Can't figure out what to do with it. Got it as a gift. If I dictate a grocery list, how do I get the list  out if it? by the time I dictate a list and, I don.'t know, print it out, isn't it faster to jot it down as usual? Yes, I am clueless. I like my kitchen timer better, I get weather on iPad and news in lots of places. Don't see how to get a radio station on this, but why would I need that when I have satellite radio and tv? Play music? why?. Not putting down the little toy, but as you can tell I am totally not into it. If you love playing with such things, that's great. I get that, but I don't find it fun. I suppose if you are lonely, it would be good to have the Amazon thing to talk back to you. I am putting mine out at our annual garage sale next month because walking by and asking it the temp or forecast just isn't exciting or helpful to me. I thought of giving it to an elderly blind friend, but she doesn't have a computer or wifi, so i don't think she can use it. Demos on QVC emphasized toylike fun but didn't really explain the product well to me. I had already received mine but watched several QVC demos in hopes of learning why I needed this, but they never really explained it well.

@libbyannE  Your neighbor couldn't use it since she doesn't have wifi. 

I love the list feature.  I have an ongoing list.  Whenever I think of something I need I just tell her to add it on.  I can either print the list out when I'm ready to do or I can view the list on my phone at the store. 

I can't imagine why you'd like your kitchen timer better.  All you say  is "Alexa, set timer for 3 minutes" and she does!  What could be better than that?  And the timer is louder than any kitchen, microwave or range timer that I've ever had.

I don't just ask the temp. for fun.  I ask the temp. to know what to wear that day.

You need to "try" to use her to like her.  If you have all ready decided in thinking the other stuff is better and you don't want to "try" to learn how to use her, you won't.

Yes, I think you need to sell it at your garage sale.  Someone will be thrilled.
