Now that you've had your Amazon Echo for some time, how do you like it?



Is it worth messing with?



Any issues with it? How is the Bluetooth connectivity and does it play music well?



Mine is scheduled to ship post June 16th and I'm wondering if I'm pissing away a c-note.

I love mine. Haven't used a lot of the additional features they've been adding as of late, because my wife commandeered it for the kitchen.  It is great for music, way better sounding than any other $100 bluetooth speaker.  It plays amazon prime radio and pandora.  It can answer a ton of questions, create a shopping list, and order items by voice from Amazon.  For the money, its a steal considering its capabilities.

I use it to play Pandora mostly. It's worth it for that alone to me. Occasionally I ask it for the weather or to set a timer.

It'd be well worth it if it could work as speakerphone for my cellphone.

I didn't know it wouldn't work as a speakerphone. That's a bummer.



I've been wanting a new Bluetooth speaker for music, but I stuck waiting on this damn Echo. Don't need a speaker if Echo sounds good.



I appreciate the info!

I got mine a few weeks ago.  I use it and the kids love it.  Just got the IFTTT email today and going to try out some of the "recipes" soon.
