    We bought this Alexa for my Mother in Law. She is always looking to learn more about new technology. What better way than an Alexa. She can ask Alexa questions, turn on or off lights with just her voice, and even use it to control her TV via voice with a connected fire stick. Great gift for Maw Maw

    Alexa makes it easy to turn the TV on and off when you can't reach it. Love it for asking questions when I am cooking and need advice on cooking rather than have to looking it up myself. Saves time.

    Easy to set up and is so nice to help with dimming lights and updating on weather when getting ready and a variety of other things. Just something nice to have if you already have Amazon Prime.

    We have an echo-dot downstairs and we have surprisingly enjoyed it. The speaker itself i incredible for such a compact device. We were in the market for an alarm clock for our son's bedroom, however we thought an echo-dot can serve him in well. So far so good, he seems to be enjoying it

    If you want it just for asking Alexa questions or setting a timer, or having it in another room, etc. it can't be beat, but for listening to music, by itself, would be disappointing. Pair it though, with another Echo Dot, and it sounds pretty good.

    I paired it to my Amazon tv on the back porch so I get great sound while watching the tv. This works really well, sorta like a mini sound bar. It also works great for streaming music when not watching the tv.

    This is my third Echo Dot I’ve purchased for my home and placed in strategic locations for my use; bed room, family room and work shop. I use my Dots for playing music, voice controlling my smart lights and small appliances, as well as asking questions

    Wasn't sure about the Echo Dot until we purchased it. The sound is great for such a small speaker. We find ourselves using the Alexa everyday. Morning alarm, joke of the day and items that peak our interest like how fast can lizards run. Useful and fun!!! The grandkids can't get enough.

    The Echo dot 3rd gen is the only one I've had experience with, and this was my second one. This one for my TV room. No problems with it, and from what I understand from friends, this is the best version, even over the 4th generation that just came out.

    Alexa is petty

    I think I got the petty Alexa. I'll ask it something, she'll find it and then when I ask the samething aanother time she'll say she can't find it. I find myself in a one sided argument with her alot. Now I do like the products, just at times Alexa be playing dumb even though she helped you before for the same thing. I did change her name to computer which is fun because whenever we say computer in a conversation on the TV says it, she buts in, lol.

    The Amazon Bluetooth speakers have been great since they debuted with the full size Echo years ago, and the Echo Dot is no different. Very affordable with many great features available through Alexa! Easy to pair and use right away. Awesome product.

    The sound quality is good, but Alexa doesn't always hear well. I find myself having to raise my voice to get a response.
