    My old roommate had a few of these strategically positioned around the house, so when I moved in to my own place I HAD to invest in some. The sound quality and volume is impressive for the size and price of these Nest Minis. I primarily use these to play music, but I'm planning on linking them up to some smart plugs I recently bought. Even for someone who isn't super tech-inclined, these are super easy to set up. Just be sure to download the Google Home app to make the most out of these bad boys.

    I think I might like these better than the larger speakers. Perfect for listening to music while cleaning dishes in the kitchen.

    A great speaker for the computer. Was first told that I could not use it for computer speaker, once Google Assistant was downloaded on the phone and the phone paired with computer, the speaker works perfect.

    I have two of these speakers and plan on adding more down the road as my smart home grows. I have not had any issues to come to mind with either speaker. It links well with the rest of my smart home as well.

    I use this as a bathroom speaker for music and for that it is great. I am not in the android ecosystem, so it is refreshing.

    I have these all over my house and love the dynamic sound they produce. Coupled with the functionality of all the different features, they're a knock out of the park. And for the price, you can't beat it. I use mine in the kitchen to set timers and such when I'm grilling.

    I bought this for my step dad for Christmas and he thinks it’s the coolest thing! It’s very easy to use and has tons of handy features. I loved it so much I got one myself and I use it everyday for weather updates, adding to my shopping list, timers, and even asking random questions when they come up in conversation.

    I was replacing and older unit just to bee a little more up to date. The price was right and it works as advertised. I use both Google Home and Alexa. They each have their own skills and benefits.

    Second generation Nest mini's are much better sounding than the original Nest. Loving the sound and the functionality of Google homes. Have them all through my house to listen to music. Great devices.

    I love having this and wish I would've got one a long time ago! My daughter and I have fun asking it to tell us jokes, what's my beat box and so much more. I can't wait to figure out just how much this can do!

    Nice little speaker with intuitive, connective features. The first things we bought for our smart home as we expand out into that ecosystem. Not bad! Some connectivity issues during set up, but easily fixable.

    Works good. I don't like that I can't connect all applications to it (i have an amazon music subscription and can't use it on here). It also randomly lights up or comes on without trigger words (always listening?) I got it for free with another item I purchased. Its not something I would buy more of or buy again.

    I didn’t have a lot of expectations when by the mini nest, but wow this thing can do a lot. We have one in each room. My son likes to have it play music and give him the sports scores from the night before every morning.
