I got one as a welcome gift for work and my wife ended up smashing it with a hammer because it gave our seven year old unrestricted access to YouTube. She pulled it out of the garbage twice and hid it from us.
Thing is durable, she couldn’t actually crack the casing but broke something inside so it stopped working.
(To be clear we do let our kid watch YouTube supervised after she’s finished lessons, although not very often)

- wincy 3y agoHah, I’ll admit we didn’t punish her further because we thought “wow she’s very resourceful!”
- emddudley 3y agoI have an Echo Show 8 that I wanted to watch YouTube on, but it doesn't work. Which model can access YouTube?
