Customer Ratings & Reviews

We hooked it up to a wemo switch so our 4 year old can turn on her light, we will sit around the table asking Alexa to play obscure songs, but the best is when we check the weather and our 4yo goes"hey that is what mine (dot) said down stairs". We use it for a cooking timer and making shopping lists. It trully is As some! Yes it has glitches but this learning curve is actually fun.

I received this as a Christmas gift. I was excited about this new product and downloaded the Alexa App. I am not an Amazon Prime member and I did not joined the free trial. I asked questions to my Alexa and it usually did not provide any answers, or couldn't understand my questions despite giving simple commands. The device looks good and the LED light on top that turns on when you speak to it is great. Sound is good for music. However, I did not feel that it was a good assistant. I did not like that you have to download skills to make Alexa have more function. You always had to speak Alexa, and then ask the skill you downloaded. It then gets to a point that you don't even remember what skills you downloaded so you always had to look at your phone or mobile device to see what you had. I exchanged it for the Google Home and it has been a better device. It plays music from Google Music and not only music that you have purchased. It answer a lot of questions and gives you great news briefing instead of downloading the particular skills. It also provides more answers to questions and I was surprise by the detail of the answer at time. I highly recommend to Google Home device. I have not tested it with chromecast, Smart TV, or with Smart home appliances such as Nest, etc.

easy to set up great music amazing great addition to the kitchen countertop

It works great. Bought for my wife for Christmas and our whole family loves it

Alexa has come in handy by giving calculations while cooking, weather reports, and even settling arguments about trivia facts. Very nice!

The best companion period! Works great with most smart products! A must have!!

This is a well built great sounding unit that gets better the more you use it.

Awesome product and endless the things it can do, simplifies so many things

It should be in every home. Very easy to use and the speakers are excellent

I bought this item as a gift for my 15 year old niece for her birthday. She loves it and takes it with her almost everywhere she goes. Now that you can talk through it to use as a telephone it's even more fun to use. I was watching the prices go down and one weekend sale in April, Best Buy were practically giving them away, the online prices were so reasonable one weekend!!

Such an awesome product. Helps me organize my life, my own personal assistant.

Simple to setup, use and update. We listen to music 3x as much as we used to as a family since it is so easy to use Amazon prime music or Pandora.

Very easy setup via smartphone App. Easy to use. Like the shopping list feature.
