    I love my Echo. Simple and easy to use....and handy for quick answers to questions you would otherwise have to look up. For fun..ask to play songs, tell jokes, and report on the weather.

    The Amazon Echo is awesome! My 2 year old daughter uses it for bed time and she knows how to tell it to play "baby shark" lol! We have also programmed our Echo to turn lights and alarm on and off. Would recommend!

    I purchased two Echo Dots when they were on sale, one for the main floor and another for the basement. Installation was exceedingly simple. Sound is better than I might have expected. In my small house Alexa can even hear me in the next room. Her hearing may almost be too good. After adding Echo Flex in the kitchen, I' m never sure which is going to answer me. Alexa and I are learning together. Mostly we get along.

    Since we bought Alexa life became so much easier in the house. Switching light on and off, asking about the weather, news or just every day trivia. We also enjoy playing games like Jeopardy with it.

    Alexa is an integral part of my life at this point. Then snagging these guys for less than twenty a piece during the sale… perfection!

    Great addition for a smart home powered by Alexa. Use one in each bathroom for automated lights, music while in the shower and temperature control of the water. Highly recommend.

    I've enjoyed having this smart speaker especially because of how cheap it is! It's a great product and I definitely recommend it. It's nice being able to say "Alexa" and getting answers and help whenever I need it.

    Still getting to know how to work it. It’s nice to just say something and it does whatever you asked it to. Even though it’s little it has great sound!

    Great little assistant

    This is a great little assistant! I also have the Google nest too but I actually like this better for adding stuff to my grocery shopping list and alarms. It Can do so much more even with Bluetooth and setting up default music, news and podcasts. Also you can set up your roku and Amazon firestick to it, also if you shop a lot through prime it tells you when your package will arrive and when it was just delivered. Yes I heard rumors about the Assistants being like a big brother but who knows? Lol

    When used with smart lights and smart plugs, makes things more convenient. When paired with ring doorbell you don't really need a chime as these make an announcement when the button is pressed. I love the play everywhere option for listening to music around the house. But be aware, Alexa can be both deaf and ignorant at times.

    Glad I spent $24.99 on Black Friday. What a deal. Easy setup, works better than I expected. I ended up buying 2 for $49.98 the price of one costs that much not on sale. I’m happy. Alexa does it all. Thanks Best Buy.
