I am slowly building a connected home using Amazon Echo as my base. I now have 5 connected devices in multiple rooms. I even put one in my office at work. Set up is super easy. Skills get added daily. It is becoming a personal assistant of sorts. I can make phone calls through it without touching my phone, add appointments or meeting to my calendar, get notifications, order food, set alarms, play whatever music I'm in the mood for, listen to the news, sports, and weather and so much more. The home automation is limitless for me too. This thing will even tell me how much gas is in my jeep or if it needs service.

Echo speakers are beautiful, sound wonderful, work with all sorts of other devices and are good with getting information and answering questions. The Google assistants are a bit better at getting information and answering questions (I've tested both with various questions). But the Google speakers don't sound as well, don't look as good and do not play with other devices as well as Echos. The Echos are incredibly easy to set up and have been pretty much trouble free.

I upgraded to the new Echo from an Echo Dot 2 connected to a Big Jambox. The sound is considerably better and the new charcoal grey cloth styling looks terrific. The new 7 microphone array understands commands much better than the Dot.

I love it just wish I could attach it to speakers. It was the best Christmas present I bought for myself. Love it so much I ordered two more so I could have a stereo affect. Plus I bought one of the small units for in the bedroom.

This is so futuristic. It responds to my voice, with no problems. It's very impressive with the technology it possesses.

The Amazon Echo is a smart home assistant, a rich sounding speaker, a fun interactive device for the whole family. My kiddos love theirs and they can control lighting with alexa and can be used for phone calls as well as "drop in" for intercom to other echo devices. Highly recommend this item.

Purchased the Amazon Echo second generation and it works absolutely fantastic. I found that I cannot live without it. The salesman was so knowledgeable and answered all my questions.

Purchased for my Hubby for Fathers Day. He installed it and called my phone and talked to me thru Alexa. I am pleased with this purchase and still learning about stuff to do with it.

So glad we finally purchased our Alexa Echo. It connects to our home automation system locking doors and turning on lights. We use it every am for weather and news and play music. We plan on purchasing at least 2 more and connect together for home wide music.

I do like the blue tooth capability for sound especially movies or concerts with hue lights! Wireless would be an awesome addition

The sound and bass is low you must have wifi for the best use. I wish I could get my money back the thing sitting in my closet.

This is great for anyone ages 5 to 95. Speak and Alexa delivers! Weather, shopping list, mars update, sports, news, games, jokes, over a million songs. Want your lights to turn on? Your t.v. Buy a smart outlet that syncs with Alexa and you’re finished. We got 1st generation last Christmas and had to get 2nd generation for downstairs. Trust me you WILL LOVE this and setup is remarkably simple.
