I bought it mostly for stylish appearance, which is exceptional. The sound is good for the money. I could not care less about mobility. I would have paid the same price for, and preferred, a unit without a battery. The metal stand could use a clip to hold it in place. It seems a little loose. A small piece of tape, or for the daring, bending it slightly works. The metal attachment inspired me to construct similar ones for the other Echo Dot and Google Mini devices. I would have bought others for five dollars each to save me the extra work. Naturally, when the unit plays music, you need to speak a little louder to issue commands. A nice piece of work. I really like it.

Great sound for such a small speaker. Deep base. Might have a little crackle at higher volumes but all in all a good attachment. One thing is that at louder volumes the echo has a hard time hearing your commands. I would suggest a getting a remote.

Unit hangs nicely off the kitchen counter keeping Echo Dot handy while keeping it safe. I have not noticed any decline in sound quality. A little brain power needed during assembly but I figured it out.
