Starting August 4, they will have $50 off a four pack, making it $179.99. I don't think I've seen a four-pack for this little (I think the last time it hit $180 it was for the three pack).
Now the question for me is do I get this, or get the TP-Link Deco X60 that goes on sale later this week for $220? I don't think I absolutely need four units, but for $40 less, what am I giving up getting this over the TP-Link?

The X60 is a piling heap of garbage and I would highly recommend avoiding it at all costs. I got it off one of the slickdeals here and I literally had to reset it every day sometimes multiple times a day. TP link support was horrendous and then they wanted me to pay to ship it to them as they deemed it defective.
Just ended up returning to Costco. I now how the Eeros and not a single issue which confirmed my suspicion that the X60s were just terrible. Hope this helps someone

I've set up the Deco X60 for my relatives and it has been stable ever since. I still have the app installed on my phone and it hasn't had any downtime or connection issues. It has been up and running for 4 months now. TP Link is one of the most popular brands out there and they make quality stuff for typical home users and pro stuff for businesses.

Stock firmware appears to be a modified version of Open-WRT and they can use hardwired ethernet for the backhaul.
When I bought they were $40 each (they're currently at $50 now).

Glad it worked for you. It was a nightmare for me just sharing my experience with that model. Look at the one star reviews on Costco for that model I am not alone which is why I gave up and chose to return it.
On a serious note these are the grandfathers of mesh, they are old and outdates. The M9 will run circles around this google set with wireless backhaul and with wired backhaul so it dont matter how you set it up.
I also got the Eero wifi 6 router + 2 beacons pack, but since I have no wifi 6 devices not sure it's worthwhile for me right now and likely will just return it and keep the TPlink. In a couple of years when I do feel the need for wifi 6 I am sure prices will come down more by then.
As mention above, these the grandfathers.
Consider the Eero 6 (ax1800) or TPlink
What about other company like net gear, asus
