What customers say about "Key Specs"

eero 2nd Generation Mesh WiFi System (Pack of 3)

We're getting download speeds in the 80's-90's throughout the entire house.
Coverage and speed are amazing, at least 3X better than my old setup.
Eero gives me peak speed well over 250 Mbps end to end of my home.
Speed is consistently high. Devices that used to hunt for a signal just jump on.
I've got speed and reliability where I used to have neither, and that's plenty.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

eero 2nd Generation Mesh WiFi System (Pack of 3)

The small size makes it easier to stash it in the corner somewhere.
And they look nice - sleek and small. Would definitely recommend.
The devices are quiote small and work great despite having no external antenae.
Physically it’s nearly as small as Airport Express, only slightly bigger, which is very elegant and low profile.
No dead zones; very versatile setup and monitoring; small/unobtrusive; wifi routing with ability to connect via ethernet, and daisy chain same.

eero 2nd Generation Mesh WiFi System (Pack of 3)

Coverage in my house is BETTER and I have had ZERO dropped connections.
It all starts with strong, reliable and secure WiFi coverage!!!
Since installing, I've had zero issues with WiFi coverage.
Coverage issues are not a worry any longer. These pro units are incredibly powerful and do not disappoint in any situation I use them in.
It's a cinder-block house and the 3 worked fantastic and gave whole home coverage.

What customers say about "Features"

eero 2nd Generation Mesh WiFi System (Pack of 3)

Eero app is very polished and makes it so easy to set the system up that a grade schooler could do it.
Eero set up was easy via the app and it found the satellites with no issues.
The app detected it and configured it for my network quickly and automatically.
The wifi range is really fantastic, and the iOS app is fairly good as well.
The app is awful and for all the information they pretend to give you you really get nothing.
