This is perfect for anyone wanting to get into the 'smart home' world but is a little intimidated by the technology and all the different products on the market. Google makes the initial setup a snap and controlling the the more advanced features almost as easy. This was our second purchase as a gift. We have had this same kit set up for over a year now and it has performed flawlessly.

I got this for my daughters for their bedroom. They tend to leave the light on when they walk out and it's super easy to turn it off through the app, or yell upstairs to it. I like that I can track anything they say to it being they are 6 and 8. They love being able to ask it educational questions while doing homework, and playing music. It works great for an alarm clock as well. I will be buying a second one and more bulbs for the rest of my house.

The smart light bulb has been even more convenient than I expected. Mainly got it to be able to dim lights during movies but I love the convenience of being able to turn off the light after I've left the room to avoid stumbling in the dark. The Google Home Mini speaker is fun to use also. The light bulb was very easy to install and I will be getting more for other rooms. This is a great first purchase to start a smart home!

This Google Assistant Kit is extremely smart and fun to use. Both myself and wife use the unit. It makes many home task a breeze. for example, turning on/off smart lights, getting the day's schedule, top news headlines/stories around the world, the weather, setting appointments, alarms! Wow, your name it.
Google is constantly emailing me new commands to get things done! Love it! You won't be disappointed with it!

This kit is a good starter like it said. Using them together is help making the light control easier. Just tell Google to turn the light on/off or even dim it.

This is a good introduction into the Google Assistant world, I also picked up a Google Home Hub. I would advise getting the Home Hub over this but if you don't want to spend much this is the way to go. However, I would purchase from somewhere other than Best Buy as they will not refund your money if you return it, they will only give store credit, which is why I am no longer a Best Buy customer.

Great Bundle with 2 Great Products!

The Google Home Mini alone is a great deal and does so much. I have it in my living room and I enjoy asking it questions or setting up routines so I get news while preparing for the day. The included light bulb makes the deal even better so I can remotely turn on my light or use it in the routine so my light turns on before I even get into the kitchen.
I would recommend this bundle for a person just starting their smart home setup.

Started upgrading my home with a few smart devices. I chose google over amazon for a few reasons. First Google has a nicer smart home display that helps control everything. Second was price it was a lot cheaper than amazon’s device and Googles device just looks and works a lot easier imo. No need for a separate control/bridge device to control the lights. They all work with the Google home devices or the app.

Purchased the Google Home system and installed it that afternoon. We use this daily for various reasons, goofy questions and even to read a bedtime story (didnt know it did that!) Set up for all devices to play Spotify, google music ect at the same to to have a "surround sound" effect through the house. Looking to purchase a Google mini for each room, and to upgrade the lighting fixtures to work together.

... found this as a nice package deal and gave it to my son for him to try out voice control for his bedside lamp and play around with the google system. like much new technology, he was interested for a while and then not so much. for the low price it's nice to have around (already have google nest for my room) and maybe i can check out the "broadcast" feature to use as a house intercom...

This is a great deal for the combination of these 2 items. I already had a google home and so I needed a mini to extend my ability to interact with google in other locations in my house. Took less than 5 minutes to connect the google mini to my existing google network. The smart light works perfectly and took less than 1 minute to connect to my google network and assistant.

I have had google home for some time. I purchased the mini with a light combination and installed them. It took about 5 minutes total. Worked so sell that i then purchased 16 more lights and new have them in most places in our home. Only limitation is that you can only assign six lights to each unit. we now have 3 minis and a regular google home, making room for a total or 24 lights.
