    I absolutely love my Alexa Echo! I use it every day for so many different things: alarm, games, information, music, listening to my favorite talk shows...and I link it to my soundbar with the Bluetooth. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Echo and Echo Dot. I don't have the newer ones yet, but it doesn't really matter because Alexa is constantly getting smarter!!!

    So I was excited to get this when Best Buy started caring them. The thrill for was short lived. First week was fun to use it for music, weather, cooking, and jokes. But after that I lost interest. Attaching to my Hue lights and Nest were a longer process to make it work. I'd rather pull my phone out. Plus with a 2 story house it is useless if not on the same floor. Maybe I'll buy it again or a 2nd version when its released

    Alexa is OK for basic weather and turning on/off a light you have linked on your network. She still has some issues understanding basic commands and i would love to see skills from major airlines that allow you to check flights before you drive to the airport. The music sound quality is good and you have to be an Amazon Prime member to really see value there. Hopefully, in a year it will turn out to be a good investment.
