Great household assistant!

Best way to bring all smart home products together
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Initially I figured this would be just a fun toy, so I resisted buying one for a long time. I finally gave in and kept my receipt in the event I needed to return it. I absolutely love it and even purchased the Echo Dot. It is a great way to tie all your smart home products together and to simply ask for something to happen. There are plenty of YouTube videos of unique ways to use Alexa. I use Wink (not too happy with it), but with Alexa, those products work very well. The speaker is excellent when you pair it to your phone to listen to music. Alexa is not 100% perfect and she does not always understand what you are saying, but it is improving.

Helpful, but I havent used full potential
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We now have 3 Echos and 1 google home. We prefer the echo because it seems to sync with more of our music platform. We haven't added to our smart home yet. However it is so useful with coordinating schedules, playing music, and just a general quizzes about random facts.

Still trying to figure out what i can do with it.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Haven't tried anything but playing music and the radio. Have two Echoes in the house. When I hooked this new one up, the other one came on. Can't quite figure our how to work them separately. May have to go back to Best Buy and ask one of your assistants.

Great sound!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and if you can get it on sale well worth the money. The only down side i have is that i have my music service through google which doesn't work on this device. Also available on this device and not the google speaker is connecting to office 365 calendars.

Lots of fun
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lots of fun! It plays music, games, weather, and so much more. However, when making a phone call or text message, I hope they develop a way to determine who is able to send you a text message or phone call and make it so that you can call anyone you so choose in United States not just those that have the app or device. I do feel that Google may have a better device because they have more advanced database. Sometimes Alexa does not understand what you were asking and you would think she would be able to know it. But it is fun however if I had to do it over again I would've probably purchased a Google because I can just tell that it will probably be able to do more then just play music.

Great device, kids love it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Device is great, easy setup (less than 10 minutes) and have had no issues. It's recommended to not be near walls, and will confirm, it works better away from walls.
