And I Thought My 2nd Gen Echo Sounded Nice
I bought a refurb 2nd gen Echo and really enjoy the rich sound vs my kids Dots (2nd and 3rd gens ) and it was my introduction to the world of Echos, Smart Home, Skills, and Routines.I've tied the new (blue) one into everything my black (2nd gen) was doing and it only took about 5 minutes to get it hooked up and everything in my "cave" (the group in my den ) switched over via the Alexa app. The sound isn't incredibly better on the blue than the black but it is definitely better, especially in the lower bass notes. The color of the skin is also more pleasing to my eye though I still really like the black on black of the prior one. The white frame of the new one is a little sterile to me but where I have it located it's more heard than seen anyway.Another thing that will probably never be matter to me again is the blue one weighs about 1/3 less than the black one. The ergonomics difference between boxy edges and rounded edges is totally up to the individual but the rounder one makes it look more relaxed to the eye.If you have a second generation Echo this might not be worth the upgrade but to go from a Dot to a full sized Echo is most assuredly a good idea if the sound matters. The 3rd gen Echo Dot ain't half bad for its size but if bass is a must an Echo is in order. Looks changes isn't the only thing different between the 2nd and 3rd but there's nothing game changing between the 2.I'm glad I got this one but my black one will still get used.

I have several Echos and wanted to add an additional pair to expand music to another room and to create a stereo pair in another. The sandstone color gen 3 Echos were out of stock, so I decided to take a chance and order two certified refurbished units. They arrived in pristine condition, both with AC adapter cords and the little blue setup guide. Following the instructions, I plugged in and connected them to my network. One unit did not connect the first time but did on the second try. The other unit connected right away. This quirkiness in connecting is not uncommon even in new units. Both are working fine and I would buy them again. I am very satisfied.
