    We own many Nest Mini smart speakers and have one in just about every room of our home, including our garage. We utilize them to integrate with lights, door locks, tv’s, etc. There are only rare times when we have issues with them and typically we just reboot them from the Google Home app and we are good to go. They certainly make some things convenient like when you would like to play music or ask Google a question. The 2nd Generation come with a pre-drilled hole on the underside to hang on the wall if you so choose. These were a good value, especially if you pick them up on sale.

    I do really love my google assistant. I use it every day and have so many smart home items now. It's pretty easy to add new devices to the app so they can be turned on with voice commands. have a couple of critiques that I wish could be improved. It has a hard time recognizing everyone in the families voice. There is no way to turn off a timer by voice command. You can set one and check on the progress, but you can't say "Hey google mute the timer" or anything.

      Hello there, GabrielleA. We appreciate your feedback about the Google Nest Mini. We’re glad that you’re using the most of it and you found it useful in many ways. We’re sorry to hear that you're experiencing some issues with the device recognizing everyone's voices and turning off the timer via voice command.

      For the timer, you should be able to stop or pause it using your voice. You can check this link to know more: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/7028899

    Love these little things. They’re a lot more convenient than I thought they would be. I have a couple of them across my house and they all sync up nicely when playing music

    Changing your old light switches to smart switches were easy and it’s pretty cool can control every smart device with a command. Very helpful and useful.

    We love it! it's small, easy to use, inconspicuous (it's in our bathroom), good clarity. If they could only make these things wireless, THAT would be something....

    Love the whole system. Have several mini's all around the house but bought this to hide inside my entertainment cabinet. Charcoal color blends in and doesn't show on the open shelving.

    Must better sound than the first Gen and now you don't have to keep saying Hey Google, Hey Google, Hey Google between activities. Very convenient but it's spying on me. Lol...

    I was a big supporter of Cortana, She has since became almost worthless. This little nest was much more than I thought it would be. Really easy to set up and use. Wish I knew this earlier.

    This is my second mini Google Assitant I have for my home. I enjoyed my first one as a gift and wanted a second one to put in a separate room. I feel Google is smart enough to help with basic questions, works well with other smart devices like smart lights, and the charcoal color is super nice!

    Came with the google nest doorbell. Works like a charm and replaces the doorbell chime as the house doesn't have one. Announces that someone rang the doorbell clearly and noticeably.

    I have an Alexa upstairs and the nest mini downstairs. The Nest mini has better sound quality and works well in pairing smart devices like the GE Bulbs and smart switches.

    If you have the previous version of the Home Mini, this is basically the same, except it sound a little louder and it now has a hole on the back so you can hang it without any other accessory.
