    Fascinating device. Voice recognition is best yet. No irritating wise guy responses like Siri. Integrates spectacularly with Spotify Premium. Can't wait to get my back ordered Echo Dot for my sound system.

    I have had so much fun with my echo and there are so many more things I want to explore with it. Love the weather reports, setting timers, playing music. My Wife has enjoyed it even my Mom wants one.

    This piece of electronics is amazing. Alexa can answer questions for you, give you weather and news updates, and play your favorite music. Have had the unit several weeks and am very pleased with it.

    This is larger than the dot but it provides a nice built-in speaker. I use it in my bedroom, where there are no external receiver/speakers and leave the dot downstairs connected to a larger speaker.

    What can I say, the family's been going crazy with Alexa. Having her calculate math problems, asking about the weather, setting timers, playing our favorite songs on command - it's been great!

    Echo is a nice addition to my ahem becoming automated home (not close). What I like with it are easy to use and setup, there still a lot of improvement to do but overall it's nice to have it as long the maker of it will continue to update Alexa to keep up with.this fast paced technology of us.

    If you have decided to buy a digital assistant this is the one to choose. Google home is good but not nearly as refined as Alexa. I have used both extensively and the Echo is the hands down winner.
