Just beginning to explore the smart home technology. This was a black Friday buy. For the price I could not pass it up. Hopefully it doesn't go the way of Betamax.

Works better with multiple devices throughout the home. Don't have to scream across the house can just broadcast to individual speakers at the kid's Room. Great toddler entertainment. Works well with Chrome cast TV's android T v's. Just a great Investment to have

This google home is awesome. Really fun to use and provided great feedback on questions you have. No longer do these things just answer questions but so much more.

For the size it has and the price, the speaker performs pretty well.
The main shortcoming appears when you try to play music in languages different from English.

If you're fine without a display this product is very good. Picks up your voice well and pretty good response. Nice volume. We have 3 and set up a home group to play throughout the house. We also use the intercom feature. Connects well with other Google based speakers.

I have some echos as well and find this to not only look better but to recognize regular speech better than the echos. There are also WAY less instances where it thinks it hears its wake word and proceeds to talk. This happened in the echo where I was watching a movie and there was nothing remotely sounding like Alexa or gun, but it chimes in and said “I’ve added a gun to your amazon wish list”. WTH indeed.
This still has a way to go but overall is a much better start than the echo has been. Sometimes it’s answer is too in depth and will explain for a minute when a short answer will work.

It is great to have in every room. The kids love it and we all use it instead of our alarm clocks now.

if you want to have a smart home this is a must.. the small size means you have this anywhere in your home, the design is minimalist and will not ruin your rooms decor.. the ease of use is great and it can control everything from your phillips hue lights to chromecast devices
