Description of 🏠 Google Nest Mini (2nd Gen) Simple Built-in Wall Mount by Mount Genie – Award-Winning Design Enhances Sound and Appearance – USA Designed (1-Pack)

This version comes with the additional extension for the Nest Mini 2nd generation. If you are looking for a mount for the Google Home Mini 1st generation this mount will work great, but you will need to use your own adapter that came with your Google Home Mini 1st gen. The mount holds either version the same. PLEASE NOTE: Power is still needed for the Mini. Requires minor installation, which is easy for most. Wiring is included (custom angled 6 foot USB extension, to be used with the Mini's power adapter). We now carry a custom Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter for those installations as well. This is preferred for new construction and for homes that already have ethernet cables installed to most rooms. See picture if you are unfamiliar with PoE. It's great!. Held in place with precise pressure fit and Patent Pending wall anchors. The Simple mount comes in bright white like most switch plates but can be easily painted if desired.

Works perfectly and New Mini sounds fantastic

Installation was simple and easy. The new Mini sounds very good installed. I wasn't very happy with the sound of the old Mini and this is a serious upgrade.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Crumpled

Works as advertised

Snaps firmly in place and is easy to install. I painted mine black to match the installation location and it worked out fine. If you do this too, don't forget to draw a small outer edge (doh).

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Reliable

Both Gen 2 shipped with wrong extension

Gen 2 mount comes with barrel extension and adapter. Gen 2 requires Micro USB. I don't need an extension in my situation and I'm pretty sure it was a mistake/confusion in their packaging department.

Pros
  • Shipped very quickly
Cons
  • No power

Also works for the 1st generation!

I don't know why this is listed as only working for 2nd gen, it also works for the 1st gen home mini device. The supplied extension cable is only for the 2nd generation. It would be nice to be able to get the old cable style.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Little things

Cool little wall mount

Nothing fancy but easy installation and very neat end result. I usually spray wall mount paint with my "charcoal" units with Krylon Fusion All-In-One "Metallic Black Stainless" spray paint and it ends up looking even cleaner (see pics). Definitely recommended.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Ok overall but...

Difficult assembly

A metal bracket is attached above the ceiling to help screw the bracket in. The problem is that you have to partially screw the bracket to the metal bracket before installing it on the ceiling so you don't have to guess where the metal bracket's screw holes are (because once you insert the plastic bracket into the ceiling, it blocks view on the metal bracket that is above the ceiling) Between the metal bracket and the plastic bracket when they are partially screwed, the gap is small. This makes
