Got it, but my initial impression is not good. Not good at all.

"I'm having trouble connecting to the Internet" (yet my connection is just fine)

"I don't know that city"

"Please consult the help page in the Alexa app"

"I'm having trouble playing that song"

"Please try again later"

(me) "Set volume to 5" (she sets the volume to zero)


Guess this will be my first and last Echo device. At least it was free.
