Default wireless routers and/or powerline adaptors

Got a question:
Here is the situation:
I have a house, two story, with the cable highspeed hookup located upstairs on the south side of the house.
I have two other buildings, one is a couple hundred feet south of the main house, and the other is maybe 250 feet south west.
All buildings are on the same meter, though all have their own elec panels or subpanels.
I want to have wireless access in all buildings.
The main house is a nobrainer; I think any a good wireless router should work, but I have been reading about these powerline adaptors either as an alternative or adjunct to the wireless router, and was thinking I might need some kind of boost to reach the other buildings.
I am having trouble distinguishing the hype from the reality about these products.

Anybody have any experience with these or advice or suggestions to offer me before I go shopping ... I surely will appreciate it.

Thank you in advance for your help.
