    So far so good. Works as expected, but it will be more useful when we purchase additional accessories to connect it to more parts of the house. Voice recognition is excellent even from another room.

    I bought the Echo for my son and daughter-in-law and they loved it. After Christmas I decided to get one for me and the wife. I really didn't think I would like it, but it turned out to be my favorite new tech toy. I already had a Honeywell smart thermostat and quite a few WEMO light switches. Now instead of getting out my iPhone to turn on the light, or change the thermostat, I just say "Alexa, turn the bedroom lights on" or "Alexa, turn the thermostat to 74 degrees". Best tech toy of the year!

    I use it for listening to music when I'm trying to study. I use it to catch me up on news and also to turn off my lights. Great personal assistant wish it supported more applications/phone integration.

    Have this set up in the living room. Make sure to mute it when you're watching Youtube videos or stuff will start happening...and you'll run out screaming...which I've found can be very embarrassing.
