Update - somehow it's gotten worse!
I've had problems with this clock since a few weeks after I got it, but Amazon wouldn't let me return it when we finally accepted that it simply would never work right. In the first few weeks, we saw that it lost the signal at least daily and had to be re-paired with the Echo. Amazon assured me that a software update would fix that problem. Since that update, the clock runs through brand new batteries within 3 to 4 days and doesn't even keep the time anymore. It randomly stops, starts, and adjusts to the wrong time. It's basically useless.
