    Extremely entertaining as well as helpful. Great for people who's first language is not English -- works in almost any language, and understands people who's English is not perfect.

    I use the Clock feature way more than I thought I would. Having the clock in a graded into the echo saves precious table space. Works great and the clock has an auto dim feature.

    This was a free gift for purchasing a tv. I love it! The old lady no longer has to yell upstairs to the chitlins. All she has to do is tell Alexa to tell everybody dinner is ready.

    I am sure i would take way more pleasure out of the dot if I had more smart things to connect to it. However it makes me happy when it plays music for me, or my audio book. But it makes me most happy with the reminders and timers i can set without finding my phone.

    This came as a freebie with the purchase of a large screen TV. I'd rather have had a gift card or future discount, but free is free. Some people trust Amazon and Alexa to eavesdrop on everything going on in their house. I don't so I had no use for it. But I was able to sell it online for $25, so that turned out OK.

    If you need to play music you better be sit close to ask -you have to have Wi-Fi in order to play any thing and app on your phone. It does have good sound to play music but not to use for your tv. It would be nice if rechargeable instead of keeping plugged in.
