Great device for getting into smart home systems
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not much to say, it's extremely easy to setup, voice commands are simple, and it's got very good sound for its size. I have it connected to a 27in Vizio TV via Chromecast, and it controls everything easily via voice command...turning the TV on/off (have to enable HDMI-CEC in the TV menu to have signals fed through HDMI to control TV functions), Google Play music, Netflix...all super easy and intuitive. I have a separate 'smart' TV in another room, so I can have videos or music casted to it as well just by specifying which TV to send to when using voice commands.

My new digital friend
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Set up was very easy, programming was straightforward, and she knew what I wanted right off the bat. The only training to train me. It’s always something new to find out about the Google Home. I keep discovering new ways that it can help organize my life and make my day easier.

Great Affordable Smart Hub
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Small, yet capable of much. Cannot beat the price. The coral color really pops. Picks up commands from any room on first floor of house, without having to yell.

Google home mini
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love gadgets, my house is covered by Amazon Alexa and I really enjoy it but Alexa is a little dumb.Google and it’s search engines can’t be beat , so why not both! Did I mention Siri? I’m sure to find the answer I’m looking for. All said I highly recommend the Google home mini

Good entry into Google Home
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got it on sale. It was definitely worth the 29.99. So far I only have chromecast tv's that this works with. But playing pandora using voice commands is nice. I tried this in a group with my other speaker and that was cool too. Can't wait to try some other home automation stuff.

Great item
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great item for updates on your day, alarms and timers. I do like the Google Home speaker quality better than this one...since this is the mini the sound is not so loud for music. I like it loud. :-) The speaker on the mini does get the job done and is very decent for it's size.

Great device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Being a small device, the speak is quite great! I have the bigger version of it in the living room and this in the bedroom. Speaker is not as loud as the bigger version but still great since it is placed in a smaller room. It can detect and recognize voice in a great distance.

Google Home is a pretty handy assistant
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I primarily ask mine to play music or about weather forecasts, but it can do so much more. Super easy to set up with an app on your phone. I have the regular Home and now the Mini. I'd like to have one in every room.

So far so good!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't had it too long but so far so good! When comparing to the the Echo Dot, this unit has a better speaker but it doesn't have a line out like the Dot. The Home Mini won a head to head comparison with the Echo Dot. It had better responses to a wide variety of questions!

Great for resourcer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lookout Alexa, Google may have you beat! This small speaker gives out a marvelous sound when playing music. Just incredible that a sound so crip and clear comes from this small device. Google mini provides an abundance of information when asked Hey Google. This is a much have!

Great Tool
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very useful around my apartment for weather information and setting alarms and playing music. It's a breeze to set up with other Google home devices and Philips Hue system. I've had to reset my Google Home once in order for everything to sync up.

Great Addition to our Bedroom
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The size, price, and foot print makes this great for any room especially a bedroom or kitchen. I can now complete all my home control commands from the comfort of my bed! The sound is great for a single room, but I wouldn't suggest it for a large open living room or den area.

I bought a few
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the original Google assistant. To my understanding, the mini has the same functionality as the original only with a lower quality speaker. We use it mostly to control appliances, lights, etc., and my 7yo daughter uses them to help with homework. Would definitely do again.

Great little gadget
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got one of these "donuts" for free and loved so much that I came back to buy several as gifts. It has a great speaker for playing music and it understands the commands without having to repeat myself. I used it mostly for playing music or updating myself with sports news.

Smart Your Home!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thought I would try something new and get into making my home "smart" and so glad I did. The Google Home Mini is a perfect device/assistant. It works seamlessly with Google services as expected. If you are a Google/Android power user as myself, this device is a must have!!!

Impressed...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am so impressed with the ease of set up, clarity of voice recognition and ability. I have an Echo as well and I like my Google mini even more. I'm planning to get some smart plugs to control lights and such in the house and feel the Google mini will handle it much better.

I don't know how I lived without this!
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great item for short money. I use this to play music, listen to the radio, set timers and alarms. I often ask it off the wall questions, like "How long before eggs go bad?" or "Teach me some French." or "What movies did So and So play in?" "What's the weather today?" I also speak to my google in English and Spanish and it will respond in either. (I had to set up for both languages prior.) I also have it connected to my smart plugs and bulbs so I only have it ask to turn something on or off.

Nice!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup was very easy. I like this better than Echo. Seems to be able to provide more answers than Echo. Adds more bass line to music, and the price is right.

Life Changer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Some things are game changers, but this one is a life changer. I love being able to have an always-on device without having to reach for my phone. I use it mainly for music, calendar, shopping list, and home theater control through Logitech Harmony Hub. Highly recommended!
