    The echo was very easy to setup but took a little time to figure out proper phrases to control devices. What amazon downplays though is that this is more of a gateway and does not control devices without network.

    It has so many uses it is scary. I, however just use it mostly to listen to music. I has a very good speaker for its size. I ( or should I say Amazon- Echo) can always find something to please the mood I am in.

    The only thing missing is SONOS integration. When Amazon managed to allow for echo to be conected to an speaker system such as SONOS this product will be deserving of a 10 star. It does what is mean to do flawless.

    I bought both the Amazon Echo & Echo Dot. The Echo provide better music, obviously, because of its taller size. I liked the slick design. Still exploring and awaiting the many more things I can do with it.

    I enjoy Alexa's ability to sit in the kitchen and play music at the sound of my voice. She is also capable of many things after setup. I do wish she could search Google though when she does not know an answer.

    We don't do as much with the Echo as we could - and should - but so far it's been fun, and works well. There are some things it can't do, of course. Alexa cannot provide stock market information, for example.

    Alexa has a lot of app usage. The speaker works fine for playing music, but I would not pay full price for it. I bought on sale, and I am happy enough to keep it, but I still Like my Google Home better.
