    I have a great time using this . in the morning I say good morning google and get information about the weather and what's happening in the local news and more, at bedtime I say good night google and it responses with what time to set my alarm ,and plays smooth music to help me fall asleep. Love it.

    Works great and was easy to integrate into the office where I have the prior Non-Nest version of the home mini. Sounds great. Only issue is the shade of chalk was slightly different than the older one, but they’re in separate rooms and not next to each other so not a super big deal.

    We got this for free with our google Hello! And I am obsessed!! Works sooo much better than the Alexa, tells me who’s at my front door (if you have the hello) you can change your Nest, also works with your other google homes to play music simultaneously, etc makes me feel like I have a smart house!

    Inexpensive addition to smart house accessories

    This purchase was an inexpensive way to start delving into the smart house accessories. Not tech savvy, so it did take some work to get it figured out and how to connect other accessories. We use it for basics: playing music, turning smart plugs on, etc. Recently purchased an Ecobee thermostat which connected rather easily. Enjoying the ease of use now that it is connected and will add on.

    Love the Google Nest mini. I purchased this as a second one in my home to add it to my kitchen so I could ask Google for recipe ideas and play music while I'm doing chores in the kitchen!

    Setting these devices up is easy, and creating a whole home sound system and allowing broadcasting to the individual rooms is an awesome feature without needing an intercom system, and best of all it's hands-free. Using them for kitchen timers is an awesome feature when whipping up a meal.

    I got 2 free speakers because I bought google hubs for Christmas. One of these speakers sound better than the Google home speaker but pairing 2 of these together make the sound quality even better. And I like the new features of the nest mini like google reading aloud the Frozen stories. Pretty cool.

    My first foray into the Google ecosystem beyond my Android phones. Great sound, equal to or better than my Alexa devices. I love how my Google account options were transferred over very easily.

    I enjoy all of my Google home products but I like having the small nest mini to sit in smaller rooms or I put this one in my bathroom so I can listen to music it does not take up much space but it provides all the functions that I needed to

    The Nest has been so helpful for my elderly mother. She can turn on/off her light by voice command, look things up on the internet, listen to music, set alarms and reminders so easily. This is amazing for someone with poor vision and dexterity.

    Solid entry by Google. Sound quality is better than the first gen. This matters more if you listen to music on this.

    We bought 3 of the gray minis to blend in better. We use them to turn on heat and cooling, turn on music using Pandora and for a few lights. Very nice and work well. I would like to see the plug in cord dark gray I stead off bright white because it stands out to much.
