    I have one of these in just about every room of my house now (eight in total) I use these to change the temperature in the house, turn on lights, set the security alarm, and even ask it "how many teaspoons in four ounces" while in the kitchen, etc Pretty nifty capability for the price. I even have them juiced into my pandora account and can play whole house music simultaneously while hosting parties.

    I bought this for my daughter for her room as a speaker. She loves it. She uses it so much she got me hooked on it and I had to purchase a few more for the other rooms in the house. Now I love it. It is so easy to use. You do need an account with Amazon, Pandora or Hulu to stream music. You can also connect plug outlets, lights and light bulbs. It's amazing.

    Game Changer

    Initially got the echo for Christmas and didn’t think it was a need, until we hooked it up to a hard to reach lamp. Since then we’ve bought the Echo Dot for our bedroom, as well as several Smart plugs and Smart bulbs for around the house. Having our lamps and even our Christmas tree activated by voice command is such a game changer. Life is so much easier now, especially with our hands full holding baby. We can dim the light with our Smart bulb for night feedings and even change the light to all sorts of colors just for fun. We can play music from Pandora over the Echo, play all sorts of games and even ambient sounds for baby when she sleeps. No need for any other sound machine or gadgets. We don’t know how we ever lived without it. The hubs and I definitely recommend this product. Even bought a couple as gifts.

    This came With a security system we bought which was a pleasant add. these are better than the older dots in quality of sound. I generally pay more, but great for additional coverage to our Shows, for a kid, or in this case for my Mom to adjust to as I gave her smart bulbs and Ring security system. Sure I am going to get a lot of calls from her on all this at once. But is easy to set up

    Great for music but the bass makes Alexa inaudible. It can be improved a little by reducing the bass level in the Alexa app however I still prefer the 2nd generation over this one for Alexa commands.
