Fun to use and to learn how to take advantage of its capabilities. Use it from recipes to my daily alarm clock. It controls my Nest thermostat, and lighting. Streams my music from Spotify. Picked up several when they were on sale. Now I wonder how I got along without these little guys. Will probably pick up a couple more to place in other rooms.

Amazon Alexa is Better

I got this device for free from a promotion related to buying a Nest product. I've had an Alexa device for a year and recently got this Google Home product.
To manually adjust the volume on the device you have to tap either the left or right side of the device, you don't get an idea of at what level the current volume is set at so then you have to get it to speak to test the volume. With Amazon Alexa, there is a ring you turn to left or right and a light gets longer or shorter depending on the volume level you set. Alexa wins.
I have some WEMO devices in my home. With Alexa you just need to say "Alexa, find my connected devices". Then it automatically recognizes them. With the Google Home you need to go into the app, and find the setting for it to recognize new devices. Alexa Wins.
if you want to mute these devices so they won't spy on you or listen to what you are saying they have that ability. With the Google Home Mini you have to move a switch on the back and hold the device at the same time or you won't be able to move the switch. With Alexa, you just press a button, that also has a visual indicator letting you know the device has been muted. Google Home mini also has a visual indicator. Alexa Wins.
It's easier to say "Alexa" than to say "Hey, Google" or "Hi, Google". Alexa Wins.
The accompanying App for Alexa is easier to use and navigate thant the one for Google Home. Alexa Wins.
