    I have been putting off getting an Echo for a while. I don’t know why but I finally got one. Two days later I got a second one! I am just learning all the possibilities. Listening to XM in the home is much simpler now. Just say, “Alexa, play xxxx on SiriusXM.” Also, walking into a dark house is no longer an issue. A simple command will turn on the lights. There are many more things for me learn about with Alexa.

    This echo dot is great to have in every room. I mostly use it for music and for controlling the smart light bulbs. The audio quality is adequate and it is great when you pair it with another echo dot to get stereo sound! Sometimes the mic misses some commands, but it seldom happens.

    I bought everyone in my family a dot for Christmas gifts this year. Very easy to set-up! I have my Christmas tree and porch lights connected for automation. I even added my work out routine with timers as a custom blueprint. The games are great too! I especially love the drop-in feature that I use to check in with the kids or use as an intercom! Alexa even connects to my firestick and controls my tv functions.

    If you use Amazon at all this is a purchase that pays for itself. You can sync it with your Amazon account. I don't use the shopping aspect of it but mainly ask it questions or will have it play my Amazon music. Amazon music has such a wide selection and its volume gets really loud so you can listen to it throughout the house. It has been a big hit here.

    It is so easy to set up reminders, be it periodic reminders or one off reminder. Sound is much improved from previous echo dot. For web searches, I find google voice to be better.

    This is the perfect product for elderly people, especially if they live alone. It allows them the safety of being able to contact help if they have fallen and cannot get up. They are able to call for help by simply asking Alexa to call daughter or son or emergency. Simply program your phonebook with their name and number and they can just ask for the first name and then Alexa can call directly for help. This adds a very big piece if mind to know they can quickly contact you if they need help. It also answers questions like what time is it or what is the weather forecast. Or it will play their favorite music by just requesting Alexa to play their music. You can even program Alexa to turn on and off lights and other things at a certain time or on demand.

    Echo Dot and Alexa help!

    Echo Dot is my way to get to Alexa. Alexa is my go-to when I want to know what the temperature is outside or what the day’s weather will bring. In combination with another device, we use Echo Dot and Alexa to shut off a lamp and turn on a nightlight. Echo Dot and Alexa tell us when an Amazon package has been delivered at the mailbox. We enjoy the convenience and you will, too.
