Deal Details
This is an incredibly cheap way to get into a Wi-Fi 6 mesh at ~$12/AP. It's dual band only though, meaning no dedicated backhaul channel for nodes to talk to each other, which is expected to bottleneck performance a bit. However, for general use and just boosting coverage, it should be solid, especially for this price.
Note - Factory Reconditioned.

OP add that these are factory reconditioned in the title and description.

These appear to have some DD-WRT and OpenWRT support, but YMMV.

To anyone considering buying these I would suggest spending $20 more for the pro model with two 5 GHz bands.

How are these compared to the Linksys LN1301 that was a woot deal earlier in the year?

The pro models are solid, but only have 2x2/4x4 dual-band configuration, not a tri-band with two 5GHz radios. That 4x4 data pipe is pretty tempting though, but but both models suffer from the issue of no dedicated backhaul.

My bad I was thinking of the 42/4300 models.

They're in completely different leagues. The main challenge with the LN1301 is that it has been out of stock on Woot for ~six months, with only quantities of two or fewer available sparsely. However, hardware-wise the LN1301 is tri-band 2x2/2x2/4x4. The Atlas here is a standard dual-band 2x2/2x2. The extra band on the 1301 means significantly more capacity and less network congestion, unless you're planning on using a wired backhaul via Ethernet cable, then they'd perform about the same. The 1301 also has great OpenWrt support for tinkerers, whereas the Atlas does not. It also comes with more RAM and flash storage (like 4x the capacity), which doesn't make really any difference on the stock firmware, but if you were more custom and did put OpenWrt on there, it'd make a difference.

Hey. Need advice here. My current Nest WiFi is getting worse and I'm thinking to buy these refurbished units as a backup system. Can anyone recommend what system works best for 3500 three stories house. The Atlas pro or Atlas non pro or Velop?

Unfortunately that is only wifi 5 (ac). Regardless of tri band, a modern wifi 6 (ax) router will be much more efficient, especially with multiple devices. More importantly, thanks to OFDMA, wifi 6 can support more stable speeds at greater distances.

The $36 Atlas 6 three-pack would realistically cover a 3-story, 3500 sq ft house if you drop one node on each floor. Just know they're dual-band 2×2, so user traffic and back-haul share the same 5 GHz radio. Expect probably ~50-100 Mb/s on the top floor, the weakest link in your connection, which would be fine for most general use.
Heavy use (say, 3–4 simultaneous 4K streams at 20 Mb/s each on the top floor AP) could potentially choke that 2×2 link. Your other floors would likely be fine though. However, I'd reccomend that If you want faster, more consistent speeds without pulling Ethernet, go tri-band wifi 6 or better. I like the Velop MX4200 or MX5300 sets. They pop up on Woot, cost more usually, but their dedicated 5 GHz back-haul keeps ~70-80 % of your bandwidth at every node (through each floor). They are a bit pricier than the Atlas system here though, where this is $36, and a used Mx4200 or 5300 3 pack is probably around $100 (ebay).
The Atlas Pro 6 sits in between the options here with a wider 4×4 pipe but still dual-band, so floor-to-floor hops can still bottleneck. For seamless multi-floor performance, I'd reccomend you to stick with something tri-band Wi-Fi 6, or just go with this if you dont want to spend the ~$100+ for a tri band system.

Linksys should just make more 1301's at this point. People would buy loads of them for $50, slap openwrt on them, linksys doesn't even have to care about the firmware. They'd print money.
