    Great speaker. It packs a big punch for its small size. Makes a great addition for multi-speaker listening with other Google Home products. Great for a kitchen or office

    For the price it's great. Easy set up too. Don't use the speaker so can't comment on that.

    Simple, unintrusive personal assistant. Easy to set up, easy to use. Purchased as a part of a security system install. Doorbell alerts come through clearly, and audibly.

    These 2nd gen mini's sound great for the size, we hide them all over the house for background music. Even better bargain when they go on sale but still worth the msrp. Best to get two for each room and then pair them into stereo mode. For the larger rooms we run the Max speakers, those sound amazing! Mini's are also great for bathrooms and back porch's, they sound good and are inexpensive enough that if they get damaged from moisture or from being outdoors its not a huge loss. Haven't had one go bad yet though. Be sure to go into your home app settings and pump up the bass and treble to remove the flatness.

    We love our little Google speaker. It’s very convenient to hang on wall. Decent speaker sound. Only thing bad is that I wish it was wireless and it didn’t have to stay plugged in. Would be great in the kids room as part of a Google home sound system.

    A handy little device

    This is my first device of this type. For a long time, I didn't really understand the purpose of them. Until I started using my Android phone to setup voice reminders and then I realized I could use it to also turn on and off the few smart plugs I had. Once I figured that out, I ordered one of these for myself and one for my mom. She's getting older so I'm planning to deck her house out in smart plugs for Christmas. This will be much easier for her to use than having her have to unlock her phone to activate Google Assistant through that.

    I have the Google - Nest Mini (2nd Generation) with Google Assistant. It works well. The set up was fairly simple and it recognizes my voice, now if I can only get the kids to use it...

    Easy to set up. Have multiple set up around the house and connected to Nest doorbell as chimes. Better than the Alexa system.

    Nest Mini 2nd Generation

    The voice control setup feature does get a bit confusing, however - I first used my voice to set it up and then my spouse used theirs to set it up on their phone. What we both didn't know was that it ended up confusing the system and we had to reset the thing to factory settings to restart the setup process. The device is fine on its own, but Google needs to come up with a better setup process. The Google Home app used for it especially is unnecessarily awkward the first time. Once you figure it out, it really does come in handy for remote voice-controlled tasks such as adjusting room lights, controlling TV applications, and also giving the weather. The nest is certainly good for its price despite some initial hiccups.

    We had a homepod mini, ans we loved that but we wanted a smart thermostat and we really liked the nest one, ao we bought this to go with it and let me tell you we love the google assistant she is more intelligent than siri and we can still listen to our music with apple music. Also the google home app is much easier to use than the apple home app
