    Setup of the Echo Dot is extremely cumbersome. It took several attempts before I was able to make it to work. A week later it lost WIFI connection, for whatever reason. I had to spend two hours to restore the connection. For sure, the instructions are terrible. Answering simple questions by the ECHO DOT is OK, But not with slightly more complicated questions. Not impressive.
