Easy to use and fun, but limited appeal
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have both Google Home and Amazon Echo. I also have a Harmony Hub and several smart home devices. I love the smart home integration and once you activate lights and your entertainment center with your voice, good luck going back. For now, the Echo has better integration with my smart home, but once Google Home catches up, I will be switching to Google for the sole reason I subscribe to Google Play Music. But to be honest all of these devices have limited uses and the "fun" or "cool" appeal wears off soon. It's fun to ask Alexa questions or ask her to tell you a joke, but that gets old quick. It's also cool to order something from Amazon, but I rarely do so because I like to look at what I'm ordering. The sound quality is passable for a small speaker. I prefer to send music to my receiver through other means (i.e. Google Home and Chromecast Audio). At the end of the day, it's a fun device to have that provides some useful "skills" (ordering Dominos is cool, but I've only done it once) and games (I like Jeopardy) but it's true usefulness is its ability to be the voice hub for your smart home, if you're interested in having one...

Awesome family tech addition
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Echo is a great price of tech for the household. From playing music, controlling outdoor lights to answering numerous questions the kids have. So much Echo can do and they keep adding "skills" which are apps for it. No Brainer!!

Love This More Than I Would Have Thought
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was in need of a new small speaker for music in the kitchen. The Echo has been a surprisingly awesome addition to my home. You know that best friend in college you listened to music with who had the most extensive selection of bootleg cassette tapes you had ever seen? With my prime account through Amazon, I have spent countless hours playing music long forgotten. "Amazon, play {insert artist here}..." and I am reconnected to old music and exposed to new. I love asking Amazon about the weather while making my coffee. The sound quality is fantastic. There is so much that the Echo can do that I have yet to explore. I started using the grocery list this morning and feel like there is more and more to get out of my Echo. I will be buying an Echo for my folks soon- and my teenagers love it. 5 stars!

Satisfied....
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like being able to just tell Echo to play music, or asking for the weather. Also works great with general questions. Only thing I'm not too happy with is it sometimes picks up what the TV is saying and attempts to do something with it. Looking forward to adding smart devices to the house and integrating Echo with all of that.

On my way to a smart home!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So, after visiting my sister and brother in law who use an Amazon Echo to run just about everything in their house, I just had to have one. I purchased my own Amazon Echo the minute I got home from my trip. I am now on my way to building my smart home. My wife and I have enjoyed using Alexa to help us with recipe measurements, check the weather for the day, set reminders and play our favorite music. We are now working toward building and buying items such as wifi light switches, a smart thermostat and a few other items that will all work seamlessly with Alexa. It will take a while to get it all done but it is a lot of fun!! The Amazon Echo is such a blast to use. Take your first step in building your smart home with the purchase of an Amazon Echo!

nice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the echo for 179.00, it is no on sale for 139.00. My friend bought one at home depot and they gave $40.00 refund. I had mine for 3 weeks but Best Buy would not give me a refund. Alexia is working great. I am going to buy me the smaller echo. At Bed Bath And beyond I get 20% 0ff. At home depot I get 10% off.

Interesting Device with many possibilities
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device is very interesting and I am just learning the possibilities that it can be used to do. I get the weather, the morning news highlights and it will find the kind of music that I like. I also understand it can be integrated into my home security system. I am looking forward to exploring the possibilities.

Simple setup, excellent funcationality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Amazon Echo is very simple to setup. We found the shopping list alone was enough justification for purchasing the device. Reading news and Kindle books are two of the options we use daily. Lots of potential for future uses.

Fun and practical tech
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Echo looks good. It is the same as the EchoDot except the speaker is much better. It is very handy for finding and playing music. The App gives you lots of suggestions for queries, and we're having a good time with it.
