    I received my Echo Dot 3 as a gift when I purchased my 2nd Ring Doorbell 2. I have enjoyed it, especially when I get up in the mornings and want to know the current temperature in Franklin, TN. I also enjoy having it play my selected music. I am planning on purchasing some connectors to use for turning on some of the lights in my house.

    I was using a Echo Dot (2nd Gen) before using this. This is a little bulkier and does not just look beefier, does have a more power speaker. However I do feel that I Echo Dot's reception was somehow was better. For example, I was used to call out command / question from another room to the old Echo dot (2nd Gen) and it will almost always respond. This Echo dot (3rd gen), it a hit or miss. I am using both, and overall likes this a little better than the 2nd gen. Though I would not have paid to upgrade from 2nd gen to 3rd gen.

    Thought I get a second echo dot and now i can cover more rooms and control more devices in my home. I'm lining myself up for a complete security system and i need more help getting things set up. I think this device will be very valuable in getting my house connected.

    A decent sound out of speaker this size. Where this shines is the ability to be tucked out of sight and still hear when it's called to do its work.

    I now have 5 of these around the house. Slowly converting light switches to be controlled. Alexa can control my robot vacuum, play my spotify music, remind me of appointments, keep my shopping list, turn on the Christmas lights and tell me the weather conditions from my weather station. I'm in nerd heaven!

    I received this for free with an Fire tv I purchased. I was so excited because I have been wanting to try an Echo. I am happy with it. It's fun and helps with things like grocery list and quickly looking up information or just playing music when you're doing things around the house.

    You’ll be able to use it to control smart home devices, search for information from the web, play music, and more. But the best thing about it is how inexpensive it is. The design of the speaker is also pretty nice.

    It's nice to be able to ask Alexa about the time, about the weather forecast, to set a timer, and most of all (with a Prime membership) to play music. Hook it up to a larger sound system for richer sound, but the Dot itself has acceptable sound if you just want background music while you're working on something around the house.

    I have come to like the Echo models with screens better. They are more pricey, but they also do more. Some of them also have larger speakers, so the sound quality is better. I have had this model and also the basic Google model. I came to like this better. I do a good bit of smart home control with these and I like the response and also the quality of the voice. For an entry-level device, this does a decent job. I have given some of these to friends as gifts and they and their children have enjoyed them.
