    I have several Echo units. Works as expected and setup is consistent. Buying from Amazon might be easier for those that want part of the setup process pre-completed.

    Works great, seems faster than Google home, can also work as a Bluetooth hub for sengled bulbs which is nice, just wish it didn't advertise to me all the time even though I turned off all advertising settings (at least the ones Amazon lets you...)

    Bought this for my dad who loves electronics and to his surprise he can yell out Alexa and she talks back. Let just say he has a new found love with electronics.

    Love this item, especially since I got it at no extra cost when purchasing a Fire TV. Nice to be able to set it up on the screen instead of an app on a separate device.

    So far I have been pleased with the Echo Show. Large display works well with my Ring Doorbell. This is my first product of this type (yes, really) so still seeing all it can do but it works great.

    We use it basically as a doorbell cam for when people ring the doorbell if/when we don't have a phone on us and want to see who is at the front door. If you're more hooked into the Alexa/Amazon product line, this is a good (albeit a little small) option for a smart speaker/display.

    The convenience of having the Echo Synch module is truly a blessing. Now I can travel with ease knowing that I can drop in at home anytime and make sure everything is ok.

    I got this as a free gift when I ordered a ring doorbell. Although I haven’t used either yet, I understand they work together. It should be fun to have this after I get my door bell installed.

    Love this little thing. After setting up my devices (which was a little complicated, like cameras, TV, gaming consoles, vacuum, lights, ect...) I use it every day.

    Not a bad device. Worth the every 10 or 20 to step up from the dot. The screen size is not ideal. Youve gott get pretty close to actually see whats on the small screen. It about the size of an small iPhone screen. Sound quality is 3 out 5. Its got that speaker phone kinda sound to it.

    Nice to have a clock around, with a speaker, that can give me the weather, allow me to look in on and communicate with the house while I'm not there, etc...

    A terrible clock and a poor media device.

    I have owned many, many Echo's including Echo Auto. This was my first Show. I picked this size as a bedside alarm, music, and podcast player. First as a clock it stinks. You can set times to avoid ads so at least when you wake you can see the clock but most of the time it's worthless ads and suggestions and a tiny, tiny clock in the corner. Second as an Echo it's not so great either. Its sensitivity to a wake word is TERRIBLE. As a speaker not even as good as a Dot. As a Podcast player it does not allow you to choose a season or episode, just plays the latest even from Amazon Music. This replaced a Lenovo Google Assistant device that did every single one of these things far better. Really I didn't get a 5" screen to watch videos so that doesn't offset the things it needs to do well daily.

    I enjoy all of the features and the voice recognition is brilliant! It handles every task I give to it and more. I can't wait to purchase another one . It pairs well with all of my Echo Dots.

    While it looks nice and has the Alexa interface, this alarm clock leaves A LOT to be desired. Night mode works every so often. The alarm works sporadically at best. There's a lot with this clock one would love to turn off, and can't.
