They're perfect hands free kitchen devices. Set a timer. Play Spotify. Turn the TV on. Turn the volume down.

This is where they shine. When my hands are covered in batter and I need to set a timer, voice is awesome. It's also nice when a recipe has step-by-step instructions you can trigger by voice. The intercom functionality is kind of nice too. It's an easy way to get people to come down when dinner is ready.

Yes! We love it for cooking and the broadcast feature. Also, each night I have a family bell that chimes and my kids know that means it's bedtime.
The displays are also good for looking at the cameras/doorbell.
My husband thought they were wholly unnecessary but once we had one or two, he saw their usefulness and we got more. I love being able to move the music from speaker to speaker as I'm cleaning also.
Oh! And turning off lights and locking the door when I'm already in bed!
Okay, I just really love everything about it.
