    I think this device is amazing, it is little but it can do a lot of things. I have had 4 of these now in our home and are absolutely amazing with the home automation. they integrate well and are very easy to learn and use. I just love them.

    This is a awesome device, very useful. It can answer and do lot of things. If you are in google ecosystem, then it makes a lot of sense. Listen to news, weather, GK, anything you want to know. It cannot answer mau be 10% of questions, but I am sure it will improve a lot in future. Speaker is super powerful. Only problem is itcannit hear you if its playing music with a considerable voice.

    Seamlessly connects to other Google home products, Chromecast and third party equipment. I have it connected to my Vizio 5.1 sound bar system, Honeywell thermostat and set up 2 Google home Mini's with Google home as a group to have music or radio station to play all at once for all home listening no matter where I am at if i so wish. Plus you can still make phone calls from Google mini.

    After doing some extensive research I decided to get the Home mini. I'm an Android user and my smart tv is connected to a Google streaming device, the pairing was easy. Set up is super easy, plug, download app and play. Slick design, I got 2 for my bedroom and den. You can command everything through the Google assistant app as well. I always turn my lights on just before getting home.

    Picked up four of these while they were on sale. I had the full size google home and was blown away and wanted some for the rest of the house. I wanted to use them in part for whole home audio. They work flawlessly. I couldn't believe how loud they got considering their size. Not a ton of base which is to be expected but they pick up my voice and play music perfectly in sync. Love it.

    I bought the google home mini at the spur of the moment since it was $30. I've casually been using it more and more to play pandora, check the weather, check scores/standings, turn on/off chromecast. Things like that. I suppose you can use google home on a phone to do that, but I don't have my phone glued to my hand 24/7 like some. So thus far, it was been a nice item to have around.

    OK. I'll admit - I love to Google. Online that is. But that requires using my computer or smartphone. Google Home allows me to simply ask for the information I seek from the comfort of my sofa: weather, travel times and distances, what time the grocery store opens, etc. etc. The device is a simple plug into outlet, download app to iPhone, and she's ready to roll. Buy one today!

    Got this for my son to use in his room and it is the perfect size with great volume and clarity. He is even able to control his smart lights using Google Assistant voice commands. Great gift for teenagers!

    We love our Google mini and wouldn’t know what to do with it now after having bought our first one over 3 years ago now. It is easy enough that literally a 3 year old can use it. My children, now ages 6, 8, and 14, love to ask it random questions that pop in their head throughout the day, play games, listen to bedtime stories, listen to music, helps with spelling and math problems, gives step by step recipe assistance. The list goes on and on. We also have 4 in our house and use it as a broadcasting system. Like I said, it’s phenomenal. Does it work perfectly all the time? Of course not..but everything tends to malfunction at some point. It’s worth EVERY CENT in my opinion.

    A very affordable device. It's simple to install and use. Speakers are good. Excellent voice recognition. You do have to watch how you phrase a question to get a correct answer when using it for information. However, it is fun to use.

    My house now has 4 of these. We got two of there coral (red) ones on sale during holiday season. These are easy to setup. My 10 and 8 year old kids love interacting with them! Sound is clear and they are easy to use.

    The Google home mini is a great addition to my apartment. I enjoy asking it about my day, which prompts it to read off the weather, any reminders I might have set, and then some news. It's nice for general Googling and controlling smart home IoT devices. However, it's far from perfect. It's more of a novelty than a truly revolutionary smart home tool. Still, for the price, it's worth buying. After all, it gets smarter with each update, and I look forward to what tricks Google will teach the home mini in the future.

    This has been surprisingly a great assistant. I didn’t have much expectations at $29 considering I paid $50 for my Amazon echo last year. However it has exceeded my expectations. It works really well, and you have access to all of Google‘s search database. That means most of the time when Alexa can’t answer your question, Google home can. I am very happy with my purchase over all.
