    I'm enjoying Alexa. She plays music, tells jokes, recites facts, and probably a million other things I haven't thought of yet. I'm glad she's at my house.

    I'm very happy with it. The sound is far superior than the Echo Dot. Really like the fact you can use it as an intercom if you have multiple Echos @ home.

    Bought this for my girlfriend's son and he absolutely loves it. Just about every person I talk to who owns one falls in love with it. Highly recommended.

    The convience of the Amazon Echo is instantly noticable! This is the first step I've taken towards building a "smarter" home and am loving it. Being able to grab information by just talking to this device is wonderful. Granted I do feel a little silly having her tell me jokes whenever I am home alone...but that aside this is a great device. The Echo can sync up with Hue lights, nest thermastats, etc. and I can't wait to try that out! Make sure to get Geek Squad Protection! Yes it is a few more bucks, but why not protect your investment? I'm sure it'll come in handy when I need it too.

    The echo is a great item with lots of compatibility for the smart products I bought, and is also good at being a decent radio/music player when I'm bored.

    such big sound from a tiny cylinder . I originally purchased to only listen to music but end up loving the technology and use the Alexa features almost everyday!

    We had wanted an echo for quite awhile and when they went half price we couldn't resist, it synced right in with our other smart products without issue!!

    Alexa is fabulous. Just ask her anything and she will answer right away. She can order a pizza, turn on your lights and order an uber. Better than a secretary.

    If you use 'okay google' on your phone as much as I do, you'll love Alexa. No more having to pull your phone out, just ask alexa! She is a great house assistant!

    Overall the Echo is a fun product to own. We typically use it for listening to music, finding out about the weather forecast, or having her tell corny jokes. Eventually we'll start linking it to wifi thermostats, but that hasn't happened yet.

    Bought it for my mom for Mother's Day. She loves it. Used it for music, weather, and just in case she can't get to the phone, Alexa can send a text to us.
