Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

July, 2019: Updating my review of this product after about six months of use. I'm sorry to say after six months of great service from my Amazon Input, it has started to suddenly drop connections to the Bose Soundtouch 30 I connected it to. It's performed flawlessly until the past 30 days during which I've tried everything I can to debug why it just "stops" streaming music to my Soundtouch 30. Telling Alexa to "resume" results in "I'm sorry, I'm having understanding right now" and giving Alexa another command results in the same. At this point I'm declaring the device useless and I'm not going to replace it with the same device (currently listed at $14.99 on Amazon.) Very disappointed this has happened and there doesn't appear to be any warranty left on it since I cannot find a way to return it for replacement. Finally, as others have pointed out, the Amazon Echo Dot is a better option due to it also having bluetooth and its own speaker which actually sounds pretty darn good. I've moved my Amazon Echo Dot to my Bose Soundtouch 30 and it's been flawless as opposed to the Echo Input. Hey Amazon, what's the warranty on the Echo Inputs anyway? I cannot seem to find a single thing on it. December, 2018 Review: After purchasing a Bose Soundtouch 30 that failed to deliver on Alexa integration despite numerous promises from "that vendor" I decided to give the Echo Input as a last ditch attempt to find some usefulness for this worthless and over priced speaker from a vendor who's name I will not mention. Suffice it to say, within 5 minutes of receiving my Amazon Input, I have a fantastic sounding smart speaker that delivered on the functionality that the Soundtouch 30 speaker failed on every level to deliver!!!! Without the Amazon Input I was ready to chuck this over priced dumb speaker to the trash. Now I have the smart speaker I really wanted! Thank you Amazon for salvaging an otherwise wasted purchase in a Bose product!!! UPDATE: if you have a Bose Soundtouch speaker and are having some difficulty getting it to pair with your Echo Input, you should use the Bose Soundtouch speaker software on your PC or Phone App to perform an update to the latest Bowe software on your Sound Touch. Once done, it will sync up via Bluetooth quickly. You do not need to use the Aux input on the Sound Touch with the Echo Input. And in closing, I think Bose owes Amazon a huge thank you for enabling all the Alexa capabilities that Bose failed massively to deliver. I personally will never buy another Bose product because of their broken promises to deliver.
