    Alexas get a lot of hype. I use mine to set timers, make grocery lists, and set reminders. My kids use it to make announcements and flatulence noises every five minutes. It is useful to hear a news recap and the weather. You can also call them and they can call a cell phone. When they're on sale, I think they're a good deal.

    I was so excited when I got echo dot , and I'm happy I did , it was a little confusing setting it up on the app cause I'm inpatient person but with a little patient's I got to set it up correctly. I ordered echo connect and got to set it up to the echo dot as well. Now I have 2 echo dots in my home, one in the bathroom. I have important phone calls coming in so if I'm in the shower all I gotta say is alexa answer and wallah! The call is through. A life saver compared to the old ways jumping out the shower slipping and sliding just to answer the phone, Besides that this Alexa gadget is a cool thing to have plays music, tells the weather, and much more.

    Works well, however, I don't really use it much since I have other devices that do the same thing.

    I had two of the previous generation and always thought that the volume was extremely low especially compared to the google home mini, now with the 3rd generation it is just as loud if not a bit louder

    Sounds significantly better than the previous generation and love that I can still control many smart features in my house. The grouping allows me to play music over multiple Echo devices in my house.

    Easily connected three Dots to network throughout the house and was able to use drop in and announcements to the entire family. Love the way music can be played across all devices at once and the sound quality was relatively good for a small little speaker. Would certainly buy more when the time comes.
