    I really like this Amazon Echo from listening to music to helping with a recipe. Alexa is nice too.

    I like my Amazon Echo because it can tie in with my NEST Thermostat and I can control the temperature both at my house and at my store with a simple voice command. I also like asking Alexa random questions to see what she knows. I like the fact that she learns more the longer you have her. There are some things that it seems like she should know, but doesn't yet. I know she's still learning, heck, so am I!

    We relocated, and His tiny device was my solution to moving GIANT Bose speakers, equalizer, receivers, and rolls of speaker wire. It provides great sound, plays music by request radio her than sorting her albums or cds. Love the look, the ease of setup, and the sound. Win-win for us!

    This thing is awesome. Funny, easy to use and I think even has a personality. Easy to set up and sounds great musically. We use it it for research,music and setting timers for cooking. It will tell you the weather and how traffic looks. The future is finally here! Highly recommend checking this out.

    I have the Amazon Echo in my kitchen where we run around and usually holding food in our hands while prepping or rushing out. It's nice to be able to just call out a certain song or music station to quickly start hearing some music while busy. Also, if we are in a rush to leave and want to know the temperature to make sure to have proper attire. This device just makes life a little simpler and faster.

    Will play your cloud based music or I Heart Radio station with excellent sound. I have also used it to check the weather everyday and my wife uses it for a timer when cooking. I also like it being linked to my calendar and just asking what is on the calendar today and it will tell me.

    This is actually a gift I bought my sister for her big ?? Birthday! I received my echo as a birthday gift from a friend and let me tell you... I LOVE IT!!! It is so sleek and loud and crystal clear! I love waking up and asking Alexa to tell me the weather forecast and news updates. The music sounds awesome too! But let me tell you the "magic" of this echo... I had to go to Italy for a family thing and my hubby couldn't take the time off of work so I went without him (sad face) The best way for me to show him how much I missed him was to wake him up with our favorite song! That's right folks I would wake my husband up from 1000's of miles away with a touch of a button on my cell phone!! He sent me a text "is that you?" Wow!!! I couldn't believe it. So enough said just go out and buy one!!

    Don't know what took me so long to try this out. Easy set up, many skills to choose from and has not failed me. I just set the calendar up and loving that along with how well Alexa integrated with my two WEMO mini plugs. I purchased a second one a week later. The sound is amazing.

    We purchased this on the recommendation of our son and daughter-in-law. It was extremely easy to set up and we use it every day. We love the capability of being able to create a shopping list by talking to Echo and then being able to use that list in the store, even without internet access.
