The Google Home is a great product. I ended up getting a free Chromecast with the product; which is a great companion to the Home. The service works great. The ability to hear from a large distance is pretty impressive. The drawback to the Home is it is still limited. I still can't get it to connect to several of the Chromecast apps that it claims to. Hulu is one in particular. Haven't done it yet, but looking forward to connecting to smart devices (like lights)

I bought this as a birthday gift for my brother and so far I’ve only heard good things about it from him. He asks weather or traffic updates from Google... and my nephew loves it too... he treats it like his research assistant. For homework, he just asks Google to search for info on just about anything. My sis-in-law loves it too, when she’s tired she just asks Google to turn-on lights and *poof* lights on. Happy family haha.

She actually likes it, sound quality is much richer than echo dot, and better music selection because of YouTube.

Google home is far more responsive than Alexa and the speaker excels, especially in comparison to the Amazon dot.

I have both an Amazon Echo, and Google Home. I honestly like both devices. If I could combine them together I'd have the best product! If you are looking at both these options, I would tell you to get a Google Home over Amazon Echo. It does a lot more as far as answering questions (like google.) The only things I do not like about the Google Home is, it does not work with my Wink Smart Home devices. And the speakers are also not as good as my Echo.

As a tech-novice, I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to set-up, connect to my home wi-fi and use.
