    I love the google home minis. I have them connected and can play music all throughout my house. The only drawback is networking required to use them for anything.

    This is a great product and we have a total of 4 of them, plus a Google Home Hub. They sync up fairly well, but the lack of a 5th star is due to frequent disconnection from Wi-Fi. We’ve tried all sorts of things with extenders and it doesn’t seem like the issue is our Wi-Fi, but it could also be the age of the product (I’m reviewing this about 2 years after purchase).
