Got this for the den in the basement. We have the larger Alexa upstairs and have fun with this. The speaker is so much better on the larger unit but this will e great for the basement.

Small, simple version of my Google Home. Very convenient next to my bed without an intrusive appearance. I may buy more.

Easy to install. Voice response is great and very quick. The mini is loud enough for an open concept kitchen/great room.

We have a dozen of these scattered around the house. Simple, easy to setup and cheap. Smart move google. I don't use Android phones but they make me think twice every time I need to upgrade. I'm sure in time I'll make the full switch to the Google Ecosystem.

It is cool to help keep you organized, and listen to music. The sound is good, and controlling smart devices is a plus.

We love our Google home that was gifted to us! So much, we went out and bought 5 more to place around the house!! I love how they all can be in one home group so when I'm listening to music, it plays simultaneously throughout my home! This does so much and we really love having it!!

If you're automating your home and you really want to get lazy, you need a Google Home. I don't care to play music from, but rather through it to my sound system, as well as use it to get useful information, but most importantly, get lazy and have it turn on and off my lights or start my Neato vacuum. Lazy for the win!

I have one in the kitchen and bathroom. Works great to play music or to turn off hue lights or just ask it the weather.
