    This was a gift. The lucky recipient said "I love it, learning more about it, trying to use all the features. Hoping for updates for new features. It's like being a baby and learning to talk."

    Got two of these to give as Christmas gifts to my son and daughter. I got mine last year and I love it. Have it hooked to my lights in the living room and kitchen. So easy to set up.

    It has a flexible design and voice control. She is entertaining and extremely helpful. I love to ask "Hey google i'm bored", she lets you play games and other fun things. I love Google Home!

    When hooked up with the right music app its a great little player. It is a pretty cool google resource but doesn't seem to be able to make appointments on it own. Its not as good as the google app. Yet.

    Used Alexa for awhile and found it didn't answer questions very well and many of the 'skills' were worthless. Google Home gives me good answers and works well with IFTTT for home automation.

    I have this and a Google Home Mini in different rooms of the house. They deconflict usually when both can "hear" the question so only one answers. Sound quality is great.

    While it doesn't have all of the functionality of Amazon Alexa yet, it excels in so many ways that Amazon Alexa fails. Ask it a question and get the answer instead of "I don't know how to answer that".

    Has great sound quality when using it as a speaker for your music or even the radio, and is so responsive when it hears you properly.

    The Google Home is the kind of assistant we all expect from Google: One that very intelligently understands what you want, and without having to speak to it like a robot or overenunciate everything. If you have hue lighting, you'll really love this. While it may not be as feature parity with Amazon's Alexa yet, if you have the common standards and Android TV/Chromecast products, you'll find it very easy to use this. It also looks really great, has a low fail rate when speaking to it, and has changeable bases (they are magnent). I just ordered a metalic green/blue one. It's also very inconspicuos on a table, desk, etc. You could sit this thing next to a vase or flower plant and it'd still look great.

    The Google Home was the product I was always waiting for after first getting an Amazon Echo. Google's more conversational flow when speaking with the assistant is miles ahead of any competitor and it's much more seamless. For example, after connecting my Google Home to my Hue lights, it automatically got the rooms/lights I assigned in the Hue app and can understand several commands that will turn on and off specific or all the lights. No more "Alexa, turn off the kitchen lights", "I'm sorry, I didn' --" "ALEXA, TURN OFF THE KITCHEN LIGHTS!".
