Now we're all worked up 45 mins past when we wanted to sleep and I want to know.
Amazon, have we not paid you enough money?!? Does buying your freaking products to mean anything? How about you just give me a routing number to a bank account and just route you all my paychecks? Will your services work right after you've taken all my money? Or will you still want more?
Also. I know for a fact mondo bongo was free on normal Amazon music !

Unfortunately writing this review instead of having a "fun time" with my girl because this stupid POS is garbage.
Don't buy it!!!!
These are great when they work.
It might be the conspiracy theorist in me but I firmly believe you get prioritized bandwidth on cloud processing while a new user or you just have one.
I bought 1 skeptically and it was great. Now I have 2 dots and a flex.
I am plagued by audio books randomly playing at 3am (almost shot my cat when my kitchen echo started playing an audiobook at 3 am and I thought someone was in my house...), constant disconnects, misunderstanding phrases it never had issues with before.
1 good thing. I’ve been getting to work on time more bc I’ll set an alarm. The dot will disconnect from the internet and not reconnect and then it will go off and not recognize any commands so after 20 seconds of yelling at Alexa to turn off or sleep, I’ll sit up, see it red and drag my butt out of bed to rip it out of the wall. This has become a twice weekly occurrence.
Immediately plugging it back in it connects to the Wi-Fi in 30seconds.
Dear God people. If unplugging it and plugging it back in reconnects it, my Wi-Fi isn’t the issue. Write programming to maybe try a reconnect every minute rather than bricking it until unplugged. Like what the heck!
Also. Be aware it’s only a 90 warranty on these hockey pucks from Satan.
Mine was pretty good right through that window.
I’m about to go to Google home and try Craigslisting these things.
Or if they piss me off enough, I might just try to see how much distance I’ll with them in a skeet thrower...
DONT buy these. Please.
