    Purchase as a present for my mother in law who has been catching up with tech. She loves it as much as I love mine. We have replaced must our light bulbs to smart one and now we don’t even turn off the switches since we have programmed all the lightbulbs to turn on and off throughout the day. One complaint I have but not really is that both my kids use it to cheat when doing homework asking for answers. Have recomendable to friends and family. Must have 2020 we live in the future.

    Great little speaker. For the price the sound is good enough but the real reason to buy is Google Assistant.

    For those looking to buy into Google’s smart home ecosystem, the Home Mini is the cheapest way of buying into the Assistant yet. While it is a good value for the price, its poor sound performance makes it a better desk buddy than a standalone speaker.

    Everything works great and it was a fantastic price but it is limited by Google Assistant's shortcomings (e.g. I wanted it to turn on music daily at 6am and turn it off at 9am from my phone Google Home app). There is currently no way to schedule that.

    I have both an Alexa and the Google home - Google Home is much faster with responses and I love that it sources Google without having to ask it to (obviously). Both work well with Philips Hue but I would say, again, that Google Home is faster with it!

    We are starting to put these all over our home. We love them and the Hub for our kitchen. I only wish they would improve 2 things. First, speaker quality. I wish I didn't have to buy better speakers for our house, however I understand this is made more for an assistant in a small package, and not really for good audio quality. The other is I wish it worked better with non-smart bluetooth speakers. I have not yet found a way to add my vizio speaker bar to my speaker group, however we do plan on buying smart speakers from other makers.

    its hard to imagine how much power this little thing packs. I was truely impressed by its performance compared to some of the competitions. My only concern is the general use of WIFI and all the radiation with the increase of home automaton products.

    We've bought multiple Google homes over the years. We love it, it's easy to use and is pretty good at recognizing our voice. I love how smart Google AI is with a few exceptions.

    Bought this for Christmas presents as White Elephant gift exchanges. This gift was the most stolen item during gift exchange. Didn't realize thge potential and questions to be asked of this item. Had to buy 5 more so everyone in the family now Jas a personal assistant. Not perfect but sure is loads of fun and the best gift to give or receive.

    I was walking around in Best Buy and ended up talking with one of the employees in the store and they recommended this item to me and so I decided to pick it up and have been loving it! I love how it integrates with so many things that I need it to.
