Great addition to the home
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I ma very happy with my purchase of this Ech Dot. I like how I can just ask Alexa to play my Sirrus Xm or any of my pod casts. I also like that I can pair my iPad to it and be able to hear and watch the news or any other program from my iPad while I’m in the kitchen. I love how the smart light bulbs pair easily to it and I can turn a light on in any room of the house. The biggest plus that I really love is the away feature. It acts like a security system. Alexa listens for any alarm for a smoke or CO detector or any sounds like breaking glass. She will notify me if something happens. Another plus is if you have multiple Echo dots you can play music through out the house and also announce things like dinner or if you have company that has come.

Helpful around the house.
||Posted .Owned for 6 months when reviewed.I have 2 of these 1 for me and 1 for my daughter. They blend in well on our desks big enough to notice but small enough to go unnoticed at the same time. I use it for time, temperature, alarms, timer, definitions, measurement conversions.....etc. Currently it is connected to our wifi lights and the ring door bell.

The future has arrived
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Great piece of technology, we use it as a communication device in the home between rooms, also for playing music in the home all at once in several rooms. It is a great addition to any home stereo system with its 3.5 mm output, I Have only begun to explore its many uses as in sharing weather and local and national news, sports reports. Entertainment such as trivia, music, jokes.

Q: QuestionCAN I CONNECT MY ECHO DOT TO MT PC?
Asked by jedidon.
- A:Answer Alexa can play music through its own built in speaker or through a 3.5 mini plug cord if a cord is attached to Alexa. When a cord is attached, Alexa can play through another device or speaker that has a 3.5 audio input port. Alexa does not broadcast with Bluetooth, only from its own speakers or an attached cord. A 3.5 mini cord is NOT included with Alexa. Cord must be purchased separately.

Q: QuestionPlug-in? on what? 120v or other source?
Asked by Philippe.
- A:Answer The Echo Dot uses 110 V or 220 V depending on the wall adapter supplied with the Echo. An adapter proper for the country it is sold in is included in the package. An adapter may be used to change to another voltage but the included Power Block is fairly large and might not fit some voltage adapters.. Devices sold in the USA use the included 110 volt adapter by plugging it into a standard wall socket. The Echo has no battery so it must be plugged into a wall socket to work.
