The google home mini is a cheap add on and is great for controlling Phillips Hue smart lights or a google chromecast

Got this for $30 to add on with existing Google Home setup. Great for bedroom setting alarms and low sound speaker.

This is just as good as the Amazon Alexa if not better. Have told my son and son in law to get one for their wives.

Adding this to our existing Home was a snap. Amazing sound from such a small speaker. The lack of robust touch controls is disappointing but not unexpected after reading reviews.

A nice device that works very well. Similar to the Echo, but I think it's nicer looking. Functionality is the same!

I bought another competitive product first as it released 2nd Generation. Apparently it doesn't answer for simple question.
Google home and home mini is incredible. Answer all the question. I'm really happy that I was able to control light, play music and many more.
I recommend this product and not others.

The sound quality is great on this little booger. The voice recognition is amazing as well. I can be 1 room over and google hears me with no shouting. Easy adjustment touching on the sides of you don’t feel like asking google to turn it up or down. I would recommend this to anyone.
