I can't say enough good things about this speaker, its easily the best BT speaker I've ever heard. Great sound quality at all volume levels and it has Google Assistant integrated, its a no brainer.

The Google Home Max is an excellent smart speaker. I was interested in a comparable Sonos speaker and while comparing the two I just couldn't justify the extra cost of the Sonos with such limited features and a closed ecosystem. However the Sonos sound may have had a slight edge in sound quality. I also prefer the Sonos speaker design. That said, the Max still sounds amazing and doesn't feel like a compromise. I'll probably purchase a second one in the future. The current price point is what Google should have been targeting the entire time. I wasn't looking so much for a smart device as as much as I wanted a connected speaker with great sound. The Max provides that and more... Complaints: I wish you could turn off the Google Assistant without the orange LEDs staying lit as a constant reminder that its off. People who chose to turn off the Assistant probably know they did it.

I"ve had this for a couple months now, and am very satisfied. The sound is great, and even though it's fairly large, it sits relatively inconspicuously. It doesn't hear commands very well if the t.v. is on; ours is next to it. And I wish that there were more things that it could do, i.e., add reminders to the calendar, and look more things up. But overall, I'm very satisfied.

Introducing Smart Sound
With Smart Sound, Google Home Max uses machine learning to automatically adjust the equalizer settings to match the acoustics of your room. This gives you the most balanced sound - wherever you put it.
40+ million songs at your command
Play your favorites from YouTube Music, Spotify, Pandora and more.
Say what you want to hear
With far-field voice control, Max can hear you across the room, even while your music is playing.
Play it your way
Stream over Wi-Fi from compatible apps on your phone or laptop, play songs right over Bluetooth or plug in your record player using a stereo cable.
An even wider stereo image
Wirelessly pair two for room-filling stereo separation.
Fits your space
With a carefully crafted shape and sensor for orientation, you can place Google Home Max vertically or horizontally.
Just as helpful
Max gives you hands-free help from the Google Assistant. Ask it questions, tell it to do things and even control smart home devices.
Your home, smarter with Google
Control compatible plugs, light bulbs, thermostats and more with just your voice. Google Home works with more than 1,500 smart devices from over 225 brands.
Hands-Free Entertainment
Control without the controller
Reach for the popcorn, not the remote. Stream entertainment to your TV or speakers using just your voice when you pair Google Home with Chromecast.
Lighting
Your voice is the switch
Whether you're cozy on the couch or your hands are full with the kids, you can stay right where you are with adjustable lights controlled directly by your voice.
Smart Plugs
Run your home just by asking
Smart plugs plus Google Home allow you to turn your favorite devices on and off without lifting a finger. Get the coffee started, warm up the curling iron or start the fan - all from the comfort of your couch.
Thermostats
Go from cold to comfy
Stay under the covers until it's just right. Say, "Hey Google, make it warmer" to make things nice and toasty before you get out of bed.
Home Security
Command your security
Google Home works with many brands to help give you greater peace of mind. Just ask if the front door is locked, or, if you have Chromecast, see the security camera feed on your TV.
Smart Home Hubs
Keep it all connected
Add the power of the Google Assistant to your smart home setup. Google Home works with leading smart home hubs to control your smart devices using only your voice.
Routines
Take the work out of everyday routines. Your Google Assistant can manage multiple actions at once, so you don't have to. The Google Assistant can do multiple things with a single phrase. For example, "Hey Google, good morning" can turn on the lights, turn up the heat and tell you about the weather and your commute.
Sync up speakers in your house
Max connects with other Google Home devices and your speakers using Chromecast Audio, so you can blast your tunes throughout the house.
