    I purchased this as a gift for a family member. It was not only a conversation piece, but the kids had fun with it asking all questions. It gives me a shopping list of stuff I need and keeps the kids busy when needed. It's a great assistant in the home.

    Truly changed the way that we live in our home. Ease of turning off lights. Getting answers to questions when Mom is too busy and listening to our favorite tunes. Not to mention the calling feature where you can call to another alexa that is at a friends or family members home etc.

    I love my Amazon Echo with Alexa. Very cool item. This one is going to be a house warming gift for a friend from college. I own two, and gave several of the Echo Dot's as Christmas gifts last year. The more you use it, the smarter it becomes. The price right now is EXCELLENT !!!

    I bought Two Echos. One for home and one for work. Very nice to just say "Alexa play my music" or "Alexa what is the local weather forecast?" I highly recommend this wonderful entertainment item! Also, very convenient to take on trips that you are staying with wifi. Easy pac too!

    My daughter loves playing with Alexa, from math problems to telling jokes and inter acting with most of the comments you may have. Alexa is still kind of limited to trivia compared to google home but demonstrates and excellent integration with your smarthome devices. The design also blended in in my kitchen very well and i have replaced my old bluetooth speaker with it. So much potential with this device.

    Bought this as a gift--recipient was happy to receive it. After browsing prices online, I chose to purchase with Best Buy instead of Amazon because it was a better deal. The free two-day shipping was a nice bonus as well. A good experience all around; would definitely recommend.

    I absolutely love the Amazon Echo. It was by far one of my best purchases. It can sync with nearly everything, and on top of it you don't need to get off the couch or out of bed to use it. It recognizes your voice and answers right away, without delay. I would recommend this for anyone!

    Absolutely adore my Echo. I am always skeptical when my husband brings home new fancy technology but Alexa has not disappointed. I love having my music in any room of the house and I am able to control the song and volume without having to touch the Echo. Makes my life soo much better.

    I was iffy on buying this or not but decided to go ahead and purchase this a little over a month ago. I love the echo from the basic commands to just using it to listen to music. The sound quality for music is pretty good it's enough for what I use it for. Would definitely recommend
