Is Google WiFi a solution to my issue?

I have an ASUS AC68U router running the Merlin firmware and it's working great. However, the router has to be placed at one end of the apartment, and devices on the other end sometimes have issues connecting to the WiFi (these are small "smart home" devices).

Would adding the Google WiFi to my setup, use it as a range extender, work? Or is it overkill? It's $10 off right now (deal ends today).

Actually, reading on SmallNetBuilder there appears to be much better performing devices for not a lot more (for example Tenda MW6 Nova Whole Home Mesh WiFi System for $50 more).
