    Google home is great and I have been using this on my living room... the only complain is about the error message: "sorry, something went wrong, please try again later..." the only way to fix this is to turn off and on again.

    I have had my Google Home set up for about 3 weeks and find myself using it more and more. I have Hue lights and can control them easily with talking to the Google Home. I can't wait until more features are baked in and available.

    Purchased this item for my grandson for Christmas. As soon as he opened the box it has been fun for all. The unit allows Bluetooth connection to other devices which adds to the versatility and increased overall use of the product.

    The Google Home is a great addition to anyone home. When it comes to communicating with it, I believe that it has the edge over the Echo. As always I got it for a good price and fast delivery from Best Buy.

    I purchased a Google Home for my brother for Christmas. When I set it up for him and we went through all the things that it could do for him we liked it so much that I had to buy one for myself. Fantastic!!!

    I'm satisfied with it but not blown away. In another purchase I bought a 3 unit Google Mesh and have been less than thrilled with it as it has been dropping signals and not smoothly handing off between units.

    Exactly as expected

    The only reason for 4 stars is that full integration of apps hasn't happened. Google is expected to start rolling out more apps and features that are compatible. Would highly recommend for both current value and future potential.

    Immediate family (6 adults and 5 grandchildren) joined for a week at a Florida beach house to celebrate my wife's birthday and Thanksgiving. I gave my wife a Google Home and it answered questions and entertained everyone all week.

    We use this Google Home along with multiple Google Minis all around the house. The feature we have come to love the most is the broadcast feature. I can tell something to the whole house at once.

    If you're into home automation, then Google Home could be for you. I have it and an Alexa and they both work about the same. The speaker isn't great, but if you're in the Google environment, then this is a must-have.

    This thing is great as a novelty alone, but the convenience of voice commands and readily available information is a really appealing package. The knowledge that it will only get better makes it a great purchase.

    I have both the Google Home and the Echo Dot. I definitely prefer the Google Home for generic questions but I've had issues with connecting to media. I'm not sure if this is an issue with Pandora or the Google Home itself.

    I find Google is fun and very informative. Love the greeting in the morning. It really is helpful answering every day questions. The grandkids like it to tell jokes. I suspect the Amazon product would do the same.

    I bought the Google as a gift for my girlfriend and she loves it. I believe I use it more than her though, for listening to music, sport radio, and etc. Ask Google darn near anything and get an answer, truly amazing

    If u use google services then this is a great alternative to the Amazon Echo. It does everything you would want a virtual assistant to do with witty banter. Rated 4 instead of 5 because there are some minor things it cannot do.

    I was given an echo dot as a gift. Tried it out for several weeks but didn't like the limited apps and prime membership. I returned it for a Google home and never looked back. Paired with IFTTT, the possibilities are endless.

    It kept the entire family, 5 members ages 18 to 49, occupied the entire afternoon while other gifts remained unopened. Researcing all of the products capibilities will keep them occupied the rest of the winter months.

    Purchased another unit prior to this one. I had seen the Google one before but went with a cheaper one. It worked but I was more impressed with the Google unit and it's advanced searching ability . Would recommend

    I've enjoyed this product for several weeks now. However I have had to unplug it to reset the device 6x. I have not been able to define what creates the issue. When it is functioning properly it is a great addition to my office.

    I still use mine every day! Music quality is ok, but a very functional smart speaker. Great for playing internet radio and for casting my Youtube Music and podcasts.
