    Don't bring this little spy bot into your home. I'm sure it works fine, but it's literally spying on you 24/7.

    Not a fan. Great for some not for others. It’s a all about personal preference. We tried it, worked as advertised,

    It’s like having a cat around the house. Sometimes you forget about it being around, until it does something to scare you. We do enjoy playing Question if the Day, and hearing the Fun Fact of the Day.

    I really like the form factor. However, music still doesn't sound too great and you constantly have to yell to get Alexa to understand you. With that said, be for the price it serves a lot of function.

    Does an adequate job of providing a connected experience. Games and trivia are a short term distraction. Most value is in the bluetooth speaker functionality. Doesn't really provide much but a distraction with a speaker.

    Luckily we received this free with another purchase, because I would have never paid for it. It didn’t come with any useful instructions and I can’t see what is special about it. I guess I will do more research about it.

    So the games on Alexa, especially question of the day are super fun and she gives great facts BUT she’s consistently glitching when it comes to playing music and answering basic questions.

    Tired of Alexa and her mediocrity. I have removed them all from the house. She isn't smart enough and just has a lot of random skills. Google assistant is way more helpful.

    I enjoyed this product for a few months, used it for music, but unfortunately the speakers are already blown out and it’s unusable. If you’re going to use it for other things it’s great.

    We do not have accents or speak weird but Alexa doesn't understand a lot of what we say. It can be a bit annoying, but when I connect and use it as a Bluetooth speaker it is great.
