Just upgraded our kitchen Echo from a cheap Dot to the first-generation Echo Sow. At $129 (now through then end of Amazon Prime week) it’s a bit of a no brainier upgrade. The sound quality isn’t quite a rich as the Bose we had the Dot connected to, but it’s pretty decent and a lot less wires and connection hassles. Just starting to play with the touch screen aspect of the Show. So far, it’s a very nice addition. The only thing I would say about the display is that it doesn’t vertically articulate, so it needs to be placed higher than a standard countertop for a good viewing angle. Luckily where we have it in our kitchen is perfect.
