Customer Ratings & Reviews

Google home is great. Listens to what I say and answers all my questions. Keeps my shopping list and plays music I want to hear. Easy to setup and use.

I am still learning about all of the features and expansion options, but this has been great so far--easy to use, excellent sound, helpful features.

Simple setup and works right out of the box. Has no problem recognizing commands from my family or myself. Integrated with wemo outlet effortlessly.

Got the google home and Alexa and had more fun with google home. Returned Alexa. Have several apps hooked up to it. Writing the review for my BestBuy points.

I purchased this for my parents for the holidays as my mom had told me she had recently gotten rid of her old stereo and missed having music in the living room. The setup was quite easy and the unit recognized the voices of our entire family. We loved that you could request music without having to setup any sort of account as long as you sync the device to your existing gmail/google account. My husband and I have a Sonos speaker and the sound quality is definitely much more powerful/clear on that, but the Sonos does not have the smart technology of asking questions etc... The device was able to answer basic questions, like scores of sports games, things you would find on wikipedia etc. However, when asking location based questions, it was not that great and often didn't recommend things that were close to your location despite specifying and the unit already having your physical location setup. It would also often answer with "I can't help you with that, yet," which could be quite frustrating as we really weren't asking anything too difficult. It'll be interesting to see how much this is used aside from playing music, but for that reason alone, it'll do the trick. Although if you're looking for something that can really fill a room with quality sound output, similar to a stereo, I would recommend the Sonos or equivalent instead. My parents are simple and don't care much about super fancy stuff so this will be fine for their music needs.

I think google home is leading the way now. The system is easy to set up and use. Is not clunky like siri and it deff understands my accent better.

My Google Home is a great partner when I don't want to bother doing simple things. I ask it questions, find it about the time and the weather, and tell it to play music and it's pretty on the ball. I also use it to control my Chromecast, which is great for YouTube binges. There are a few weaknesses. Its ability to answer Google-able questions is hit and miss, and it'd be nice if the phone calls showed something other than "Private number" on the other side's caller ID. I also feel like its usefulness is directly tied to the number of connected smart devices you have.

The Google home makes a great sidekick​ to help you throughout the day, playing music, telling you the weather and so much more. Integrates very well with the Phillips Hue system to add voice control to the home and helps over simplify daily tasks. I purchased multiple for my home and lumped them together so they can all play music at the same time. Very neat when cleaning.

We love our Google Home. We were able to link all of our smart features in the home (security, thermostat, smart TV) and it's so easy to manage.

Easy setup. Easy to use and has Great sound. Giving only 4 stars as I wish that you could set 2 timers at one time. Ex: Clothes timer and Cookie timer.

This product is absolutely amazing!! Simple set up, great sound quality, compact size. Works well out of the box with my Belkin Wemo Light switches and Nest Thermostat. Integrates seamlessly with my Google Account to keep me up to date with my daily schedule, set up lists and play my music. I will be purchasing 2 more for my home so I can have access from everywhere.

perfect for gift or assisting in multiple tasks! so much fun and easy to use.... highly recommend. speaker quality is excellent! love it!!!

Easy to setup and works great out of the box. Set it up with all my smart home accounts. I like the speakers on this better than the echo.

Incredibly easy setup. Didn't think I would use it that much but it surprised me. I use it for alarms, setup shopping list, lights, smart plug, control all media equipment (with Harmony Hub) and list of other things. Everything is out on the web with how to use this, what can be asked and fun Easter eggs. With the recent update, it works ever better and more useful. Only thing that took a while is remembering how to ask questions or to give it commands in the right way. That was a learning curve for me but gets easier with time.

Google home understands our voice commands great. We asked her to play some Christmas songs. We were in the other room so we asked her to turn the music up louder and louder until we could here it from the other room. I was amazed at the clairity of the speaker system. Love it. We actually bought from the plover Best Buy. Not happy with their customer service so went to the rib Mountain location. They were very helpful. I bought more Christmas presents from them. I will definitely do my business at the Rib Mountain location.

The Google Home was very easy to set up and use. We linked it to our home stereo using the ChromeCast and everything is voice controlled.

Very convenient for setting reminders, timers and appointments. Along with Google minis, works great for playing music throughout home.

This works great if you wanna have a nice speaker to play music, that you can just ask any question or control your home automation all in one!

Bought this item to put in the kitchen and is very easy to use and set up.. Just ask a question and get the answer.. Also plays music...

I bought this because it was on sale, and I wanted to compare it to my echo system. I'm already emersed with Amazon because of my smart home setup. This has, however, been a great addition to the office because it works better than my echos for general info, but I leave the smart home stuff to Alexa. Pros: sound quality is on par, if not better than echo. This provides better responses to questions and allows for the questions to easily be expanded upon, which echo lacks. Cons: lights can only be set to one room/zone at a time, which makes customization much less extensive than the echo. I have certain Lights in my home that serve more than one room, which is the case with many open concept homes. Also, echo allows for better grouping of Lights. Both Alexa and HomeKit outshine Google in this area. All-in-all, Alexa is a better smart home hub, while Google is a better information device. Both do very well with playing music, setting timers and reminders, and answering basic questions.
