If you plan on using your smart speaker to stream music as well, a high-end Echo is definitely the way to go. If you only want access to Alexa though, we definitely recommend getting the Eufy Genie Smart Speaker with Amazon Alexa by Anker instead. It’s basically an Echo Dot but it costs $19.99 instead of $50, so you can put Alexa in every room of your house and save tons of money doing it.

Use Genie to control all Alexa-compatible Eufy smart products, such as RoboVac 11c and Lumos LED Smart Bulbs, in addition to other brands that work with Alexa. If you have more than one Eufy Genie or Amazon Echo in your home, Spatial Perception Technology intelligently selects the Eufy Genie or Amazon Echo closest to you to answer your request.
