    First time I purchased Alexa and had to return. Alexa wouldn’t respond many times, nor did it light up. From what I understand from Other reviews, similar issue.

    I thought I was getting an upgrade from my 7-year-old Amazon Echo but I'm sorely disappointed. The sound is no better but what is worse is that I have to repeat the wake up word several times before it responds. Unfortunately it's too late to return it.

      Posted .

      Hello JuneS! Thank you so much for taking the time to submit your feedback with your new Echo device. You can try to troubleshoot this as this is not the expected experience one should have with this device. I would recommend checking to see if you have any software updates that are needed as older software versions could potentially cause this. You can do this by simply sayin "Alexa, check for updates." If there are any updates, it will download and install them and could take 15 minutes to do depending on your internet speeds. If this does not resolve the issue, you can contact Amazon Customer Support at 888.280.4331 for further assistance or to explore all of your options. I do hope these tips resolve your issue and improve your experience with your Echo. Thanks again for your time and feedback and I hope you have a tremendous day! AmazonDevices
