All Alexa are very similar

I just ordered it and should have it hopefully by tomorrow. The buttons on my clock radio by my bed no longer work and the time that's supposed to be automatic picks up time and is now like 10 minutes ahead.

 

I have one of the old Alexa little tower like things and love them so this was a no brainer when I could use the GIFT code on it. And I like that it will tell you the temperature on the screen. When I used to run I'd wake up and ask Alexa how freaking cold it was outside before I decided if it was going to be a running morning. Smiley LOL

For years I used a Bose Wave CD/radio player for my alarm clock.  The sound was beautiful.  It no longer works so thinking about the Alexa Spot. 

 

I have a regular Alexa I've had for years, but like the screen on the Spot for time, temperature, etc.

@Sunshine Kate I have a Dot in the living room and recently bought the Spot for the kitchen.  I had a little blue tooth speaker for the kitchen to play music and it just wouldn't hold a charge anymore.

 

I'm loving the Spot so much that I ordered one for the bedroom.  The display is very nice, and, I like playing the ambient noise sounds to fall asleep.  Plus the small size is great for the nightstand.

 

The kitchen Spot allows me to catch up on headlines, sport scores, and all sorts of info, plus play music.  Really enjoying it.

I have the Echo show and two of the towers.  I didn't know this one existed.  I see they had one on over the weekend for $50 that sold out and also have a Black Friday one for $25.  Do you know what the difference is?I would love one for my night stand.

@Pecky The only Black Friday Spot related product I'm seeing is just the STAND for the Spot.  See below.  Is that what you are referring to?

@LdyBugz  The DOT does the exact same thing.   

 

@Pecky "Do you know what the difference is?"

Go on Amazon's site & review the specs for each product.

@Mz iMacYep, I know.  I was just trying to relay why I use it in the bedroom.  Thanks though!  😃
