    I received this free with a tv purchase. I didn't really know what I would do with it. It was very easy to set up and is very easy to use. It is great fun to walk in the door and call for music to fit your mood.

    I found this so much better than the Alexa...was able to quickly able to integrate with my home automation system...very easy to use. Distinct advantage over Alexa is its international use.

    I've been wanting to try the google nest mini for a while. I finally got it and it has been so much fun to use. It was easy to set up and I have programmed my irobot and pandora to be controlled by my nest mini.

    For the price its great! The speaker lacks bass for sure, however I dont think it would be fair to expect great sound quality with how inexpensive it is. However, the voice recognition is amazing. And connect smart home devices to it through the Home app is simple and works flawlessly.

    I had an Google Mini 1st generation and the sound on this 2nd generation is the main difference that I notice since I bought it. The installation is basic the same and very simple by using the Google Home App.

    Nice upgrade to the first gen, works great. Able to recognize your voice from across the room and the speaker is loud. Great way to interact with your smart home devices. No complaints about this product.

    Have one of these in most of the rooms of the house. We use them mostly to control other devices—iRobot, lights, etc. as well as the usual applications. Easy to set up, integrate, and use.

    Great addition to my home system. Helps round out my google smart home. Definitely an assistant first, audio quality second. If you want better audio, go with a Sonos with assistant.

    I have to many of these because when they go on sale I end up getting one for a different room in my house or place of work. They are easy to set up and use.

    If you had the first generation, this second generation is worth the investing in as it has a crisper sound, larger base, and great response with google assistant. Chalk color matches the google home as well.
