    It's a great update from the original echo. It's nice that it has a hub built in but it is severely limited. To use the full functions of the hue you still need a hue hub. I was very disappointed with this and would not recommend this echo.

    It’s a. I’ve adder to our existing devices, it’s a fad since we are not fully depended / committed to Smart Living” devices. It not as useful as it may be for other WHI rely on Alexa for certain actions.

    I like the Echo dot, but was unimpressed with the sound quality of its speaker. Also the Zigbee hub was incompatible with my favorite smart switches (GE ZWave). So i returned it and got a smartthings hub.

    this is my first experience with Alexa. hard to command, I guess because this is my first time. I did have to reset because she stopped working. I am reading up on Alexa more so I’ll know how to command her.

    They make it seem like you can pretty much ask anything to Alexa but she never knows anything. It is very non responsive at times too.

    Sound Quality for Books & Talk radio is terrible

    I found the Echo Plus acceptable except for the sound quality for audio books & talk radio. It has too much bass for these & Amazon has removed the ability to adjust bass, mid-range, & treble. Consequently, I am returning the unit because my primary use is to turn lights on/off (the Dot works fine for that) & listening to talk radio on XM.
