    We have ours in the bedroom, and it works great for an alarm. Not much difference except for music sound between the big one. even though we have 3 in the house, I control all, so I can decide what Grandkids can hear or not.

    I cannot find ANYONE who knows how to hook this up to my new flat screen TV. For the price, I would have never bought it. It is still sitting in the box, waiting to hopefully find someone who knows what to do.

    It does what you want it to, I do not recommend this for music streaming. Compared to my echo show 8, this sounds like a flimsy speaker in a tin can. Otherwise, it's great. I just wish it has a clock display.
