Short answer: Yes, it's very good.
Long answer: it's super simple to set up but you don't have many settings to tinker with. It's designed to just work...for people who don't have the time or inclination to tinker. It does have some drawbacks in terms of depending on Google's cloud to be managed but I've never had an issue in over five years of using various models.

Our wif coverage at home is pretty poor, connections are slow upstairs and the signal doesn’t reach the garage. I’m guessing a Mesh system will help fix it.
Knowing nothing about these things, I’m looking for something easy to set up.
Is the Google Wi-Fi kit any good? It’s n offer for Black Friday so thought it was worth a look.
I’ve currently got BT broadband with their home hub. With the Google stuff would I just need to add one or two of these?

Or would need one of these as well?
