    Very happy with purchase. First smart speaker I’ve owned. I listen to music,but the sound is only adequate, which doesn’t bother me. I do use it for shopping lists, alarm, timer, and trivia/questions.

    The Goldilocks of Echo Products

    Amazon has a plethora of Echo devices, but the Dot, especially the 3rd generation is the one that seems 'just right.' It is small enough to be unobtrusive, but the speaker sound is clear and decent. The fact that it has a 3.5mm stereo output means it can be hardwired to things like your TV's sound bar, or via Bluetooth to portable speakers to create a better stereophonic sound. Alexa seems more mature than Google's Assistant; but you are tied to Amazon rather aggressively. Overall, the Echo Dot has performed better for us than the Google Home Mini we already had; especially when things like simple reminders can quickly be setup while the Google requires some tap dancing, and Goggle's is far less reliable on actually performing those reminders.
