    This product was recommended to me by my Wife, and her sister. So I bought one of these though Bestbuy and after a couple of days, I had to get it exchanged. I did initially run into issues with it not responding and it doing some weird power cycles (restarts itself). After 3 factory resets, and a lot of aggravation, I had it exchanged. Best Buy was happy to exchange it for me no problem. My replacement one works just fine without any issue. I did get a smart light bulb that came with the Alexa (the first one) and I have bought several other smart light bulbs and plugs to control things with voice command. The setup process is pretty easy, and once the app is installed on my phone, I can configure settings with ease. Its small and takes up very little space. and it can hear me in another room. Its a good product, it might cater to my inner lazyness, but all in all, its nice to have

    I know that there’s a later model but I like the sound from 3 better than 4, better price and the size fits where I want to use it.

    Our nephew wanted "Alexa", so we decided on this little version. It's sound is surprisingly pretty decent. Great price and does everything the other echo devices do.

    Underrated Convenience

    Originally I thought these little things were a joke, but I have two now and I honestly think they’re the biggest lift to my smart home system. Having them around the house makes it possible to hear the door bell ring in any room. I love giving commands in normal voice to turn on and off the lights... and my favorite Command of all... “Play Howard Stern”. Their size makes them so discrete that they vanish behind the coffee maker or the tv and you forget they’re even in the room making it feel like the walls can talk! Great product!

    The quality of the sound coming out of this little device is pretty darn good, but in case you didn't know, it's just a speaker. It came with the TV for no good reason. You can't use this speaker to control the TV - yeah, I tried that. I honestly have no idea why anyone would want to talk to a speaker, that then tries to run apps on your phone. It's just much easier to use the controller. The speach recognition of all players just isn't where it needs to be in order to keep from getting totally frustrated, finding yourself swearing at the machine.
