    This is the first Echo that we have used and really like it. It is easy to set up according to my husband. There are things that we would like to do but don't have instructions on how to do them.

    Alexa works beautifully and it sounds amazing the music and being able to use your prime with Alexis just amazing. But one thing that would be nice is if I had an ethernet port otherwise love it

    Very good at controlling smart home devises and organizing schedules for things like the thermostat and lights. The speaker has decent sound, good enough to listen to music for my preferences.

    Very convenient, I connected it to my soundbar in the bedroom, so i could be in the kitchen and tell alexa to play a certain song for me. I use the hue lightbulb to turn off and on my lights, dim them when im watching movies or playing video games. I love that i can name the light settings different names for different occasions. and i bought led string lights that i can have alexa change colors as well. 10/10 recommend one for a bedroom.

    This is my 2nd Amazon Echo original. I have dot and a 2nd Gen. I find the speaker on the original Amazon echo to be superior to both the 2nd Gen. and of course the dot. It's fun, love it!

    Bought an echo plus and it has been better than I expected. Primarily use it for music in the LR but we are starting to use it for other functions such as the weather and playing jeopardy.

    Sound quality is excellent with great bass and overall room-filling sound; very Bose-like. Also, the smart home function works great and does exactly what it's supposed to do. The device is very responsive even with multiple voices giving it commands. Setup was straightforward, including bluetooth. The ability to make a voice call by command is a great feature, as is the overall integration of the phone functions into the device.

    Gave it as a gift to provide a sense of safety and security for someone living in the country. Turning the lights on before entering the house is a big deal when you live alone.

    I researched blu-tooth speakers. I read about the echo. I have a dot and echo plus. I like the dot because of its size. The speaker is better on the plus. It is loud enough for a room. I wish you get make a bit louder. I have enjoyed all the features with the product. You can't go wrong with an echo product. It is easy to use and hook up. I have not had any issues of it being kicked off wifi or anything like that.

    Received Alexa Plus for Christmas and love it. Alexa has so many uses and its fun. Alexa Plus is a great, high quality speaker and we use it to listen to Amazon Music, Pandora, Spotify. Quick check for the weather of the day, setting timers, reminders, shopping lists, alarms, and much, much more. Added Echo Dots to the bedrooms so each user can get morning updates or listen to music in privacy of their on rooms.
