Super easy to set up, plug it in, download the app, input a few settings, wait for it to update and its ready to roll. In the time I had it (ended up going with another brand only because I had more of its eco system in my house already) it ran like a champ. It was always nice being able to do things hand free.
It had decent sound (for music) and really nice build quality.

This is everything I had hoped for as a small speaker and extension to my Google Home smart speakers.

I had trouble adding a Chromecast item with the mini. There is also no bluetooth so you must have Chromecast connection. Other than that it is awesome even fun.

It was very easy to set up. Have this in my bathroom for music and news in the morning. You just say “Hey Google good morning”, and it greets you, gives you the day’s weather and new. Also love to play music from free Spotify account from this device.

I have a mini in my home office and master bath, they pick up your speech rather well but if there is a lot of noise or you are listening to music loudly it can get into the way. Volume is quality and sound doesn’t get distorted when it’s up loud. Glad I got it.

This was a gift for someone else. They seem to be very happy with it so I'm assuming it's excellent.
