Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Most of the negative reviews that I have read are complaints that the device did not do something the buyer wanted. But the tasks they wanted were not in the description of the Echo Connect abilities. Do these reviewers yell at their dog for not doing the dishes? Do they ride their car into the lake and then complain that it is a lousy boat? The device does what it says, and very well. I got it mostly to add safety for my disabled family member, but it has been useful, and amusing, well beyond that. Turning an Echo Dot into a hands-free intercom and caregiver monitor has been worth every penny. The following exchange was worth the cost: Alexa, drop in on So-and-so......(connection made)....Hey, dude, I have a migraine. Please take care of the dogs? Whoa, that sucks. Of course I will. Can I get you anything? Thanks, yeah. Two ibuprofen and strong black coffee. Comin' up. Let me put on the kettle and release the hounds. So-and-so, you are an angel.....Alexa, drop out....(intercom off).
