    I have so far no issues, it does for me what I purchased it for. Ease to set up and worked well adding GE Bulbs. I have since added 2 more, one the main room and 3rd in back bedroom.

    WAY better sound than the previous generation. The design easily blends into our home and the mics are pretty good at detecting our voices.

    Got this before getting an Alexa echo. It was honestly frustrating trying to get it synced to my WiFi but after I got it, it worked great!

    Works great. Links to all my smart devices as well as my hubs, such as Insteon, Logitech (harmony), etc. Actually does a better job than Amazon Alexa. My house is a smart house and we use echo dots in each room. We have now two google speakers in the mix as well. Overall, Google works better with Insteon and Logitech hubs. Google's database is better in answering questions over Alexa. Alexa has its strong points such as: works with Amazon Prime Music and has guarding feature, which detects broken glass or smoke detector going off when you are not home.

    You can control your Google home from it or cast your music to it while working out or doing work around the house. It has good sound for a little speaker. Wifi is needed

    Maybe it’s because the big three have their own partners but Google can verbally be told to activate SimpliSafe but the Echo cannot. So I have this in my office so i can lock up the office turn off the lights and activate the alarm by just saying “hey google, Hasta La Vista. “

    The new version of these (The Nest Home Mini, instead of Google Home Mini) is even better: It's louder, it hears you better, and they added extra lights for status information.

    This product is a good buy! Especially if you dont want to spend the $100+ on the full size assistants. I had the original mini and this blows it out of the water. I would give it 5 stars but it has a little trouble hearing me vs the larger assistants

    Ben Griebel, Sales Supervisor, was very knowledgeable, attentive and willing to assist for an hour and half during my last visit as I anxiously searched for the perfect Christmas gift for my spouse. As I finished asking my very long list of questions, I decided to go with Ben's suggestion; a 65" Sony television, a mounting kit and a 2-yr total tech subscription. Ben was so helpful - he was so patient when answering my questions. The gift was a hit and the shopping experience was great thanks to Ben Griebel!
