    If you want a smart assistant in your house the Google is the way to go. Fast, easy and seem less and it can do a lot as well as pair with other Google home minis too

    I have yet to maximize the capabilities of this device, so it's just a light-switch for me right now, but over time as the technology improves and my home gets smarter, i'm going to enjoy having this a lot.

    This is my 3rd Google Mini. Came free with our Nest+Sensor purchase. Easy to set up. Wish Google was more human-like and more connected to daily needs. We mainly use for weather and home automation. Other than that it still feels like a robot you are talking to

    Basically bought it to try, had a great experience with Alexa, why not? Great for quick translation from foreign language, only cons I found you cannot connect it through Bluetooth to your external speaker.

    I absolutely love my Google home mini! It's a great product especially for kids and you cannot order anything from it as long as you don't have Google pay set up. I recommend this anyone to buy!

    Great alternative to Echo

    So I have a house full of Echo devices, but got this free with the purchase of some Tile Mates. I set this up for fun, and so far seemed to be pleased with it. The microphones don't seem to work as well as Alexa (e.g. my voice from family room to where this Home Mini and a Dot live in may not register against the Mini). However, the search results seem to be better - Home Mini directly answers most of my questions whereas Alexa might return "According to Wikipedia...does this answer your question?" Also things like getting weather seems more precise on the Mini - returning date and time it might start raining, whereas Alexa just says "yes, there's a 60% chance of rain."

    Great for having with our smart switches. Although I thought it would be weird to tell google to turn my lights on it has been amazing. Love being able to control the entire house with my voice.

    as soon as you plug it in it tells you the app you need to download once you download the app the app walks you through setup once you have your device setup it's easy going.

    Bought this to add some smart home capabilities to other rooms in the home. The small size is great to be able to place anywhere in the room. Has trouble hearing me sometimes but I think that has more to do with where its placed. Would definitely buy more once we move to a bigger home.

    Picks up from around the room and sound is good. Can use for questions or wake up to a good morning and weather or music or whatever you choose. Put one in kitchen and bedrooms. Can't beat it for the price!

    Bought a couple as presents for family. Worked great, I have one in my kitchen and let's me listen to music while setting timers in the evening as well as briefing me in the morning about my day. Still have to work out some kinks like my dibot won't work with it but otherwise works great.
