Customer Ratings & Reviews

I think the Echos are terrific personal assistants. This is my second large Echo. I like the larger speakers in the big Echo. But I also like the Dots well enough to buy five of them. Alexa is all over my house!

My kids love Alexa & the continued responses. Alexa responds well to anyone's voice in our family. There is so much potential to what Alexa can do, but unfortunately, not something we can continue to put extra money into purchasing all the possible extras right now. We'll just have to add a little here & there.

Alexa does what she says, I have the Echo and dot, both are great. I like the echo because of the speaker to listen to music. I also appreciate the ability to check my calendar, set alarms, check weather etc.

This unit is a must have in your smart home setup. I got this unit because I was very unhappy with my Google Home that I purchased prior. Alexa has a whole lot more smart home integration than Google Home and is very easy to set up it controls my lights and other devices in my smart home, and I was able to implement it with very little effort. I would definitely recommend this product it is a great sounding speaker as well for your home if you would like to connect your phone and stream things like Pandora. Also it is great to have in the kitchen it does conversions from cups to quarts Etc, you just ask it the question and it gives you the answer it's very easy to use. I would definitely recommend this product.

I own several Amazon Echoes. I use them primarily to listen to the vast Amazon Prime Music library, which gives you access to millions of songs for a reasonable annual fee. The sound quality of the Echo is excellent, though is lacking in deep bass extension. Overall I would recommend the Amazon Echo.

I find the Echo to be an amazing speaker enabled by saying "Alexa" to access all kinds of information and receive answers to many, many questions. It is constantly being upgraded with new capabilities and abilities.

The Amazon Echo is everything it is advertised to bed. The voice recognition is very good - it understands commands from every family member, even when our speech patterns are very different. The variety of skills is impressive. We have been using our Echo for a month, and have only begun to unlock its capability.

Got this for the wife for Christmas. We are prime members. She and the kids 4&7 year olds love Alexa being able to play music or have her tell a joke just by saying aleXa play me this or tell me a joke is a trip

I got the Amazon Echo for my SIL for a Christmas gift and everyone in the family was jealous. They all want one! Purchasing it at Best Buy was easy and the best way to go since this was a popular item this year.

Sound is average. It picks up my voice 75% of the time. I mainly use it for setting timers/alarms, music, and that's pretty much it. Still exploring all of its functions but I don't like how it requires to set everything up on the phone. And I don't remember all the commands prompts for all the apps you can put on it. I think I would like the google home better.

I love my Echo so much that this is my second one! And I bought one for my mom that is not very technologically advanced. The speaker on this device is really surprisingly impressive. It's not perfect by any means, but Amazon is advancing every day! I would get this for any amazon prime user!

I bought the echo after reading about it and we love it. It was very easy to set up with our wireless network and everyone one in the house uses it to learn all types of information along with listening to songs.

If I have to make an addition to my list, Alexa does it for me...it remember my music and it's the best companion.So far I've purchased 2 Echos and 3 Dots

She does what I ask of her for now. I haven't really gotten a chance to open up all her abilities due to the fact I don't have other smart things. She plays my music tell me my weather and what is on my to do list.

Wonderful device, easy to setup and use. The ability to add new tasks makes this device always current.

We use this every day. Alexa plays whatever music you want on command. News, weather, whatever. She also keeps all of our lists and sends them right to phone app. Too cool! Too useful! Too much fun!

While I put Sonos throughout my home, I chose Alexa for in my shop. I spend a lot of time with my hands full or dirty, and it's great to play music or interact with Alexa apps and not stop what I am doing.

I especially like the ability to name an artist and have random songs played. My 3 year old grandson loves talking to Alexa also....asking her to play nursery rhymes that he has recently learned in pre-school.

Product seems to do a lot of useful things. I'd be cautious about the device always listening to what is being said though. Samsung has the same issue with their smart TVs. Anything that takes audible commands is always listening to receive those commands and will pick up anything else you talk about as well.

I recommend this is probably product for those looking to make their home 'connected.' Can control lights, switches, appliances; can make a grocery list by speaking additions to your list. Can play music lists.
