    Beware of set-up requirements

    Set up took much longer than expected, but it works well. Unfortunately, we don't have a smart phone, and the app doesn't work with MacBook Air, so we had to enlist the help of a friend....after we spent quite a bit of time online and on the phone trying to get help. Would prefer it had a clock face, but it has been very useful as a timer, to play a variety of musical genres, to be able to skip a song you just don't want to hear again, etc. We won't know the quality of it until we've had it much longer. The voice quality could certainly be improved to be sharper.

    We got this free with a purchase of a Smart TV and are surprised how much we use it. It can answer almost any question we throw at it - like trivia, the weather, etc. When we would normally google something, we just ask Alexa instead. Plus having a timer, reminders, and notifications on Amazon orders is quite convenient, too.

    The Echo Dot is a family pleaser

    I was skeptical I would find much use with these products, but we now have three and they're a family pleaser. The kids enjoy games like Lemonade Stand, I already have enjoyed plenty of music (you'll need an Amazon Music subscription, though!) and the wife likes the intercom system which can be used rather than yelling all over the house to the kids. Everyone gets something out of these, and they're relatively easy on the checkbook, too! Alexa, thank you!

    I have an echo dot in almost every room around the house. Once connected to the internet there is almost nothing this smart device can not do. If I leave my iPhone or iPad upstairs I can rely on the echo dot to still turn on and off lights, adjust the thermostat, set the security alarm, add dates, appointments and notes to my synced calendar and notes. I can page people in other rooms instead of healing around the house. It literally connects to almost everything my phone does. Such as Spotify, pandora, amazon, xm radio, even my phone through the Alexa app. It’s a welcomed addition to my apple home. For those that may be skeptical, give a try you’ll like the compatibility and versatility it has with apple and androids.
