Was not sure if I would ever use it but we use it a lot. From just asking weather, time and seeing timers for the kitchen to playing Christmas music over the holidays. Looking forward to using it more going forward.

Bought this for my teen son for his birthday and he loves it. He enjoys listening to music and keeping up with the weather. Very simple to connect and works great.

No Bluetooth transmitting, but it can be grouped with multiple minis combined with Chromecast audio units as a group.

I was skeptical about bringing in a smart assistant into the house, but when a set of Phillips Hue lights came bundled with a free Google Home Mini, I was compelled to give it a try. The charcoal Home Mini represents my second one. I enjoyed the first one so much, I needed to expand the range into the bedroom so I could yell out "Ok Google, turn off all the lights" from the comfort of my bed. I find myself asking Google to do all sorts of things, from setting alarms and timers, telling me how long it will take to drive somewhere, or telling me how long to cook a baked potato in an Instant Pot. I've even directed her to play music, but this isn't the best sounding speaker out there (it's good for prioritizing laziness over sonic quality). If you're steeped in the Google ecosystem, she can even make calls and send messages on your behalf (I'm in the Apple world so I haven't tried this). Overall, this little gadget balances convenience and price and becomes so addictive, you'll want to sprinkle multiple Mini's all over your house.

I bought this on sale and love it , user friendly and like it better than my Echo alexa, more user friendly and I’m surprised at how loud it can get. Only issue the volume changes from time to time . It’s compact and fills me Bedroom with sound and I ask it to play music for 30 mins then shut off when I go to sleep .
