    A new member of the family

    Was a Christmas gift for me. At first, was hesitant to open package. Was thinking of returning it because I already have Siri on my iPhone. Saw demo on YouTube and decided to give it a try. Tried asking her a lot of questions, most of which she was able to answer. She tells funny jokes, she asks you questions in a quiz like manner, she plays music of your choice, tells you the weather. Very sensitive microphone as I ask her questions from another room. She is now a member of the family.

    The Google Home is great! I can give myself reminders and alarms, play music, create shopping lists, run through a recipe step by step as I need it, get the weather and summarize my day, ask questions, get phone numbers, learn languages, and entertain myself and my daughter. She loves to ask it for animal sounds, jokes and to start trivia games. It's a lot of fun and convenience. I love how in it's own way it also keeps us away from TV more.

    Playing with the Home on Christmas was a lot of fun. It hears my voice extremely well when the TV is not on and does better than I thought when my TV is playing (quite loudly). The things it can do it does very well, but the product is incomplete. It can't, yet, even do reminders (kinda lame) but I'm confident, over time, Google will add all the functionality I want - and more. The quality of the sound impressed me, especially the bass (but I'm not an audiophile)--it surpassed my expectations.

    This Google assistant speaker is loud and it hears my voice great even with the television volume is very loud to hear my commands. I have one behind the television right next to Samsung bluetooth sound bar with wireless subwoofer speakers. Google assistant is the best smart assistant to buy period. All the built in features are unbelievable and once you get one you can't live without it. Buy it and you'll find it to be amazing.

    Got this to add to my collection. The Google Home works great, looks good, and is perfect for whole house music using YT Music or many others. Assistant is excellent at answering questions, setting reminders and timers, and controlling smart home products. The app is not the most intuitive so it does take some learning to figure out how to set things up, but once you get that, you're golden.

    Getting better all the time

    I mostly use it for listening to music, just by telling it to play whatever I want to listen to since we have a Google Play Music subscription. At first it seemed a bit silly because I could just do the same thing with my phone and cast it to the Chromecast (or even Google Home), but now that we have a new baby, it's really handy to be able to talk to it, especially when I don't have any hands available! And it continues to be able to do more things all the time.

    The Google Home is a fun device to have around and very helpful in many instances. Like when I asked my grandson how much 7 x6 was, he unhesitatingly asked Google Home r the correct responses. We are still getting used to the devices capabilities: there are definitely correct and incorrect questions to pose and we have not yet learned to do much more than get weather and some general information and ask for different kinds of music; we have not yet learned to program or reset our thermostat.

    I wasn't big on the idea of having these around the house initially. We got our first one one free after and using it for a while, I'm happy we decided to get one for each room. I realized how many nifty things they are capable of, it's nice to have them around. They're small and you easily forget they are there until you need them. They also aren't triggered easily, which I like because they do have the capabilities to listen and store things they hear.

    If Alexa didn't have such a headstart, Google would be leading the pack. It's AI is super advanced for answering your questions and natural speech. Excited to see how far Google takes these.

    This device has tons of potential. Great full sound. Being able to tell it to cast stuff is pretty cool. I also like being able to ask it follow-up questions whereas with the Alexa interface you are definitely more limited. I think that a person probably needs both to be honest if you want to make sure you can control all of your devices and have access to all of your digital content. Currently it lags behind Amazon Alexa as far as features go but more are being developed daily I am told.

    We own both the Amazon Echo and Google Home. We do the exact same things with both and see what happens. The Google Home always achieves our goals best! EXCEPTION: Volume of music not as loud as Echo...

    I love the Google Home speaker. We have 3, 1 on each floor of our home. for the most part they were easy to sync and use but I think Google made some changes and I've been having so problems with the speakers I'm sure it's me and that I just need to take the time to learn how to sync them again and they don't seem to play Iheartradio any more. whats up with that? again probably just me not aware of a software change

    When I got Google Home it was amazing. I could ask Google for specific songs and it will play it. Google have excellent voice and speech recognition. Whatever you ask Google it will find an answer for it. When I just bought it I had a 3 months free trial of google music. After that you can't ask for a specific song because you will have to pay the google subscription in order to have this function. I would love google to include that free if you have google home. ;)
