Overall Feedback:
77% positive
87% praised the intuitive app, but 13% struggled
The android app interface is really nice and has more features than my previous wifi system. I can do specific features with the app.
The android app interface is really nice and has a lot more features than my previous wifi system. I can now easily separate 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands, isolate IoT devices, rename devices, schedule reboots, etc.
The Deco app is user-friendly and guides you through the setup process step by step, requiring no technical skills or knowledge.
The app for IOS and the web interface are terrible.

There were no issues with the coverage throughout the house, back to the garage, and to the back of the property line.
Coverage is good and roaming between APs works well enough on our household phones and laptops.

89% liked the customizable settings, yet 11% found them limited
Using my own router/firewall and putting the Deco in AP mode resolved the issues.
I configured the system for AP mode instead of Router mode, as I have a dedicated router.
Setting up our new XE75 system was easy and did not require manual control of which bands were operating.
If I had known that there is no web interface available for customization settings, I would have kept my previous setup.
95% found it easy to set up
I found the devices very easy to set up. I downloaded the TP-Link Deco Android app from the Play store and plugged in one of the three routers. Following the instructions on the app, I had one router up and running in a minute.
I find it very easy to set up and connect the product, especially since I have many TP-Link products and connecting them is a breeze.
Setting up the main router and mesh node was easy and only took a few minutes.
80% liked the ability to support many devices, but 20% didn't
I have 30 devices connected including security cameras, smart TVs, gaming computers and many phones. I am not facing any problems.
Devices that support 6 and 6E peaks around 300mbps.
I was able to connect more than 40 devices without any issues.
I have 30 devices connected and I am not facing any problems, indicating that the system can support a large number of devices.

93% appreciated the performance
Our computers and router are running flawlessly and a bit faster now that we have upgraded to the newest TCPIP standard.
I had an issue with the product and contacted TP-Link tech support. Hanson Chan assisted me through the troubleshooting process and efficiently resolved the relatively simple issue. I was impressed with the service provided by Hanson Chan.
I have better coverage in my garage now and the system did not let me down. Despite slower speed than those locations that are close to the modem (>600 Mbps), I still got decent speed which was confirmed by SpeedTest on my laptop at around 200 Mbps, which is reasonable.
For about a month now, the Decos have performed well above my expectations.
87% were impressed with the security features, although 13% weren't
The Deco app offers a step-by-step setup process and complete visibility of the network status and connected devices. TP also provides a security subscription with anti-virus protection/monitoring, parental controls, VPN, etc.
There are additional security features available for a monthly subscription fee like HomeShield, making it a good option to run the router/gateway and Decos in AP mode.
I can schedule automatic firmware updates, which is a security feature of the whole-home-mesh-wi-fi-system.
I ended up getting an additional node to cover the basement. It's part of the beauty that you can add nodes as needed.
