    Setup was super easy. Alexa gets most voice commands right and seems to be learning, kind of weird but pretty cool at the same time. I the sound quay is impressive for such a small speaker.

    I bought this for a gift and it was at a great price. There were several in stock and I was not expecting Best Buy to have them in stock.

    It's amazing how something so irrelevant becomes a necessity. We use this daily to play music while cooking, asking about the weather, and to create our grocery list. Love it!

    Very cool. Kids enjoy asking lots of questions and getting answers. Remember if you don’t want them to know what’s in the Amazon cart to disconnect that feature.

    Alexa needs to spit out the marbles from her mouth

    Very dissatisfied with this. The sound is so muffled that even when standing next to it you can't understand anything it says. I have tried adjusting the trebble all the way up and the base all the way down in the settings but nothing changes. To me this us a useless product. Just say "Alexa Spit Out The Marbles In Your Mouth" then say "Alexa Disable Yourself Permanently". I have no such problems with any of my Google speakers. Just say "Hey Google Dig A Hole In The Backyard And Bury Alexa".

    Love my echo dot. Love the ease of setting it up and being able to ask Alexa anything. Does not display time is the only con.

    I really enjoy using the dot to turn music and lights off and on while I am doing things. Usually when my hands are full or too lazy to walk back down stairs to turn lights off.

    It's pretty cool I guess but you have to pay for an extra service fee to use it. It should have a free service

    These little speakers pack a punch. It picks up commands really well even if you are far. You can ask it what's the weather like for today and create alarms.

    Having the clock readout is nice in the bedroom. Sound is very good and it is responsive. Wish it was easier to read at night for older eyes. I think shining through the grill cloth introduces too muck fuzziness or perhaps the led color or size could be improved. All in all very good for the price

    It does a pretty good job, but sometimes it turns on by itself. But it serves its purpose.
