    One of the best Amazon products to own, especially if you're a frequent prime shopper or Amazon music user. I have two and might need another, because my kids want one for their toy room.

    I love having Alexa. I can lie in my bed and ask Alexa the temp for the next day and I get it. What terrific technology. I know Alexa can do a lot, and I’m still learning, but what I have figured out, I love!

    How having a personal assistant without the payroll. Ask Alexa for help with "virtually" anything. Weather, news, schedules, general info..she is ready to work for you. What else to say?

    I really enjoy talking with Alexa, She is a lot of fun and knows just about anything. She won't talk dirty, which is a good thing, but she has no problem with breaking wind.
