you need to link to a Bluetooth speaker though and doesn't look as nice as the larger unit

we use ours daily in the kitchen. Admittedly as a radio most the time or one of my playlists. Daughter has a dot with a small Bluetooth speaker and it works well

nead to be an amazon Prime member to get best value regards music out of it

Have the beast - love it, easy set up. The Dot has mixed reviews.

 

[Mr Vertigo]

They're shite. Bought one and two dots for the kids about 4 months ago and they've barely been used.

I've got a sonos set up at the moment. What would the echo give me?

you could link a DOT to the Sonos.. would depend if you are a Prime member

wife uses the echo in the kitchen as a timer and alarm a lot of the time

I really dont get the fascination with them. Do you not just turn on the radio to listen to music or put a CD in or play the downloaded album.

Is it not just a toy for the lazy?

convenience factor

get up..

say "Alexa Radio 2" job done

she is cooking something.. "she says Alexa. Timer 20 minutes"

music on the radio I like. I say Alexa "what is this song"

I have a load of playlists so I just say "Alexa play Epping playlist" or any individual song or genre..

works for us well

But I have things like that anyway. A watch or phone for a timer, MP3 player with my playlist.

You have been conned by Amazon marketing mate

But only if you remain in one room at all times though? Otherwise you would have to have them dotted around the house as you move
