    This device is a decent upgrade from the original dot. If your in the market the extra 5-10$ makes a difference.

    Alexa does not always recognize our voice. We eventually had to return it after a couple days due to the issue. A friend had one that worked perfectly.

    Really appreciate the way it is responsive to my commands for weather forecast or set a timer or spell a word. Good size, Not too tall or too wide. Best Buy had an easy way to order online and then pick it up add a store near me. I recommend the echo and Best Buy.

    The Alexa ecosystem is always getting better but be wary of your privacy based on the terms of service and the history of this company.

    To control the volume it seems as if you have to manually do so on the device in comparison to Google Home mini which is controlled by voice totally,,,
