    Works as expected. We use it to check the weather, play music, traffic report….I’m sure there are other things like ordering through Amazon, and such, but for us it’s a great and inexpensive product.

    I absolutely love this item and it works great. A lot of the things I'd have to type into the remote are handled as voice-recognition/responses. Installation was simple.

    It’s the way of the future! Alexa can be setup for numerous tasks. She can turn on/off our TV. She can stream music from Pandora and other music apps. She can turn on/off our lights (purchased a sep smart plug), we even got her programmed to do spelling quizzes for our kids.

    They make these little devices cheap because it will reel you in. I started with this and thoroughly enjoyed my Alexa experience. I use this in conjunction with Philips hue bulbs, smart plugs and other echo devices. I have no complaints. Good quality, response time and sound.

    Not very tech savvy with these type of things, but I like that it sets a great alarm, covers the weather, and even recommends some good music and shows. If you've ever wanted one, it's worth getting and it makes a great addition to my ever growing tech lifestyle.

    I purchased this with the Amazon Music and let me just say this speaker quality is a lot better in the first generation overall it’s pretty much the same thing but the big improvement is the sound not to mention the overall appearance of it is a lot better

    The Amazon Dot is a great device. However, I wanted to use it with my Nest thermostat for in room temperature adjustments. So I had to return this and Best Buy was great about it. I switched to the Google device.

    We purchased this to put at my wifes daycare and the little ones really enjoy telling Alexa what song to play. They don't need to be able to touch it or know how it works, they can just talk to it!!!

    We purchased these to put in our kids’ bedrooms because they love listening to music when they are going to sleep. We also use it as an alarm clock for my oldest. They love asking “Alexa” what the weather is going to be like or for her to play their favorite songs.

    I bought the dot to work with the tv I got. I was overly surprised to find out it worked with our Ring system. I am going to get some smart bulbs for the lights very soon Alexa makes life so easy!!

    I absolutely love my echo dot! I have three already. It’s a life saver. You can ask it anything and even notifies you when you receive an Amazon package (we receive so many!).

    The sound is incredible for teh size of the speaker. As for the "smartness" of Alexa, I have to say there is a long road to call that technology smart.

    Amazon Echo Dot

    I was enjoying the free with purchase of TV, echo dot, one downfall is that I use a hotspot and take it with me and that disconnects the dot. When the hotspot is back at the house it doesn't automatically reconnect :( so it tends to be easier to use my laptop rather than reconnect the internet to the dot.

    This is a great gift for anyone who likes tech and wants info fast and at hand. Alexa works great and is extremely helpful. I still haven't used smart home bulbs or other tech but I plan to in the future and I'll rely on Alexa to give me a hand with everything.
