I've had mine for about two months. So far great.

Appearance: I took some pictures when I first received it so you can see exactly what I received. I’ll upload them with this review.
Construction: Very well constructed. The main unit and antennas are made from strong plastic.
Functionality: I hooked up this in place of my TP-Link 3200 model in order to test its performance. It preformed just as good as my 3200. The only difference in the models is 50mb in bandwidth and the 3200 have two 5GHZ lines so I was expecting this result. I’m able to run a PS4, XBOX one, 2 laptops, 1 desktop, 2 mobiles, 1 tablet, 4 Raid devices (huge personal online drives), printer, and more. I generally have all these devices running at once besides the PS4 and Xbox One and I usually am streaming plus downloading something. I also have two family members who occasionally log onto my network. I never have any problems with bandwidth. I also get a solid 1000 ft. though walls. The USB ports allow for linking of printers and standalone hard drives.
Negatives: Nothing negative was observed.
Noteworthy comments: Setup with TP-Link routers is incredible easy. Anyone with the most basic computer skills can easily set one up in under 5 minutes from cutting the tape on the box.
Would I recommend to a friend and family? Yes, I’d recommend this product to friends and family.

Worked well to extend my network

I’ve had a problem for the last couple years when I’d play basketball in my driveway. My Internet connection would cut in and out because I was at the limit of my signal. With this extender plugged into my garage I can now listen to music and have Wi-Fi throughout my entire driveway to my mailbox and even get full signal around my pool, which I never had before.
The installation was easy, taking less than 5 minutes before I was ready to plug it into my garage. I love that when you set it up and pair it, you can then plug it anyway else that within the original signal to significantly improve your Wi-Fi signal’s radius.
It’s also good that it works with any wireless router regardless of the service provider.
You set this up without pressing any buttons on router too. You can use Ethernet, WPS, or Wi-Fi and using your computer or cellphone pair it via a website provided inside the package you will receive. There is also a step-by-step instructions sheet
I would like to say that I did receive this product to test through a promotional offer. I was asked to provide my experience after using it for a few weeks and my experience is what you've read here today. I hope my experience helps you.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good range extension
on May 22, 2015

Pros:
1. It is capable of simultaneously linking a 2.4GHZ network and a 5GHZ network. Previously to upgrading to this model, I was only able to extend one network with my extender.
2. It works. It was recommended that I place it half way to the dead zone but I placed mine at the edge of the dead zone and I got full bars by the extender and a good few feet further.
3. Setup was a breeze. 5 minutes from unboxing to all green lights plugged in at its new location, extending my network.

Additional Comments:
1. It looks a lot cooler than my old extender and it takes up less size than I think all the models that I looked at when I purchased my other model.

Lose download speed thru the router?
I have an old Netgear wireless router that when I hard wire connect my laptop through it, I lose over 50% of the speed, than if I had direct connected to my cable modem. I have comcast power boost, and can only get 5.4 mps thru the router, but almost 15 via direct connect to cable modem.
I use hard wire in and out and I've used Wi-Fi. I noticed no lag.
