    This looks great sounds great. Use it as my speaker for my external monitor which did not come with a speaker. I stream Netflix. Hulu and Prime TV and Amazon music. Sounds great can easily fill my 1080 sq ft apt.

    awesome for when you have to do stuff around you're house and you just have to ask it to play music and tell you what the weather is like for the day. it also light up when there is a new weather notification coming your way.

    First echo. Friends have and love them. It is incredibly easy to set up. Works seamlessly with our pandora account. Can listen to music, set multiple timers while cooking and ask Alexa questions all at the same time. Love it.

    Excellent sound. When paired with another device like it, it has great stereo separation sound. Big sound, small price. I highly recommend. Best Buy had free hassle free and fast shipping. The price was awesome as well.

    The sound quality on this Echo is a step-up from previous generations. But for the same (or lower) price. Alexa is still as helpful as ever and is constantly adding new abilities. If you are in the Amazon camp, this is a no-brainer.

    The 3rd gen Amazon echo speaker is a much improved speaker from the first gen. The sound is much fuller. Thus speaker pairs well with a portable battery base which makes thus a truly portable speaker with full Alexa capabilities.

    I bought this to be a bluetooth/Sirius player in my house. Works great, sounds good for that purpose. I would prefer to not having to have it plugged in all the time, but I knew that going in. On sale for 69.99 so great price! Got this instead of a dot for the larger speaker. I don't use the smart functions, and the app is terrible. I ordered it and used curbside pickup during Covid, and that went perfectly.

    I have purchased Alexa for my home and as gifts for other family members. Alexa is easy to setup and use. You can play your favorite music. Make phone calls, create shopping lists. I recommend Alexa over an Echo Dot.

    Purchased this as many friends told me it is better for music than the Echo Dot and they were so right. Much deeper bass, the clarity is incredible, you have to listen to believe it. No regrets purchasing this at all....

    This is our second echo purchase. We liked the first one so much that we now have one on the first floor and one on the second floor. It is great for playing music, telling the weather and even jokes. I really enjoy Alexa.

    Great assistant, easy to use and setup. I like the control from smart phone feature. Did not think that I would like it since Siri is everything to me. But Alexa is great asset to any home.

    Speaker has amazing sound quality. Great to play music that can be heard throughout the house. Had some difficulty pairing with iphone and other Echo dots...apparently you can only pair iphone with one speaker/dot.

    For the size, this speaker does have great sound. Of course the Echo features are good. If bought on sale, I recommend as a better value over the Echo dot. At full price, the dot may be the better choice for the money.

    My mother loved this gift! She replaced the jukebox you bought for the holidays with Amazon Alexa who played the best holiday music on the video! We also connected her to our Roomba that vacuums our house in the morning
