    Aside from all it's other capabilities I've yet to learn, my FAVORITE thing about the Echo is telling Alexa to add items to my shopping list then once I'm at the store I'm able to pull up my list on my Alexa app. No more sloppy grocery lists, no more accidentally leaving them at home. Best part is if I realize I'm about to run out of something while cooking, I just tell Alexa to add it to my shopping list without even having to pick up a pen or my phone!

    Really cool and useful. Kids love it also. Sound quality is good enough considering size and other capabilities.

    Alexa has been a great addition to our home. She does many things that we have not began to explore. We just got this for Christmas and look forward to advancing our home with Alexa.

    Great gift for my dad. We have fun with asking Alexa to tell a joke but also use it to play a song, ask about weather, ask anything else we want to know.

    Traded in the Echo for Google Home after trying both. Did the training questions but still found it could only answer 6 of 10 questions. There were many specific apps but trying to remember the cues words is more difficult. Google home answers without cue words the first time and can extend a conversation based on the first question. Can ask for driving times to destinations without an app, same for getting a cocktail recipe. Very dry responses where GH has personality. Try them both before deciding what is best for your needs.
