Bought the Nest Hub a couple days ago when I saw it was on sale. It has worked great so far, and the set up was a breeze. My favorite part about it is how clean it looks on my kitchen counter! Great for playing music while you cook or watching a YouTube vid. The Nest Hub has so many features that I think anyone could benefit from. The only issue I’ve had is with trying to play the games that come Smith247 · Target
