I am puzzled... are they useful?

  Good to set reminders and play, occasionally, some music. After all Echo is a good bluetooth speaker at the basic level. I would be curious as well how other people would put echo into use though.

    In our house: playing music on Spotify and setting alarms when cooking.

      It does unit conversions which is great when splitting or multiplying a recipe.

  Hands-free is often useful while wrestling toddlers. PS. Favorite kids CD: https://www.amazon.com/Best-Laurie-Berkner-Band/dp/B003KNDMFY https://www.amazon.com/Best-Laurie-Berkner-Band/dp/B003KNDMF... - cheaper to buy the CD for the car while unlocking the Echo-playable cloud MP3 edition - favorite tracks have been dubbed "Bumblebee" (1) and "Rawr" (4) - recorded a video on the iPad of myself loudly saying "Alexa, play We are the Dinosaurs" which my kid loves to re-use

  I don't know if I'd call it usefull but get 4 or 5 people playing DJ while drinking and it can be amusing for a while.

    Or Twitch streamers trolling their listeners!

  Have a Dot in the kitchen is great. It's multiple egg timers, a unit conversion calculator, a radio, a weather station, and all hand/eye free operation.
