    my daughter loves this. She got it for Christmas and uses it alot. Lots of free stuff it can do and you can add on apps for more functions as well. Good speaker volume as well for the small size.

    Really enjoy the ease of using this speaker. It gets really loud. Only drawback do not place it next to the tv. It will pickup the commercials that they have for it.

    Home mini is a must for home addition and works well with answering most of the simple questions. Sound is good to listen music. Able to handle turning lights, tv off / on.

    My wife and I got this on black Friday. And we love it. Great for music, alarms, morning routines and as an added bonus it can even help your DnD campaign. It can roll dice, play ambient music and sounds, and helps give quick explanations of spells and actions...

    I have echo dot for almost 2 years now, Google Home app is easier and well designed Sound is great, conversation and comprehension is mush better than Alexa The reason for 4 stars due to the lack of similar feature to Alexa Drop in that allow me to call Alexa

    Smart Little Assistant

    Between Alexa and Google Home Assistant I was hesitating until my cousin recommended to go with Google. Since having it I added three more throughout the house. Highly customizable, I use it everyday from getting the news, the weather, my commute and reminders. I have it working with all the TVs in the house and I added a few smart lights that work wonders with this smart speaker. The sound quality is decent for a speaker its size. From the Home app you can adjust the bass and the treble. We're a family of four and we each have our accounts registered and it never fails to recognize the right person. So far, I'm sold on this technology and liking it and discovering more everyday.

    It was easy to setup and hooking it up smart bulbs and plugs was a breeze. It's so much easier to turn on the lights using my voice instead of physically turning on/off the switch.

    Google does it again with a dependable mini Google Home unit! The size is hidden in my den and we use our original Google Home in the downstairs family room. Very sensitive microphone that picks up your voice even with TV noise. I love it!!

    Google Home Mini's are great to start or add to your smart home collection. They sound far better than a Bluetooth speaker that costs the same and you get so much more functionality

    I have both the google home mini and the amazon dot. I by far love the google home better because you can customize voice commands using IFTTT. Amazon dot is unable to sent text messages. Google home mini is also convenient to let you know what traffic is like before heading to work and what weather is going to be like just with a simple phrase. It's also good at setting timers and reminders and shopping list.

    Pros Great overall product Very easy to setup The Sound is pretty good for a small speaker Cons We need more integration features with Xbox One and other devices. We need more features overall like broadcast to an individual device vs all devices.
