    This was our first Alexa product. I was excited to see what all the hype was about, especially for the low price. It was a great way to get easy, voice-based music into our son's room. As a music player, it's awesome. It integrates well with Apple Music, and is much easier than connecting a phone to a Bluetooth speaker just to listen to music. It makes it a casual, spontaneous thing (instead of an intentional, dedicated activity we're far less likely to engage in). Alexa hears well and the Echo Dot sounds pretty good in a small room. It's nowhere near the sound quality of our HomePod -- but it was a fraction of the price. A few hang-ups, though... First, Alexa is great with general knowledge, but pretty poor when it comes to voice command flexibility. Siri on the HomePod understands conversational English far better (and variations of commands -- read: Siri seems to look for intent rather than a static catchphrase). When we use Alexa Skills designed for kids, it really stands out to me how limited the commands are. If we get them even slightly off, the games break. I should be able to say "sure" instead of "yes" and have it know that I'm giving an affirmative command. Alexa is also very finicky with smart home accessories. Sometimes she knows which light I want turned on/off and sometimes she has no clue. I wish it plugged into HomeKit. In general, the skills kinda stink. They're gimmicks. That aspect is disappointing. But as a very low cost and pretty good smart speaker for music in our kids room? This thing is great for that.
