Do I need a mesh system?

The answer

Only if one router cannot cover your home even after good placement. A mesh system is several units working together under one network name, which can give smoother coverage across floors and in large homes. It is not needed in every house. Before buying, move the router to a central, open, raised spot, connect fixed devices such as a television with a network cable and check for interference. A wired access point connected to the router is another option where cabling is possible.
