    Great sound for it's size. The only pet peeve is that when you grab it and lift it while playing it shuts off. Must be a touch to turn off thing, but all I have to do is to tell Alexa to "play music" and it resumes. Glad I bought it.

    Not sure yet. Haven’t fully set it up yet. It’s for my elderly mom’s room at her assisted living home. But I think she will like the convenience and options.

    If you intend to use this primarily as a Bluetooth Music speaker as I did you’ll be disappointed. Fair sound. Needs to be plugged in. If you want a smart assistant it works fine. I just don’t need that.

    Its works fine like my 3rd gen. But the soeaker is not good. Once over half volume it compresses the sound sooooooo bad. Its really horrible and im and audio engineer. The 3rd geb speaker is actually better and can handle louder volunes well. This soeaker does not.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    We love our Alexa's, wish there was a way to connect them all together instead of having to stop and start another when going into a new room like the google pods work.
