What are acceptable WiFi signal strengths

Hi Experts,

I'm trying to determine what you would consider to be acceptable Wi-Fi signal strengths. on the web, I see different ranges all reporting differently. Any suggestions would be great.

Windows 10
SonicWALL with sonicpoints

Thanks.

Do keep in mind that any guidelines are generally based on open plan office with WiFi in central spot.
As soon as you start adding in walls of various materials, the range can be severely impacted.

I generally get a Blue Print of the house with materials listed, and do my research as to what appliance would work best under those conditions.
Generally end up with something like Cisco for the tricky environments.
