    The google mini is small but packs a lot of entertainment in such a small device. Setup was easy and it is a strong computer for Amazon Alexa. The sound is full and rich is an excellent source for playing music.

    So Far, Amazing!

    We were both surprised by how well this Google Home Mini works. Granted, we haven't used it much, yet, but so far we are very impressed. If you use Android phones that have Google Assistant on them, both devices may respond, which is both amusing and mildly annoying. Perhaps it's possible to tell the Mini to take precedence over your phone, but if it is I haven't figured it out yet. My husband set it up, so I can't say how difficult it was, but it didn't seem to take very long. You have to teach it your voice at first, which he did, but I was surprised when it listened to me, too. (I love how it responds to unexpected commands, such as, "Hey Google, thank you". [I always feel like 'she' deserves thanks!]) Things, like setting a timer and changing the thermostat (with Nest), are extremely helpful. Granted, our phones can do this, too, but it's a lot easier to just tell Assistant to take care of it, especially while cooking. We bought two for our home and one as a gift. We hope the recipient will be impressed by it, as well. Also, in our opinion, "Hey Google" rolls off the tongue better than "OK Google", so it's great that they implemented that.

    Great Supplement to Google Home

    If you are a Smart Home and you're looking to expand your connectivity, the Google Mini Home is a great place to start. We used one of these to add connectivity to the bedroom (our main Google Home device is in the living room.) We have smart lamps and wanted to add that same functionality to the bedroom and other rooms in our house. For being as small as it is, it actually puts out a good amount of sound, although we use it to connect to our Sonos speakers that are already connected to our wifi. I got one of these for my sister-in-law for Christmas and she uses it in in the kitchen for quick conversions and recipes. For the price, you really can't beat grabbing one to test it out if you've never had a home assistant.

    I bought this for my 6 year old daughter who has autism. It has done such wonders for her and her learning as well as with her speech as she is able to speak with Google and ask it questions when she's alone in her room. This thing has been a blessing as I love when she runs to me and tells me the answer that Google has given her.

    I had purchased a Google home for my wife. Shortly after getting it connected, our boys kept wanting to change the music or ask it silly questions. We found these minis and ended up getting one for each of their bedrooms. Now they can each do their own thing and put whatever music they want without having to talk over each other.

    I got this free with my Pixel 2 XL and gave it to my girlfriend. She loves it and thinks it's one of the best things since sliced bread. She uses it everyday for simple things like the weather but also for entertainment like playing the fun trivia games that it comes with. Definitely worth the money if you wanted to purchase one.

    I have the Google Home and now own several minis throughout my home. Also bought done to give as gifts. Makes a great gift for my elderly mom so she can listen to music, ask questions, and even make calls which gives me piece of mind in case something harkens and she cannot get to her phone. Now she can have Google mini call me.

    I bought this to use with my Phillips hue lights in my bedroom. I love this. I have a light behind my tv and it’s nice to be able to just say “hey google turn off the light”. This way I can just go to bed instead of having to get up and turn it off. There are many other great features but this is how I use it. Work’s flawlessly.

    I was already a huge fan of Google Assistant before I got the Google Home, but having a dedicated device in my home for it is so much nicer and more convenient than just using my phone. The speaker in the Mini isn't anything amazing, but it has surprisingly good quality for its size. I use it pretty often to stream my music now.

    Got this Google Mini as part of a promotion with Nest products. It is nice looking (better looking than the Echo Dots) I have, but have so many Echo's that Alexa runs the house. Think that this will fit well into Google Home's growing product line. Guess it can't hurt to get a second opinion when I don't like what Alexa says :)

    The google assistant is hands down one of the best if you have a google integration in your home. It does have a good amount that it can do, but it also has a lot it can't do yet so I'm hopeful for more to come with updates. The speakers are really nice and surprisingly loud, sometimes too loud, but the volume can be adjusted.

    To be honest, I bought this with a little skepticism on how useful this little is. It was on sale so I thought it doesn’t hurt to try. Now it’s my go to alert, morning news and random fact check machine. It think it’s still premature to buy into the whole smart home concept, but for this price it can’t be beat for what it does

    I'm pleased beyond expectation with my google home mini. The color blends in well with my furniture and it controls my home by my voice commands. It has made a few things at home much easier. I no longer walk to a light switch or pull out my phone to turn up the thermostat. Just say "Hey Google". I highly recommend this item.
