    Great gadget. Didn't give it 5 stars because it has no option for a battery, must be plugged in for use. Also, I thought it controlled the TV, but apparently not. Speaker is OK for music if you don't like it loud.

    Once I got used to talking to Alexa, I've learned many new things and she is very helpful from recipes to time of day. You can ask her anything, even have a conversation with her. When will we have a guy??

    I purchased this for my wife after she had seen one at a friends house. She loves it! It stays in the kitchen and she listens to music, sets cooking timers, gets weather reports and overall just enjoys it. It works flawlessly and is great entertainment for our grandson too! I would recommend this to anyone!

    Minimum setup required. Glossary of terms is somewhat limited. Design is attractive and fits into any décor. Sound is good (not Bose, but acceptable) Easy to add features (calendar, To Do List, reminders, etc.

    I debated between Echo and the Dot, and went with the Echo, due to the sound quality. I can play music and can hear it all through the house.. the quality is great. Still learning new things.. fun to play with!

    Alexa is a great assistant. I use my Echo in the kitchen since I cook a lot. It’s great that I don’t have to use my hands.
