    I baught the amazon echo after researching the different smart speakers out in the market. It is able to control my Sony 4k TV with just voice commands and it's great to be able to listen to pandora just by asking Alexa.

    I decided to get an Echo when I kept reading about everything Alexa could do. Not disappointed. She now controls our TV, Security, Front door and Shopping Lists with ease. And, she understands me, unlike Siri. Love her.

    Absolutely love my Echo, from helping with our shopping list, listening to music, checking the daily weather and news, to just telling the occasional joke. You will find yourself talking to Alexa every day! It's a life changer!

    It is nice but sometimes does not understand the question or command and can be frustrating, but overall we like it.

    We use our Amazon Echo daily for music, shopping and to do lists, timers, and the weather. Because the Echo is hands free it's like have a personal assistant. We loved "Alexa" so much we purchased a dot for the Master bedroom.

    Alexa Was my Mother's Day present and she now resides on our island in the kitchen. She is used for a timer for all the kids and they have even set multiple timers. Alexa is also set up to our living room lights and also our Nest Thermostat. Alexa can also tell you an unlimited amount of jokes, the kids start the day off with a joke.

    This is our second Echo, and a 4th Dot. Really love Echo and now have a Dot at the office. Easy to set up. I use it for news briefings, calendar, and music. Will be trying some new features...like messaging and Fitbit.

    This was a gift but I also own an Echo of my own that I have had for over a year. I use it daily and would not be with out it. They are always adding more thing that it can do and it has almost become a member of the family.

    Amazon Echo does a lot of things. Keeps todo and shopping lists for you. Plays music just by asking. Keeps your schedule (using Google Calendar), has some great games, including trivia games. I would buy it again in a second.
