It really depends on the house. Some will perform better than others. My friend used them and while better than wifi he still had major ping and jitter issues in a fairly new house. Eventually just gave in and ran a 200 foot wire from one end to the other.

I had some tp link ones too back when my router was at the other end of the house. They worked pretty well, even over trailing sockets (not recommended), definitely better than wifi.

 

In the end I took a hammer drill to the walls and ran a cable though. I made lots of holes.
