    We love it. it is not uncommon to start up and let it go for several hours. It can play a very wide genre of music. ( That is what we primarily bought it for>)

    We had another smart home hub that wasn't the echo and it broke down twice. So far the Amazon echo can do more and doesn't glitch out. It's so worth the extra $$

    The system was a breeze to set up and was amazed how easy it was to use. Everything from questions to jokes to music. Next step is to connect it to the house and TV.

    Took a while to figure everything out but once connected it turned out to be pretty helpful with shopping lists, weather updates, traffic reports. Also used as a speaker, sound isn't as great as some the better ones out there but does the job

    A single list is easy. We haven't been able to have multiple lists simultaneously. Simple questions can be answered but more complex ones get rejected or mis-answered. The ability to interpret and hear voices is very good with a long range.

    I was a little skeptical at first about getting one of these. But now that I have had it for a while I love it. I like being able to play music from a radio station and asking it questions. I would say this is the new radio for a home.

    Alexa is fun. You can play music and ask it questions. It doesn't play all the music you want and will not answer all your questions. I have yet to connect it to any home devices but that's the next step. I see a lot of potential for this product.
