    This is our 2nd nest mini. Works as good as our first. The odd thing is this one is placed in a more used area of the house and every once in a while, we will hear Google respond to something we said to each other or our dog. Things like, "i don't understand the question" or "please repeat the statement". We think its funny, and it don't happen very often. We have both in a plug in wall mount.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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

    I have this in my kitchen where it has worked as expected. Nice to have the key hole on the back - we hung ours on the wall above the AC outlet. Great value on sale for $30.

    I was never a fan of these until I got one for myself. I can use it adjust the volume and turn the tv on and off. I can even start my car with it. The speaker quality is decent too!

    My husband has a room in our basement as his office. He’s not very techie but likes to listen to music while he works. Now, all he has to do is tell Google to play music and voila!

    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!

    Very easy to set up and helpful most of the time. My family has one in almost every room in the house now and we use it to control all of our lights, plugs and TV.

    Love these! Have quite a few of them around the house. So easy to use and small enough to put anywhere, but they pack good sound quality into a small package.
