This is exactly my experience: Dead shortly after the warranty is up. </p><p>$250 for a product that lasts 36 months means the Nest is really a $7/month subscription. Not worth it in my opinion! <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/GoogleHardwareSucks" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GoogleHardwareSucks</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/PlannedObsolescence" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>PlannedObsolescence</span></a></p>
