    Google Home Mini is small and great for the kitchen for finding recipes and making them without using a cookbook. Then some music while I make the rest of the meal! Love it.

    I have the goggle home. I like to listen to music before bed. I went to visit my daughter and I didn't want to take because of size. The mini is the perfect size for travel.

    Gives all the features you need with google home, just not as great of a speaker for music. Still good. Fantastic product. We got a bunch of them to go all around the house.

    I primarily use the Mini as Assistant. I have hooked up mini to control WeMo and Harmony through voice. I also own google home, but mini does all the heavy lifting at a lower cost. Since the technology is still in infancy, there are minor glitches

    I was able to connect the Google home mini with a couple if WiFi outlets. It works ok. There's sometimes a small glitch on the voice recognition but looks like Google is working on improving that. It is also a good Wifi speaker to use with Spotify.

    Already had a Google Home and wanted to extend the features provided by Assistant. The product is amazing, and easy to configure. Only complaint so far is the physical controls for the microphone and volume could be easier to recognize and operate.

    Works great, and the speaker is better than I expected. Not as powerful as the home speaker but that was expected. Not to mention it looks way cooler than the amazon "puck".

    You can ask google any question you want to and thats great. Thats the good news. The not so good news, is it isnt smart enough to do anything more than a very simple search online for information. Its very easy to ask it questions that it cannot answer. I frequently end up going to the computer and doing a manual search for the information I want the old fashioned way which sort of negates the point of having this little gadget. But its fun to play with and it may get better with time as it downloads better software and learns how to do more. Time will tell. Didnt cost a ton of money, but as it currently stands, I dont really feel like I got what I paid for. Your mileage may vary. :)

    google mini is worth it. Specially at this price. It would be awesome if they add more functionality to it though. Like direct linking to youtube or any music app you want.

    Good, but talks too much

    The google home mini is a nice looking smart assistant with the great Google search behind it. But it has some short comings. First of all, you can't change the phrase to get the device's attention, wich are the same for using the assistant on your Android phone, so your Android phone can also answer. The device talks too much when confirming your actions as operated to the Amazon Alexa's simple"OK". There are no physical buttons so it could be a little confusing to manually control the device. Some of the good features are the ability to change the assistant voice, recognizing a person by their voice, and the ability to accommodate multiple users and distinguish among them by voice.

    Simple setup and easy to use. Love the fact that I can link this speaker to my Google Home device and use as another remote speaker. Something I could not do with my Echo.

    These Google Home Minis are great for any location in your house. It makes it so easy to do things like set multiple cooking timers when your hands are all messy, get answers to questions you are debating with someone, control your smart lights and many other integrated devices. If you use GMail then the Agenda integration is nice too. If you really want to play music through the device, I would buy a full Google Home or a Google Home Max as they have much larger speakers. The mini is ok audio quality, just think the speaker is the size of a small portable speaker so don't expect to fill the room with rich sound.

    It's great for controlling any smart home items and for casting Netflix and YouTube to your smart TV. Biggest complaint is the phrases can sometimes be very specific or long resulting in having to try multiple times to get what you want to happen
