About Nest WiFi Point Genie: The Simplest Lowest Profile Outlet Holder Mount for Google Nest WiFi Point
Overall Feedback:
73% positive
75% praised the intuitive app, but 25% struggled
I gave it a 4 out of 5 rating because it is not compatible with the Google Nest router.
68% praised the coverage area, but 32% found dead spots
I bought the Google Point wifi extension because I was not getting good service in the kitchen of my old apartment.
I used to search for a signal 25% of the time, but now I never search for a signal.
The product is a neat package hanging from the outlet without any wires.
I suggest adding a larger holder option for the main unit.
82% liked the customizable settings, yet 18% found them limited
The only issue I faced with the mesh Wi-Fi system was its protruding design from the outlet, which required me to be creative with its placement due to my pets.
90% found it easy to set up, while 10% had trouble
I found it easy to install the Nest Point in the Holder and hang it from a standard duplex outlet.
I found the setup quite easy and was able to mount the devices using the outlet instead of drilling.
The setup process was quick and easy, taking less than 30 seconds.
The product is easy to install, but there is a limitation that the Google Nest Router does not fit on this, only the WiFi points because the router is slightly larger. The cabling is manually looped on the back of the mount to be flush against the wall. It would be great if there were grooves on the back to guide the cabling for someone a bit obsessed with things being neat.

I think this product is a good addition for placing Google Nest WiFi points, but it needs some improvements in thickness and grooves for cable management.
I gave the product a 4 out of 5 rating because it is not compatible with the Google Nest router.
84% appreciated the performance
The design keeps the profile low and cost down.
I found the optimal location for the best signal strength to be in the hallway.
76% were impressed with the security features
I recommend using the ground support attachment for additional support via the 3rd pin.
