    Loved it so much I bought another one for my Kris Kringle! Like it better than Alexa especially since I have a Android phone. Works well with my iPad too though but better with Android since it’s Google native! I’m addicted!

    When home automation started to get popular I was the first person to say it's a waste of money, why would I talk to turn on lights or the tv when I could just manually turn them on. Well I was wrong, it's awesome, itll sing you songs and tell you bedtime stories and play games with you. It's learning new things every day and if you want to know all of what it can do look it up on youtube. Google will do that stuff, just as long as you buy the right lights and you either have a tv with Chromecast or have a Chromecast, with out that though it's just Google, so you have to pay to play to a degree. So go into this knowing you need to purchase the proper lights and Chromecast, it's an additional expense that adds up quick. If you have all the right products it's wonderful.

    Although it is very good at doing online searches, it still has some limitations on audio. I can't use any bluetooth speakers like I would with Alexa. They have to be Googlecast. Also, can't do texts yet, leading me to be believe the device has less capabilities than Alexa. I would recommend with these caveats.

    I will start by saying that I have several echo's in my home, and I love them. We wanted to see how the google compared. They work about the same, but the google home knows more stuff, since it is liked to google servers. It is mostly used to help my daughter with homework. On sale you cannot go wrong for $30.

    I am a fan of Google products and I always buy new upcoming products which would enhance my day after I woke up everyday. I would recommend everyone to give one try to it. It's cheap and affordable. Helpful in everyday life.

    Excellent product, good speaker for small to medium spaces (bathroom, laundry room) Really should be paired with Google Play Music Unlimited to get the best use of it. Timer, alarm reminder, personal assistant & a lot more.

    Great Google home mini for Christmas gift

    The Google home mini was the perfect gift for Christmas this year for some very close friends of mine. The price was great and it is easy to use for so many things. I actually own one of these myself. After setting it up for this older couple they were really excited! I decided to buy it for them, because she was always pulling out her iPad to ask questions, and this way she could do this anytime she wanted to right that moment. Love the Google mini! Great item and has so many uses.

    It was very simple to setup. I imagine this product will continue to improve over time as the possibilities of what you can do with it continue to grow. I also have an Alexa and they are really close in a lot of areas but I'm betting on Google's overall knowledge of search and data vs. Amazon's commerce focus.

    I've owned the echo dot before the google home and handdown I definitely prefer the home. it's way better at commands and in my opinion. Especially if you already have other google devices like the chromecast video & audio.

    Google Assistant has worked flawlessly. I bought 3 more for my kids in high school and college. Set reminders, alarms, Cal Events, make lists, and more. Add the Google Music family plan and its a great device for each room!

    Never thought I would be using a home device. It's actually made some things pretty convenient, from simple things to pretty advanced. Granted it'll get stumped on something but with software updates I feel it'll get better

    Has a good ear. Sound volume and quality is not bad at all for being so small. Aesthetically it fits anywhere. Easy to setup. Looking forward to more and more features and compatible applications.

    I got this for my 4 year old son, because he loves to ask tons of questions! I love hearing him sing along with it, listens to stories, and asks google a lot of questions and he gets the right answers! Total parenting win!

    The Google Mini home is used in the house just for a specific room whereas the Google Home is in the living room. It allows us to broadcast messages and control our smart lights. It may be small, but it packs a huge punch!

    Got my second one for my kids. Great for music, news and funny questions. If you have chromecast it can manage your streaming services and photos. Also works as a bluetooth speaker. Mic can pickup your voice from distance.

    I recommend this over the amazon dot for anything smart home. I find the amazon dot is a little harder to setup and get exactly how you want. This is far better then i had expected when picking it up because it was cheap!

    My best gadget yet to have this year. It can completely understand every word I am saying. You can program it personally to your liking and also re-train to be use by other member of your family. I love the games too :)
