re: Wifi Extender or Access Point to alleviate bad Wifi connection in home?

I have a TP-link extender and it works very well. The advantage of an extender over an AP is the simplicity of setup and maintenance. I really like that the TP-link also has an output to Cat5 so it basically acts as an ethernet bridge for any device that doesn't have Wifi built in (microcell or xbox 360).
The benefit of the AP is more customization and probably better range. The setup is more involved, though and is basically another router to maintain.
I have an extra one of these if you want it.

Does this pick up dual band?
I have a dual band router and same as OP get a weak signal in my bedroom. Could pick this up cheap, but would prefer the 5GHz band due to interference with my baby monitor.
