    Alexa and the Amazon Echo are amazing. You can ask her to do prettt much everything and she does exactly what you need. Voice recognition is very good.

    I usually use it as a radio and for getting everyday information. Will use it as a smart home device in the near future. Great features.

    This is my 2nd Echo. The sound is really good for such a small device. I now play most of my Amazon music on my Echo. Can't say enough good about it.

    Sound is much better on these units compared to the dot. Not sure if they are better than the original echo for sound but you cannot find them anymore.

    Received my Echo from my son's for Christmas. The grandkids love asking questions and requesting songs. It keeps them quite occupied.

    It's not a Bose, but this is a quality speaker for under $100. I wanted a smart speaker that would also fill the room and sound good, and this didn't disappoint. Set up was easy as I already had an Amazon dot (but even that the first time around was pretty basic).

    First echo I’ve purchased so I’m not sure why ppl are saying first generation is better. However, I enjoy this one a lot. I like how you can select different “skills” to your preference. Very responsive. Nice sound and bass when playing music. Superb clarity. I’m happy

    Use it for trivial questions a lot. And bought the outlet to turn on living room light by asking Alexa. Sometimes we say things that trigger Alexa to speak but never used her name...still not sure whats up with that. Like the ability to play songs easily.

    I didn’t think I would like it as much I do. Alexa is really smart and the speaker doesn’t sound bad. If fact, it sounds pretty good. Nice product.

    I am happy with the responsiveness and information it provides. The multi room speaker function did not work properly and support told me that is a common problem. After deleting the group it works great. I would like to add that support is incredible!!
