Recognizes voice commands from a decent distance.

Clear for some, but lacking essential details for others.

Setup process typically takes minimal time and effort.

Can be used for various daily activities.

Amazing product. The accuracy recognizing what I say is extremely good. Been using it mostly for news and music in the morning, and to impress friends when they come. Want to set up some iot lights that I can use voice control on but they're too expensive at the moment. If you have a chrome cast you'll never have to search for videos again because you can just find them with your voice and it integrates flawlessly. The speaker is surprisingly very robust. 

Only negative for me is having to say "hey Google" every time. It's not as smooth as saying a name like Alexa.

Google making hardware is a beautiful thing.

walmart.com

I ordered this because I had seen it advertised and thought it would be fun and could be helpful too!  I have a lot to learn yet but I have used it for music and playing games! You can ask it anything of course! This is the future and it is already here in my house! I think everyone should have a Google Home.!

Google Home is fun

The Google Home is a well built voice activated speaker that sounds pretty good and is useful for many things, specifically the Google Home is quite useful for setting alarms and timers, and I have been getting up in the morning more consistently than I had been before I received my Google Home.
The Google Home is able to play at volume levels that are plenty sufficient for most situations. 
If you choose to buy a Google home, after connecting it to your internet connection, then it is best to download the Google Home app for Android or Apple, then locate and optimize all the settings to get the best experience using the Google Home. In the settings there is a setting called Accessibility, it allows you to turn on the option to play an audible sound, which indicates when you should speak your verbal request. This means that after you say OK GOOGLE, you will then hear an audible beep, so you will know exactly when to speak your request, without this Accessibility sound option turned on, it is necessary to be looking at the Google Home device when saying OK GOOGLE, so that you can see the lights on the top of the Google Home light up, of which the lights indicates that you should then speak your request. It is basically easier to say OK GOOGLE and hear an audible beep indicating when to speak your request, than it is to say OK GOOGLE and have to be looking at the device to see the visual indicator to know when to speak your request.
The Google Home app has the option to add your home address, which is necessary for the Google Assistant to provide your weather requests, as the Google Home needs to know the location of the weather that you are desiring.
The Google Home app allows you to set a desired music playback source, and also allows you to create a list of your desired news sources, allowing you to customize the news that you can hear playing through the Google Home.
Newer versions of the Android operating system have the built in options of allowing the Google Assistant to be always listening, so that you can say OK GOOGLE, and then you can make a verbal request, the same way that the Google Home does, but using the Google Home device is a much better experience. The two microphones on the Google Home pick up your voice noticeably better than the microphone on a smart phone.
The Google Chrome web browser has apps and extensions that can be installed, which add interactivity with your Google Home device. Do a Google search for Chrome Web Store, and it will bring up the website where you can search for and install the available Google Apps and Extensions.
The Google Keep app for Google Chrome, allows you to create a shopping list that can be used with the Google Home Assistant, just create a shopping list in the Google Keep app, then ask the Google Home Assistant: What is my shopping list, then the Assistant will verbally remind you of all the things on your shopping list.
The Google Keep app can be downloaded for Android or Apple and can be installed on your smart phone, allowing you to create shopping lists the same way.
The Google Calendar extension for Google Chrome, allows you to quickly add calendar entries, then you can ask the Google Home Assistant: What is on my calendar, and the Assistant will verbally remind you of your calendar events.
The Google Cast extension for Google Chrome, allows you to see which song Pandora is playing, this extension allows you to pause music playback and also adjust the volume level, all of this from the Google Chrome browser.
Below is a list of verbal requests that the Google Home can be used for:
What time is it
Set an alarm for 7 am, Set a timer for 30 minutes (Multiple timers and alarms can be set)
Stop alarm, Stop timer, Stop all timers, Stop all alarms
What is today's weather (Your local weather will be read if your address has been set)
What is the weather in Ventura, California (Any city and state can be requested)
What is the humidity (Your local humidity will be read if your address has been set)
Is Wal-Mart open, Is Best Buy open, Is Jack in the box open, etc..
What is on my calendar (Calendar events must be added first in Google Calendar)
Add orange juice to my shopping list, Add bananas to my shopping list, etc..
What is my shopping list
Play music, Pause music (Music will play from your chosen default music source)
Play Google Play music (Use this if Pandora is default music source)
Play Pandora music (Use this if Google Play Music is default music source)
Play news, Pause news (News will play from your chosen list of news sources)
Turn up the volume, Turn down the volume
Volume level 4, Volume level 6, Volume level 3, etc.. (Volume levels 1 - 10)
What is the volume
The Google Home voice activated smart speaker, allows adding Philips Hue lighting control, it is necessary to synchronize the Google Home device with the Philips Hue bridge, this synchronizing is done in the settings of the Google Home app on an Android or Apple device, once this is setup, all of the following can be said to control Philips Hue lighting. 
Turn lights on 10 percent, Turn lights on 50 percent, Turn lights light blue (Daylight), Turn lights white (Warm white), Turn lights red (Great for movie lighting, or night lights), Dim lights, Turn lights on 100 percent, Turn lights off.
The Google Home has a really nice power supply, which has a silicone strap that wraps around the cord. A quality power supply always adds to making an electronic device have a luxury feel to it.
My overall opinion of the Google Home Assistant, is that owning and using the Google Home has made life more convenient.

The Google Home Makes Life More Convenient

I've had my Google Home for about 3 weeks and have been very happy with it.  Setup was a breeze and could have been done by anybody.

// Pros / Difference from Echo:
- #1 major difference. Google Home can handle different grammatical structures and syntax for the same question.  Simple example: What is the capital of Norway? = Which city is the capital of Norway? = What is the Norwegian capital?  I find this really good for family and friends because -- unlike with Alexa / Echo -- we don't have to learn how to exactly verbalize every “skill”.  Google Home allows us to speak naturally without us having to learn its own language.
- The above ability combined with Google Home's awareness of context helps it with some complicated questions like: Me: OK Google. What is that song from the Lion King?  > Google Home: The songs are Circle of Life and … > Me: OK Google. Play it please > Google Home: Sure. Playing Circle of Life. = Wow. Note that I didn't even mention the song.
- #2 major difference is multi-room audio!!  I've got two Google Home devices and two Chromecast Audio devices ($35 each) in my home, and I labeled the group as “Entire Home”.  So I can say: OK Google.  Play Arianna Grande in Entire Home.  Echo is unable to do this (yet?).
- The “Good morning” / “My day” feature is really neat on Google Home. It tells me in one pass about the weather, traffic to work, my appointments, and rounds up with news from my favorite sources.
- Works flawlessly with Chromecast devices.  Example: OK Google. Play a funny cat video from YouTube on the Living Room Chromecast > Then Google plays it on Chromecast, which triggers my living room TV to show the video
- There are some customizable bases that are better suited to your home decor.  However, these are a little pricey for fabric and metal.  Nonetheless, Google Home is very soft and unassuming in its design whereas  Echo feels very industrial to me personally.

// Pros / Similarities with Amazon Echo: 
- The far-field mics work well and can pick up voices from across the room without having to yell.
- The speaker quality is very good.
- Works well with Google Play Music, Spotify, YouTube, etc.  But Google Home doesn't work with Amazon Music (yet?).
- Connected Home - Works well with Philips Hue lightbulbs and Nest Thermostat.  I haven't tested out other brands like LifX, Wemo, etc.  I do think Echo has more connected home applications because it's been in the market longer, but I don't use those other services at this time.
- Set reminders, timers, get recipes, get directions, call an Uber
- There are lots of IFTTT (third party app -- try it out!) routines that can be built.
- The Google Home app is very easy to use.

// Minor Cons
- You do have to say “OK Google” to prompt the device.  However, this is no different than saying “Alexa” for Echo.  The Pro I seen in this is related to privacy -- I don't want the device to respond to anything my family is talking about unless we specifically want to interact with it.
- Only the top of the Google Home device has a light indicator to show when it's listening.  So if you've got this on your kitchen counter and you're seated on your couch (at a lower height), you may not see the lights.  Echo overcomes this with the light ring around the device.
- The Google Home device can't be used as a speakerphone or be used to make phone calls. 
- Saying OK Google also triggers my phone.  I'd like the ability to choose the device with which I want to interact.

// Major Cons:
- There can only be one user profile! So I can get a run down of my day, but my girlfriend can't get hers; we can only hear my services but not hers.  To be fair, this isn't that different from Echo, but it is a little annoying.  This seems like the next step for both Google and Amazon.

Overall, I think Google Home is an excellent product, and I look forward to seeing more services being made available.

Google Home is a great product for the family

I was on the fence between this and the Amazon Echo. I fell and bumped my head and purchased this. Glad I  did. This thing is awesome with it's conversational mastermind!!
Love listening to the news, weather and getting traffic updates early in the mornings. Nice addition to my office!

Excellent Assistant

The decision was simple for me, GOOGLE ASSISTANT, Google is Light Years ahead of the competition, don't believe me, ask any of the competition follow-up questions.  If you like repeating the same question with additional content (follow-up) then the GH is not for you.  BUT if you like to have a normal conversation, GH is the way to go.  Google Assistant builds on your question with answers that are more normal to human interaction.

Now if you are an Amazon person, a Prime member, one who orders a lot with Amazon,  it is understandable to use Amazon's voice assistant, easy to order and track orders.  Amazon is in the business to sell you stuff, Google is an information/search company.

You will hear/read that GH (Google Home) is limited to a small list of devices, Not True, don't believe me, go to IFTTT.com for the huge list of supported devices.  ex. WeMo Switch is not directly supported, at this time, through GH app, BUT they work great through IFTTT service, actually better since you have more options/triggers with IFTTT.

I am extremely pleased with GH, bought 2 of them, one for our daughter who is more a Google person than I.  She will love it for Christmas...Can't wait to show her the IFTTT world...

GH: The Best Voice Assistant on the Market

Great price. Can help with so many things. So much easier than looking stuff up on the computer. Need the # to home Depot and their hours real quick? Done. Plays games with you, great selection of music, I can't say enough I did my research online to compare it to echo, and that's how I made my decision. It doesn't know everything yet, but hey, it's a computer and everyday it is updated. It's my new best friend! It actually makes you feel like you have someone there with you. I don't even refer to Google home as it, I refer to it as HER!

Google home

I took a chance buying this device, because I don't own a Smart Phone, but have a Tablet with Android. That was enough, to get it working, and now it's my main source for music. It will play any song by any artist, that's within u tubes library.  Plus while your chilling on the music, you can get it to answer, almost any question you have.  To me, it's the best, of both worlds.  Really love this device, you HAVE TO GET ONE.  Sorry, about screaming, only to make a point.

Best darn thing, since sliced bread.

Is it better than the Amazon Echo? No not at all. Will it be better? Yes. Don't buy this device if you want it all right now. Save your money and by a echo Dot. However when  phone integration comes on line. This is going to be the hardest thing in the world to find. 

Phone integration would allow Google Home to send, and read texts or tweets or update your Facebook. Will allow you to say "Ok Google call my wife*,  Google will know who your wife is, make the call then use itsself like a speaker. 

Amazon Echo will never be able to do that.

Love it

We were at a friends who had the Amazon Alexa.  The kids had fun playing with it so we decided to get the Google because it ft our budget better and we were not going to use it for ordering things.  Alexa seems to understand questions better and have a better wit hen asked crazy things

OK but not great

Unfortunately, Google Home will randomly STOP playing music!  I have re-booted several times, tried different locations, and even purchased Spotify Premium....all to no avail.  For no reason at all, Google just stops playing a song...sometimes coming back on and sometimes not.

There are literally hundreds of customers complaining about this online!!  And customers who own both Alexa and Google are saying that they have NO music-streaming problems with Alexa.  How in the world did this product clear "testing"??

If Google does not repair this humongous glitch within a week, I will return the product to Walmart and purchase Echo.

HUGE glitch with Google Home!!
