I bought a refurb Airport Extreme 3 years ago, and I wish In bought it new - as it now rarely shuts down, requiring a manual reboot. I wanted to replace it with another Extreme, but the writing was on the wall, and I didn't want to buy an unsupported product.
It's weird, but I really appreciate that the Airport Extreme looks nice and doesn't look like giant mechanical spider. I've looked at Google Wifi, Eero, and OnHub, but the deal breaker for me is that they only have 1 ethernet port. It's mostly laziness, but I don't want to have to buy a switch. Netgear's Orbi is nice, but I'd rather wait until it actually kicks the bucket before spending $400 on a router.
