    It has been great for the whole family. We all love playing our favorite music and the kids love the games like 20 questions.

    this was my first Amazon purchase and since then I have purchased a Tap and a dot. All are easy to setup and work flawlessly.

    Love the shopping app! Just tell Alexa to add an item and it goes to your phone! You never forget to take your shopping list again

    It was a Christmas gift, not a big reaction at the time. He has very poor vision so I thought it would be a good gift. I think he is starting to like it as he uses it more and learns what he can do with it.

    Love the Echo, only wish the sound quality was a little better for music. As the contact point for your smart devices - 5 stars. As a speaker for music, 3 stars. Good, but not as good as the UE Boom.

    I bought this for my mother so she could have access to the Internet. Alexa is like a friend you can turn off...but why would you.

    Bought this as a birthday gift for my 80 year old dad and he loves it. Even though he is tech savvy, no need to be to setup or use.

    I'm thinking it gets smarter the more you use it. Provides good info on daily stuff; best route to work, traffic, etc. Not too good on follow up questions. Wife likes when it greats her when she gets home.

    Echo is wonderful and super smart. Love you can interrupt a skill and she will return to it when finished with what you asked her.

    Alexa is very fun and helpfull. I do wish she could search and understand better. You have to ask questions the correct way. But still fun for kids and helpful around the house for shopping and music.

    Great concept and easy for kids to use but it does take a lot of set up in many different areas to work like you want it to. You can't just plug it in and go.

    Alexa is a fun tool if you have Amazon Prime. You can dictate songs, set timers, talk to her if you have no friends. Pretty fun.

    I really liked the Alexa the only thing I did not like was that it only works with certain music apps. I am kinda of new with this product so I may be wrong but we like the overall use and it's functions.
