Re: Amazon Alexa Gone Wild!
Pros:
*out of the box, Alexa felt very high quality. I was surprised by the heavy weight, which I interpreted as a sign of good quality. A light speaker will likely result in muffled sound.
*alexa has a very human like voice. It's very clear that it's computer generated, but she sounds crisp, clear, and elicits emotion in certain phrases she speaks.
Cons:
*when music is playing above volume 5, Alexa begins to have trouble hearing me.
*alexa can have quite an attitude. I will call her name, she will make a noise and glow blue, signifying she is listening, and then when I am mid sentence she will turn off and stop listening to me just like my wife.
*she requires a plug. I like to listen to music while in the shower, which requires me having to unplug Alexa, take her to the shower, plug her in, and then reboot her.

Re: Amazon Alexa Gone Wild!
There are wireless versions, portable charging ports etc...
Also you can put Alexa on your Kindle or phone as well. I have the home version, the kindle version..The only issues I run into are: 1)If I'm not at Kam's it is also linked to the home version as well as my kindle so he will give it a command and things will pop up on my kindle. His granddaughter played a children's song about 15 times in a row and my kindle kept telling my about frozen! Ughhhh.I was trying to sleep at the time and had to get up and tell my kindle to UNLINK. 2) I don't think it likes Kam..We can both ask her the same question and Alexa will answer me and tell him "Sorry,I don't know the answer to that question" Haha I told him that's because he isn't nice to her. Although when she does answer him, I have caught him saying "Thank you". I keep telling him that "please" and "thank you" are not something you need to say to a computer but its a habit.lol
