    I wanted a little connectivity in my bedroom where I thoight the wifi would b=not reach. I was pleasanyly surprised when the nest mini did what was expected with a limited access to wifi. My chief concern is safety in the bathroom and the nest mini will call 911 (says it can, anyway...) and I suspect it will since I can initiate calls from. I linked it to my cell so at home emergencies can be attended. Since it also will serve as an extesion phone, a radio and alarm device etc, I am very pleased with the nest mini.

    I have these all over my house and love the dynamic sound they produce. Coupled with the functionality of all the different features, they're a knock out of the park. And for the price, you can't beat it. I use mine in the kitchen to set timers and such when I'm grilling.

    this is my 3rd mini to provide expansion opportunity to my Google Home. I have this unit as part of a speaker group so I can have background music in several rooms as well as seamless expansion to voice control.

    Really nice sound compare to old echo. Picks up voice commands well and responds fast. Integrates easily with all my other smart devices. Only drawback is it always loses connection with Wi-Fi. It is in the same room with the router and JBL smart speaker down stairs and google home nest in kitchen never has Wi-Fi problems.

    Got this for a roommate to upgrade our pad and while he's never been a big fan of electronics he seems to have a lot of fun exploring it's capabilities and utilizing the no hassle advantages such as music and conversing

    My old roommate had a few of these strategically positioned around the house, so when I moved in to my own place I HAD to invest in some. The sound quality and volume is impressive for the size and price of these Nest Minis. I primarily use these to play music, but I'm planning on linking them up to some smart plugs I recently bought. Even for someone who isn't super tech-inclined, these are super easy to set up. Just be sure to download the Google Home app to make the most out of these bad boys.

    Speaker sound is very good considering it’s size. The unit recognizes commands and questions even when spoken softly in a noisy environment at a considerable distance. I also have an Amazon Echo Dot. Google Mini is better.

    The Google mini was super easy to set and get going. I use it pretty often and my kids get a kick out of it. "Hey Google play my playlist on Spotify" and Bam! It's going. I recommend this for every use. It's fun and simple.

    A great speaker for the computer. Was first told that I could not use it for computer speaker, once Google Assistant was downloaded on the phone and the phone paired with computer, the speaker works perfect.

    I have two of these speakers and plan on adding more down the road as my smart home grows. I have not had any issues to come to mind with either speaker. It links well with the rest of my smart home as well.

    I was replacing and older unit just to bee a little more up to date. The price was right and it works as advertised. I use both Google Home and Alexa. They each have their own skills and benefits.

    I bought this for my step dad for Christmas and he thinks it’s the coolest thing! It’s very easy to use and has tons of handy features. I loved it so much I got one myself and I use it everyday for weather updates, adding to my shopping list, timers, and even asking random questions when they come up in conversation.

    Got this for the garage. It comes in handy for information, and it plays music with the rest of the Google speakers in the house.

    I love having this and wish I would've got one a long time ago! My daughter and I have fun asking it to tell us jokes, what's my beat box and so much more. I can't wait to figure out just how much this can do!
