    This device requires a little more effort to learn than one would expect. Music is better through paid music service. have to be patient to look through available apps in echo app.

    Alexa is fun, a bit biased to amazon product. Example: when I scream at her to play a song she will play it from amazon music and not my Spotify unless I instruct her to. Which isn't terrible, but just a heads up. She is way quicker than your phone for finding answers to things, but the algorithm to get exactly what you're looking for is still being worked on. So don't expect her to always find the right answer. She's still a great product and fun.

    I decided to buy an Amazon echo for my wife on Mother's Day. She was really impressed how well it functioned, and how knowledgeable Alexa is. Everyone should have one of these!

    Amazing technology

    I work in natural speech and language processing, so I'm quite familiar with the technology behind the echo. I purchased my echo to test an Alexa skill that I'd written. While the process of connecting it to wifi is clunky, the echo is otherwise quite easy to use. I'm often impressed at how well the farfield ASR does as recognizing my speech, even when I'm yelling from another room. My wife and I soon found ourselves wanting another one to put downstairs.
