Any downside to a refurbished Alexa?

We’re surprised at how much we’re enjoying our Amazon Alexa. We have it in our main den, and my wife would like to have another one for the kitchen.

I see they sell refurbished Alexas for a $50 discount, full warranty. Is there any downside to a refurb Alexa? I’d rather pay an extra $50 if there are some negative to it.

Experiences/downsides? Thanks.

Refurbs are almost always as good, if not better than new. They’ve been given an extra once-over by a qualified tech. I’d say go for it.

We bought a refurbished Dot when they were on sale for $35 and have been quite surprised at how useful it’s turned out to be. I likewise entreat you to, as they say, go for it!

Cool. No reason to pay $50 more than we have to.
