    It's a decent tablet but I feel it really pushes you to buy buy and buy. Keep in mind it is made by Amazon, so they really push their services to you. My biggest gripe is that it contains ads on the lock screen. It would be very easy, and enticing, for a child to attempt to purchase games. You have to pay $20 to Amazon to remove those ads. I only wish this was known beforehand, such as on the box or during setup.

    Amazon Fires are easier tablets to use. Love having SD Card access. Prefer reading books on them. Made easier now to block the kids usage.
