    Echo dot was GREAT at understanding me at the beginning, but apparently it's IQ plummeted a few months after buying it and now it understands me 50 percent of the time.

    Only complaint is sound quality. Operation instructions —- very minimal— so went on line. But very handy. Bought a rechargeable battery echo plugs into, so unit can be carried from room to room.

    A step back but still worth its price

    Even though it’s speaker has improved, I have the Dot connected to an external speaker for better music playback. It’s great. Why the step back? Well it seems that this girl is hard of hearing. I find myself asking Alexa multiple times before she hears me. My previous Dot didn’t have this problem. I’ve positioned it in different angles and locations but still not having success. Small annoyance for me but others may not feel the same way. Regardless, I still feel this is the best Echo device for those who have external speakers to connect it to (Echo Input to much $$ for what it offers or doesn’t).
