    I'm sure it does way more than play music. I'm not letting any hockey puck react to my voice and control my home. The music good though.

    It is a great gadget if you are comfortable with the installation process. I bought it around the time the Ring customers were being hacked, so i had an IT friend checking the connection to the wifi to make sure it is password protected & behind my firewall. I got it free with a fire tv pusrchase.

    Much improved over the 2nd gen. Great small footprint. However, I would opt for the regular size Echo over this. The regular sized one picks up my voice without yelling and the speaker is much better than on this echo dot. Still a great product if you are looking for a more affordable or smaller echo device.

    This is a basic standard Alexa device. It is great for lower traffic areas where you seek connectivity. Its great for laundry rooms, garages, etc. where you seek to stay connected but don't want to pay a high price for devices with more capabilities, better sound, etc.

    My daughter is loving it. She uses it for a lot of chores as well as entertainment. It's a long list if I go to write how she is utilizing the device. a must have type of thing when you deal with smart devices. Feels like you have a virtual assistant available 24/7

    Got this for free with a promo purchasing a TV. Once we had it we enjoyed it enough to purchase another one for our daughter's room that is on another floor for Xmas. We love the drop-in feature which allows us to talk to them through the device VS. yelling across the house for their attention.

    The sound is much better in the 3rd generation echo than the original version. The cost was excellent and easy to set up!

    I really didn't think I wanted one of these but since I read technical stuff and I have the books on kindle, I can have it read the section for me and read along with it mark areas I need to review or comment on and pause Alexa. You have to get used to the voice and the reading pace and of course IV is not 4 but ivy.

    Worth the money. So many fun skills. But I was shocked at how frequently I use it for alarms and timers, weather updates, listening to music and best of all....Alexa finds my phone for me!

    Hestitantely we added this to our bonus room, it was nice to have Alexa play holiday music on demand, or ask the scores of sports games.
