    Great sound quality for such a small device. Alexa works so well with Spotify, Audible, and my Amazon music account. I use it in the kitchen all the time to set multiple timers, check the weather forecast, determine the current time, call family members, etc. So helpful!

    This Dot has improved on its capability of understanding from far away… The sound is also quite clear. overall, if Amazon listening to everything you are saying or doing is not a problem, this is a great product for a great price. Especially for home automation…

    This is perfect for a small to mid-size bedroom. If you need to fill the room with some deep bass, go with the Echo

    A great replacement to keep me company in a new environment, the Echo Dot packs great quality sound given its size, keeps me up to date with news, weather & reminders as well as set up for keeping in touch with family members. In short: I'm happy!

    It makes life easy if you know how to make good use of it. I can control the smart devices in the house. I can play music in multi rooms. I can drop-in and communicate with my kids in their room. I can drop an announcement to all devices. There’s so much more!

    I have an echo dot in every room and this one was added to the garage as I currently have smart lights. It’s easy to set up with the Alexa app.

    I love having an Alexa, has made life so much easier. The set up is easy and there’s so many products that are compatible with it, I will always recommend an Alexa especially when they’re on sale!

    This was my first Amazon-Echo Dot. I already have 2 Google Homes and 3 Google Nests. This seems to work about the same as those. With the Echo though she listens a lot more than the Googles though. I have the Echo in my bedroom and when I first got it, if I turned over in my bed it would light up waiting for me to say something. If I have a question she's real good at almost always having an answer.

    Works really great. The speaker is loud and clear than most other small speakers. You also get a free sengled color bulb valued at $15 for a limited time. So you’re only basically paying $5 for the echo dot.

    Do not know where I would be without my Alexa devices. The echo is great and syncs well with my other devices. I love being able to ask the weather and get a great forcast of how the day will be. I use it all the time to set timers and more than 1 at a time. Set up is very easy to do. You need to download the alexa app to use. I also use it to announce things to every device in the whole house! So handy!

    Got it for my Father-In-Law as he is slowly transitioning to today's technology. Connected everything he has to it, and he loves it. Easy to use and if you already love Amazon, makes things even easier.

    We got this with a tv And really Didn’t think we would use it. However, we installed it in a different room than our other Echo and have enjoyed it. Like most Amazon products it’s quick and easy to set up. Works well though sound quality is only ok
