So Cute !
4 Stars
So Cute !
I ordered this Echo Dot device simply because it hasthe face of a Panda on it... and I am a Panda Lover.I wanted a second Amazon Echo Dot device to putin the bedroom and I also bought an Amazon EchoGlow device to go with it. It's awesome that theymade one of these with the face of a Panda on it.I Love it !I have 2 Amazon Echo Dots now... both 4th Gen.This Panda one came with 1 Year of Kids+ FreeTime installed. Due to the fact that my Husbandand I do not have children... the Kids+ Free Timefeature is disabled. I was able to disable it throughmy Alexa App. on my tablet.This is a great little device to have. I highly recommendthese devices. I feel like I have someone with me at thehouse when I am home alone. It's great ! I hope, if youdecide to purchase one of these, that you enjoy it asmuch as I do ! Have a FABULOUS day !!UPDATE: SEPT. 09, 2021... I have only had this device forAbout 6 months. Lately, the past week, she doesn't wantto respond when I talk to her. When I bought this deviceI did not think that after only 6 months it would just stopresponding. I have had to unplug her and plug her back inand reboot her. So frustrating. I even called AmazonCustomer Service numerous times to try to see if theycould help me,, and they walked me through a factoryreset. The device worked for about a week after that andnow she quit working AGAIN. This device really is moretrouble than she was worth... and I paid close to $50for this device. I cut my rating down to 4 Stars because ofthis. I just don't know what to do with it anymore.
