    What do you get for a couple who has everything? A pair of Google Mini's that they didn't know they needed! My mom loves being able to listen to her music in bed, and both of them love the ability to broadcast to each other from opposite sides of their house.

    I like my mini google. Bought it as a radio for my kitchen. It’s very unobtrusive. Doesn’t take up much room at all. Love the fact that I can just ask him to play my favorite music on pandora. Also ask him almost any question I’m interested in and he answers me. Very politely too. Just like having a friend in the kitchen with lots of knowledge. Fun to have him there.

    As an owner of an echo dot I bought the google mini to see how they compare. The biggest difference is that this doesn't have a port for an aux jack so you can't plug in a speaker. Also it has blue tooth, just not the ability to connect to an external speaker like Alexa does. I also find the selection of free music from google play isn't as a wide variety as the free amazon music. Google is definitely louder volume wise, just not sound quality. My vote is Alexa over google

    Good addition to our kitchen. Works well as a speaker for pandora and also for getting quick answers to questions. My 6-year old son enjoys asking it things

    First experience with anything smart-home related. Loving this mini so far. We have added smart bulbs in three of our rooms and makes it so much easier for the younger kids to turn the lights on. If I had to point out one con is that you can't disconnect from the wall at any time. Also, Best Buy shipped quickly and FREE!!! It was here within 2 days of ordering :)

    I've bought two for home, and given this one out as a gift. You can practically use it for anything, news, music, timers, directions etc. It's basically the advantage of asking questions (googling) without your phone. Turns on the lights etc.

    I love my Google home. I use both Alexa and GH, GH gives better answers, hears better, and is easier set up. I prefer GH bc it doesn't randomly listen and start speaking when you aren't asking it to which I dislike strongly about alexa. I definitely recommend GH
