Customer Ratings & Reviews

It’s google device that just works, and very easy to connect with all smart devices. Connect to your google account and listen music with simple command.

Alexa and I notoriously didn't get along. Multiple devices, would try to answer questions when you weren't talking to it... the overall functionality of the Google Home is simply better

I love my Google Home. I have an Alexa as well and by far the Google Home is better. It is easier to manage on the Google Home App. Devices connect with more easy. I use it everyday.

If you want an assistant at home and have a lot of Google integration in your daily life (Gmail, Hangouts, etc), the Google Home Mini can supplement and make things a bit easier. It's great to be able to verbally tell it to add peanut butter to my shopping list or have it read to me my calendar for the day as I'm preparing breakfast. You can indeed have a semi fluid conversation with it where as the Amazon Echo most of the time requires you to say its wake word. It works great with home automation (smart plugs/switches, smart thermostat, etc). There are a couple of bugs in it though. Sometimes it will just turn on even though nobody remotely said "Hey Google" or "OK Google." If you turn the volume all the way up and are streaming music to it, it has a tendency to reboot. The device does get fairly warm, so it's a bit of a concern to me since the Echo stays cool to touch. But this is the first generation, so we can only hope it'll get better.

My wife loves this so much we take it on vacation. The kids use it for playing music and asking homework question. Microphone picks up voice well, even differences between my kids similar tones.

In my house we have two of these. We control a few smart home gadgets and linked them for speakers so we can hear music on multiple floors. Got them on sale and totally worth it

Latest technology at a great sale price. My techie friend highly recommended and glad he did.

Really nice little guy that does the job well. Only complaint is now I don't have to ever get out of bed to do anything! Also bought the smart light bulbs to go with it.

Since getting my Home Mini about a month ago I've really enjoyed using it, and have found many tasks that it makes slightly more convenient. But there is room for improvement - my main gripe is that it will only connect to other devices via Google's Chromecast, not Bluetooth.

We got these for our kids so they can have a speaker and listen to music in their rooms. It is also love the broadcast feature to communicate instead of yelling across the house.

The Google Home mini is a good complement to my home automation devices. I have Lutron (lights and shades), Ecobee (Thermostat), b-hyve (sprinklers) and Chamberlain (Garage doors). I have 4 Alexas and I bought the mini to compare it. The integration with other devices is easy in both speakers. I think that Google gives you better answers as an assistant, but lacks some features that Alexa has integrating other automation devices. The google mini has better integration with my Samsung phone and Sony TV. It is hard to decide which one is better. And the problem of having both speakers, is that I change their names all the time.... well, that happen with my daughters too.

I found the Google home mini to be good for simple questions

We love the fact that we can ask it how the weather will be that day, play music and change our nest temperature settings. Even our 6 year old daughter enjoys interacting with it.

I recvd this on a deal when I got my thermostat and I'm glad I did. Love this lil thing. We have the Google home downstairs, so this lil one on the night stand is great to have.

It REALLY picks up your voice... even a whisper. You can turn off the ability for the MINI to hear you too if you want. Only downfall was that my HP Laptop doesn't seem to be able to connect to it. (I was told it would be able to.)

Good little product! Lots of hands free application. I look forward to learning more about it

I love it. Every argument I have at the dinner table someone eventually yells "Ok Google!!!!"

It's great for setting alarms, reminders and especially asking for the weather. I didn't buy this for the audio quality or sound. I literally bought just to ask the weather. Great little device.

Received the Google mini as a Christmas gift. The mini was fairly easy to setup and it has been a blast asking Hey Google impromptu questions and connecting to things such as Netflix and YouTube.

The Google Home Mini offers an interactive and fun way to get answers to most common questions. However, the Google Home Mini often does not have answers for numerous questions, which can be irritating, especially when the questions are not out of the ordinary.
