    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.

    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.

    Bought ring camera and this came free for purchase. The dot wasn't available when ring was picked up. Came available 4 days later, I was out of town working and wouldn't get back until day later. They denied me the product 6 hours after closing doors previous night. Spoke with store manager and customer service and they wouldn't give it to me.

    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.

    This is a great start to learning IoT technology. I love the music options. Will be buying more of these for my family at the $29 price tag! A ton of information triggered at the sound of your voice.
