    Pretty cool tech gadget to have around the house. Sync Pandora and play your favorite songs. Responds well to commands; can hear and recognizes her name from another room. She knows sports scores, weather, etc. but she can also be stumped. So far so good. ~

    Alexa is helpful with the weather, sports updates, and music dancing during a party. Thank you Alexa. You even gave us some historical facts and dinner recipe ideas.

    Echo is a very interesting product. So far I just use it for listening to music. I ask it to play my old records from when was much younger. So far she knows them all.

    It takes some time to understand all the possibilities with the Echo, but it does really cool stuff. I'd add the sound quality is much better than I had expected as well.

    A gift for my elderly mother who complained about not being able to listen to music whenever she wanted. Now she can ask Alexa for just about anything and get an answer.

    This has been a fun and intuitive way to play music, get the weather report, find out game scores, etc. I'm looking forward to integrating it into my house with lighting and temperature control. The speaker sound quality is excellent for such a small machine.
