Looking to upgrade the smoke detectors in a 1400 sq foot 3br house. I think I’ll need 4 of them. I’d like something that is easy to silence when I’m cooking, and can alert me to problems when I’m not there.

Google Nest Protect is recommended, but at > $100 per each they are quite expensive.

Worth it?

    Not really, first alert will probably have a black friday sale on their wave smoke/co sensors last year was like 25 a unit.

    Smoke detectors have a finite lifespan of 10 years so nests are about a buck a month a pop.
