    Note: This device was included with another purchase. Still getting used to this Echo Dot and Alexa's abilities. For some reason or another our new LG television won't connect, so having her control any part of the TV is a no go. The TV says it's connected but she doesn't see it. She is responsive though, just be very specific with your commands, questions, etc. Pandora playing through this device is okay as far as sound quality, but when you consider the size of the speaker then it's certainly sounds better than it should. Of course, we have other devices if we want better sound quality/quantity, so Alexa is not a primary source for music. To take full advantage of her abilities you have to have more of a smart home (thermostat, lights and successful connections), which we don't...yet. If you do though, then I could see how this device could be more useful.

    I have 4 of the 2nd generation dots and this was my first purchase of this generation. My oldest daughter moved out into her first apartment and need a dot. If I could have bought her a 2nd gen I would have. This generation doesn't seem to pickup voices as well. Although it's a bit early i think the fabric on this is going to collect dust like a magnet.

    This is the third Echo item we’ve purchased for our household, and we love them! Every since we bought the first one, we knew we’d be buying more. They are great, easy to use, and their features are spectacular. For example, I can send an announcement from my phone through the app to be announced through the Echo to whoever’s at home. It’s so great because I can say things like “Announce that I am at the grocery store in case anyone needs anything” and I’ll get texts from family who heard the announcement. Technology.

    Note: This is a second review since I purchased two of these. Overall the device works well but you are supposed to be able to set routines. Such as saying "Alexa Good Morning" and have it give you the weather, your schedule etc. I established two simple routines turn on lights, turn off lights. Both commands control three lights. One will go on and off regularly. The other two are hit or miss, mostly miss.

    I have 4 dots and one echo. The dots are great, the echo is a bit shady at times but I like that they all hook together and you can use them like an intercom system.

    My husband asked Alexa if it would help him do dishes. Alexa's response was "sorry, I don't have any hands but I have a great chore list to play for you. Would you like me to play it?" My husband said the chore list was great, lol!
