We already have Cat6 through the entire house. My office alone has 4 outlets and everything goes to a 16 port Gigabit switch to the Gigabit router. Then, I've got a separate WiFi router and two more that function as access points. Coverage is excellent now for the whole house and the yard, except for WiFi in my office which is not a problem for me. And it's not like the office can't see any WiFi, the only problem spot is low on one wall which happens to be where the rack lives, but that area has a wired connection and an 8 port Gigabit switch.
Rather than an expensive mesh network, I'd just get an inexpensive AC1900 WiFi router and configure it as an access point if I ever get a smart phone and found it necessary.
