Just bought a new house in the burbs. Want to get solar. I assumed Tesla was a good company to get them through.

Does anyone have (a non-political) opinion on Tesla Solar? And/or how I should think about getting panels (and battery) installed at my house?

Friend ordered the solar roof (the solar panels that look like shingles), and after waiting a year switched to their regular solar.

From my conversations it was a complete mess to get installed, with poor communication on their end. After it was installed he had 2 issues within 2 years resulting in them needing to replace hardware.

Add in that it was quite expensive, he is not a happy customer.
