    Useful for adults, educational and entertaining for children. Fun to explore all the things the Echo can do, from "play easy jazz," to answering "why isn't Pluto a planet?" or "take a note." Something for everyone in the house.

    I never thought I'd use the echo nearly as much as I do. It controls our lifx lights, tv with a harmony, light switches by wemu, and connects to our vivint security system. I love it. It's really cool. I bought one for my brother.

    Better than trying to listen to our favorite music on the radio! Speakers are great and will connect wireless speakers soon. Should have purchased this earlier. Will purchase another Echo Dot for another room. GREAT Concept!!

    I purchased this for my 85 year old father, who is hard to gift for. So far he seems to enjoy it. I will be adding some additional smart devices to make it more useful (lighting, thermostat, etc.). I've run into a few hiccups - for instance asking driving directions doesn't work. Nothing major though - all in all, it's a good purchase!

    This pairs really well with my Logitech Harmony Elite remote. It's great being able to play music without ever having to touch a device. The feature we use the most is setting timers and playing white noise for night time.

    This does just what it claims and also has a great speaker so you do not need to link with a sound system to be able to enjoy! We compared this to google and with the speaker there was no comparison this one is so much better.

    I absolutely love my Amazon Echo. I have 3 in my house and it is so easy to play music, find information or listen to Audible books. I love when I am cooking and I don't have to use my hands to start listening to music.

    It's like having a radio (change the music you like) by telling it. Also,throw away your alarm clock,it does that too. Alexa,it's name, what's the weather forecast.. it does so many things. Like jeopardy, play it on the amazon.
