    Works great, but requires Amazon prime or Spotify premium accounts to work best.

    Found out after having had opened and tried programming this awesome alexa that basically nothing comes with it. It's a listening device in my home that won't do anything unless I pay more into Amazon. The fact that I synced my pandora account is pointless because I have to spell out what I want Alexa to play by saying, "Alexa play 'X' station from my pandora play list." How is the rest of my family suppose to know what to request when I am the only one who knows my pandora play list (and barely at that!) I have many complaints, and basically disappointed in my purchase. I was lead to believe this was the radio of the future. It is if I pay for the Amazon Music Unlimited monthly.

    Mainly use for music and to-do/shopping lists. Inquiries about basic information are answered with accuracy, but more complex questions ("describe the limbic system", etc) are not answered. Sound is average. If you are looking for in depth answers, this device will disappoint you. Great for fairly common stuff.
