Great purchase for childrens room
We love this! My daughter uses it daily to listen to stories, audiobooks, music, etc. It is responsive to her little voice, the sound quality is great for the price. The size is small enough to fit on her nightstand. I have no concerns about security since the app makes it easy for me to install controls and monitor activity. Alexa is responsive and fun to have around.

Finally got Amazon Music to work.
I purchased this for my pre-teen kids room (10/12). They already had a regular alexa but I had limited control over the content they had access to. They mostly use it for amazon music and asking random questions. When I purchased this, I didnt realize that so many people has issues getting Amazon music to play. After trying for hours, I was finally able to enable amazon music on my kids echo. Hopefully this helps someone. I followed all of the steps on granting access in the parent app and the amazon music app. (I did change the age to 13+ in the parent app.) Then I logged into Amazon Music on my kids profile on their fire tablet. There I was able to see their profile and manage their playlist/music/etc. When I asked Alexa to play their playlist it finally did. Its not the best set up, but at least they can play their playlists and manage their music through the app on their tablet. I wish it was more user friendly as far as amazon music goes, but it will work for now.
