I prefer Google over Alexa for controlling appliances. This 2nd Gen google mini works - but doesn’t work well. They’re still working out the kinks. Sometimes when I ask Google to dim the lights it replies “when is the event” lol. Still, better for appliances than Alexa; IMO.

Loses connection to devices randomly and often. Sound quality pales in comparison to
the HomePod. It’s cheap, so expect to get what you pay for. Google isn’t in business to provide very high quality at a sub-market price. Great product for a young kid with low expectations.

Mom's Echo Dot Wasn't Working So I Bought This As A Stop Gap. She Loves The Sound And Yhe YouTube Music I Got Included With The Device.
However Ive Yet To Setup Her Voice Lighting. Its Not As Plug And Play Friendly As The Echo Dot.
Sounds Great But Doesn't Seem To Work With The Devices That Are Certified To Work With It. Which Is Surprising Considering They Are Fron 3 Different Manufacturers.
So Not That Great At Using Vouce Activated Lighting
