    The Echo Dot's are good for some basic internet use around the house, but for older people who live in multi-level homes, they are good for communicating with each other within the home. If you put one in the top level and one on the bottom level, you can use them like walkie-talkies.

    Handy to have on the headboard for music. Volume control is fine though when falling asleep at night I find that 1 is too soft and 2 is too loud. Nice that it will answer questions about the song it is playing from Pandora, Spotify, and perhaps other streamers. Handy to have the time shown. Does an excellent job of understanding my speech. If wearing a CPAP machine a special effort must be made to speak clearly.
