This is a great addition to any smart home. You can ask it questions and also have it turn off lights or turn them on. Everything works as it should.

Good looking home assistant. Didn't know I need this. Speaker not bad for being such a small device. Found it easy to set up. I'm up to 3 of them at this time.

I have both echo and the google home mini, both are good devices for what they do but the google seems to be able to "answer" more questions or at least with more detail the google device likely will have more connectivity with other internet of things devices

The speaker is actually louder than I expected. Google assistant is by far the best assistant out there. I mostly use it to wake me up but it's very helpful with random questions and controlling other devices.

I have all the gadgets and I like google home the best for the simple reason that it uses google to search for your answers versus Alexa who uses bing. Ask yourself when was the last time you used bing or heard of it being used to search for something. If you ask google home a question, it will answer it versus the others who direct you where to find it. I got it for 29.99 and it was a steal, it has an ok speaker, not as good as the full size one but works great for music and talking to. I control my Christmas tree lights with it and listen to music when I want to. Highly recommend.

Solid sound, doesn’t take up a ton of space. This is a great way to “smartify” your existing speaker setup, as well ... it can connect over Bluetooth.

I wasn't a believer in this smart home eco system stuff but my short experience with the Google mini has made me a believer. The device setup is extremely easy to setup using your phone, I have it currently linked to 2 lights and my TV. It tells me the weather, latest news, turn the lights and TV on and off. For the current price, I consider this a bargain and would definitely recommend for those getting into the smart home. The speaker while playing musicisnt the loudest or punchiest ,it's just fine for its size.
