Of the echo devices in our home this one is a convenient size, it listens well, and it produces decent sound. The larger echo device has much better sound and listens about as well, but is more obtrusive and has to be accommodated to project sound for listening enjoyment. The echo "show" has the added dimension of "dropping in" with a camera so you can see who you are talking to and get visuals, but it is much harder of hearing. I actually got this echo dot to use by our pool to control our ION Bluetooth outdoor speaker (which is also AWESOME!). This gives us the ultra convenient options to control our listening experience without using our wet hands or getting out of the pool to control a device. The dot can access music from Apple or from Prime and change volume, mute, pause and switch playlists or play ad hoc from anywhere within earshot. This device is decent, but what it can do to innovate with technology is the actual power and usefulness. I DO recommend this device.

It works as expected. Use it every day to turn on lights and listen to music. Integrated well with TP-Link Smart Plugs. Easy to connect other apps.

Not a bad little device for a introduction too Alexa and all that Alexa can do. The sound is surprising from such a small package. It's clear decent bass, with good volume range. Very easy to set-up and definitely affordable.

SOUND: For such a small device the sound is surprisingly good. It gets loud and sounds decently
clear. For a casual music listener you likely won't complain. Keep in mind these are not meant to compete with the Homepod or Sonos One. Stereo pairing sounds better than a single device.
FUNCTIONALITY: The speaker is very responsive to "Alexa." The two feature I like most are 1) drop-in and 2) Announcements. The drop-in feature allows the user to open communication with another echo device. Announcements act as intercom allowing you to send a message across all echo devices on the network.

We bought ours when they had the half price sale. I dont think I would pay the fifty dollars they sell for. But if your like my wife and dont want the phones in the bedroom. It's a good alarm clock with different ways to wake someone. Or play white noise/ocean/music for sleeping. Asking questions results in interesting responses about 20% of the time and needing to ask again.
Overall if you want a home charging station outside of the bedroom but still want access to news, weather, and internet searches. This is a good product. Again, just wait for the sales.
