This smart speaker doesn’t do what I hoped it would do with my Sony TV and receiver. Sound is okay...

Bought this at a good price, but it has its limitations. Don't expect it to be as good as Alexa.

Amazon Alex is more targeted and you get access to their music service also. This required you to have YouTube red.

My daughter likes to use this to listen to music. We got it free with the purchase of a chromebook.
