    My kid struggles to get up in the morning, since setting the alarm on the google mini he hasn't had a problem. We used to have an echo doing the same but it never woke him up. All the other features are great too.

    Great price. Use to expand Broadcast around the house. No more yelling out loud for the kids. Can even broadcast when away at work while wife and kids at home by using the Google Home app.

    I never even wanted one and wouldn't have bought it, but I got it free and I am sold on it. I bought another one for the living room. It is so relaxing to go to sleep with and there is no problem learning to operate.

    Great product from google. When compare to the google mini 1st generation I can’t really tell if there a difference. Both response the same and not too significant on the speaker quality. I like that it can be hung from a wall other than that just buy the 1st generation. Most company are giving them for free this Holiday.

    The Google mini, definitely helps me plan my day and keeps track of dates and alarms needed for me to be successful. The color coordinates with my bookcase, so it blends well with decor.

    Got this for the garage. It comes in handy for information, and it plays music with the rest of the Google speakers in the house.

    Not bad, it is decent for the price, and the sound on this little device really surprised me. i was thinking it was going to be really low, so low expectations, and was impressed.

    I have been using Google nest minis for about 2 years now. With updates the just keep getting better. Now can be used as a Bluetooth speaker and paired with another mini for stereo sound.

    I love this little fellow. It is small and fits perfectly on counter without being noticeable. Works like a charm. This mini nest does exactly what you would expect from Google.

    I am enjoying my Nest Mini (2nd generation). It was easy to setup and provides good sound. I use it everyday as an assistant. Recently I have been using the Nest Mini to stream radio content.

    Great but not necessarily the best for your needs

    Good product but not perfect. Choosing an environment is not an obvious decision as both Alexa's and Google's devices have it's pros and cons. Alexa may be better for smart home automation thanks to the routines and flexibility, but Google is much better for entertainment. While Google can cast to a Chromecast from Netflix, Youtube and others, Alexa can't. Google can also play music from Youtube music (in case you have Youtube Premium or Youtube Music) which Alexa doesn't do. The internet search is also much better in Google devices. The main cons in Google devices are that for home automation you usually need 3rd party apps, such as IFTT, which require a subscription to work.

    I don't have any grudges I replace my amazon echo dot with this after leaving her unplugged for a year because she was always doing random stuff and its nice to not have to worry about that.

    Even though I live in a small apartment, I have one in every room. It's great for weather, music, podcasts, radio, lists, and really anything you can think of. The speaker is pretty good for such a small device.
