    We love our Google Home, it is great for questions and weather and such. My kids ask it some funny stuff and we have the Amazon one in another room. I really think the Amazon has a better sense of humor. Don't get me wrong, Google is great, but if you want more humor go for the Amazon

    It doesn't perform some simple tasks that it should do easily but still a life changing device for me. I wish there was an easy way to turn on sets of hue lights together. Sometimes one overhead light will turn on, but not the bulb right next to it in the fixture.

    This thing is great, it works with my smart home devices and can control my TV with my voice. I love it, it has truly changed my life. Everything has been so much better with voice control. It actually feels like a hassle to use a remote to control my tv lol.

    Had to take first one back. Apparently it had microphone issues as I discovered by being on the phone with Google support for an hour. The second one works great and the whole family uses it. Every day finding different ways to incorporate it into our lives.

    I like the product but i found our i liked the home mini just as well at a much lower price. Oh course the sound on this is better that the mini what i used it for didn't really require fantastic sound.

    Google is awesome! I tell her good morning and she will tell me time, temp and the latest news as I get ready for work in the morning! She has a great sense of humor and talks to Alexa too! She’s synced to our phone, tv, washer and dryer! Love this product!

    This was my first intro to Google Home, as it was free. We're currently an Amazon Echo home and have 6 of them throughout the house. I must say that I am impressed with Google Home and of I wasn't already knee deep in Echos, I would probably switch to Home.

    Google needs more updates to improve this item, I brought for my wife, to help with the English language. 50 precent of the question asked, the google system claims not to be informed and still learning. For music and convinance with apps and Bluetooth. Item is great

    The quality of the product was not up to my standards, the product not always hears or responds to your command or simple questions. The speaker at times will have some static.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Overall I am happy with the google home. We got it free with our appliances. Our kids enjoy playing with it but sometimes it doesn't respond and you have to remember it doesn't ever turn off and it records everything you say so don't say any personal information around it.

    It is a perfect tool for entertainment or for information. You can hook many new products to Google Home but right now I just have my music and TV. Any time I have a question, Google Home is there to assist me. Planning soon to attach my lights. Great product.

    It's a really cool gadget in it's current form that should get even better with future updates. Not a must-buy currently, but rated it 5 stars because it's still useful and will certainly improve soon enough.

    Its like Siri for the house. It know alot of stuff but still need more help with answering questions. I also try to move my music from Itunes to google play so when i request a song from my list it will play. Still it won't play my music. Not the easiest to set up.

    The only thing keeping me from giving this device 5 stars is the inability to give the device his/her own name. "Hey Google" gets tired after about one month of use...

    As geeky as this sounds, I feel like I'm on Start Trek. Except I can't make the wake-up word, "Computer". Besides that, I rely on this thing for music, information, taking shopping list items, timers etc. It what I think a PDA would be. Except it stays home.

    Does all the advertised stuff ... one of my favorites though is "OK Google put eggs on my shopping list ... I have google "Keep" app on my phone and google assistant puts it on your keep shopping list ... she also tells jokes ... and I've had her sing to me ... quite a hoot.

    It's a great device. Seamless integration with Chromecast, with smart home devices. On the downside, Alexa has better integration with shopping and order status. Waiting for update to accept other languages

    It probably better than Alexa at answering questions but it's not Alexa. I'm not sure how to explain that but I'd you have both you'll know. Alexa's app is much better than Googles if that is a thing for you.
