in 2018. We had some problems in the spring, so we upgraded our Eeros to two Eero 7 Pros. They’re great. Most devices are 2x faster just by swapping out our system. Eero is dead-simple to set up and there’s just about zero management.
molten_dragon 1.0What generation of Eero? I had the 1st gen system for several years and never had any issues with it. I updated because of how outdated it was. I also went Deco with the most recent set and I'm very happy with it.

speedlever 1.0Lol. I have a unifi setup in my house with a poe switch and 3 unifi APs: ac-lite, ac-pro, ac-hd. It used to be powered with a usg3p router until it died several years ago. During the interim while I decided on a replacement router, I connected an old eero cupcake as the gateway router for my symmetric GB ftth service. With my network back up, I decided to buy a unifi udm-pro router. Meanwhile, the old eero cupcake has performed so well I've never even opened the udm-pro box. I have zero complaints and love the simplicity and effectiveness of the eero cupcake. I've never noticed any loss of performance either. 🤷♂️
ThisMattreddit 1.0I have a multi story home too. I would recommend trying to do some cabling if you can. With that said we've had great Eero performance for years. Started with the first gens, have some 6th gen now with a mix of wireless mesh and cable back haul.
vanessi_ 1.0i got my first eero with superloop a few years ago and bought 2 more to fit in the house i was renting at the time. immediately loved it and wont ever go back to a non-mesh setup, and have used it everywhere since (moved to a few more different houses since then) i had to leave one at my mums so i went on fb marketplace and bought an eero6 for pretty cheap, and works extremely well with the 1st gen node i have. recommended it to my friends and they seem happy with it. i’d recommend checking out fb marketplace or amazon for older gen’s as they still work really well
Wellcraft19 1.0Still running that original Eero from 2017 (a number of nodes). Works great. Supports the 300/300 fiber w/o issues.
BoldSpaghetti 0.5If you have to wireless mesh, eero is really good in my experience. Setup is painless and it just works, I’ve only had to reset my network maybe once or twice in the last few years. As others mentioned, if you can do wired backhaul then that’d be ideal.
Bridge_The_Person 0.5Yeah, I wish this was made clearer. And you’re sort of stuck if you can’t upgrade your router. EERO has a router that’s bundled with the Ring security system, so it’s all literally one piece of hardware so I can’t get rid of my router without ditching the security system that otherwise works great for me. It’s really kept me from playing because I don’t know if it’ll be a “good” or “bad” router day.
Curious_Party_4683 0.5Eero is pretty good. it has both 2.4 and 5 ghz. mesh networking so you get super strong signal everywhere. including the bathrooms lol. easy to set up as seen here [https://youtu.be/ooGnTxTXmRg](https://youtu.be/ooGnTxTXmRg) basically you need ethernet backhaul as mentioned

hybroid 0.5A mesh network would be ideal for this layout. You only need 2 pods, one plugged into router (and disable its built-in wifi), and another at the laptop corner to cover your whole flat. You can also hardwire the TV into it if you stream high-resolution content often for more stable connection. Amazon’s ‘eero’ products are simple to use and reliable. Often on deep discount during sale periods.
