When CNET reviewed Amazon’s Eero Pro 6E Mesh Router, our advice was to wait for it to come down a bit from its steep price tag. If you’ve been waiting, now is your time. Black Friday deals are here and prices are being slashed across the board. The Eero Pro 6E Mesh Router is currently on sale for $160, down from its regular $250 price. This makes it not only a great upgrade to your current home network but also a solid holiday gift for someone in your life who could use a little Wi-Fi stress relief.
The Eero Pro 6E has a coverage area of up to 2,000 square feet, high speed and WPA2 and WPA3 security. You can connect up to 100 gadgets to this one router, and if you need more you can connect multiple Eero to create a mesh network with ease. That having been said, it doesn’t have an option of limiting Eero’s data collection. For more, read CNET’s full review of the Euro Pro 6E.
If you’re looking for more coverage, the multi-packs are down to record lows, too. The two-pack mesh routers covers up to 4,000 feet of space and are down to $260, saving you $140. This makes each router only $130. For even more coverage, the three-pack is enough for up to 6,000 feet of space and is are now $350, taking an impressive $200 off the retail price. And finally for really big spaces, the four pack can handle up to 8,000 feet of space and is now only $510. Although pricey, it’s a savings of almost $300 and each ones comes out to just $128.

Why this deal matters
Like most high-end routers, Eero products tend to see significant discounts during big shopping events. The last time we saw this router discounted was during Amazon’s October Prime Day sale. At that time, the single-router option was $160, just like it is now. But now we’re also seeing record lows on other options like the multipacks. This likely won’t go on sale again for a while, so if you’re interested, we recommend snagging yours now.
