    We had the original first generation dot and liked it fine. This one looks nicer and seems like a great upgrade. It’s got great sound for such a small speaker. Really packs a punch! We’ve paired it with other dots to have house “surround sound.” Great gift. Very happy!

    Echo dot is a tremendous value and The small size make this very convenient for any space. Speaker is ok, but this tiny unit is is capable of all the same features as the regular size Amazon echo. I have 5 of these in each room in the house. Love it!

    We purchased this when it was on sale a few months back, and it works very good. It is constantly "alert" and ready for commands. We use it mostly to communicate from one room at one end of the house to another, so we don't have to yell at each other. It works great.

    Like most people I have these all over my house. The newest 3rd generation update improves the speakers both with hardware and by their placement. It does make it a bit more difficult to wall or ceiling mount them though so if that's what you need to do, consider opting for the 1st or 2nd generation versions where the speaker was not on the sides. But if you are just placing it on a desk or table, this one is ideal.

    Received this Echo Dot free with the purchase of a Fire TV. It is very convenient to listen to Christmas music, a Bucks or Badgers game, check on the weather or as others have enjoyed to just ask interesting questions. At times need to repeat ourselves as Alexa doesn't always get our requests correct, but overall a fun little speaker.

    When I feel like listening to music all I have to do is ask Alexa to play my favorites for me. Also very convenient in turning off my LED lights from a distance. Loved this so much I bought 3 more for my family members!

    Love that this Echo Dot will respond to ANY voice, though you can still add your own to make some responses quicker perhaps...though we've never had any problems with "Alexa" understanding anyone's voice commands in my home.

    This is our third Echo Dot. Will use this one to monitor our ring doorbell that we purchased at the same time. We listen to a lot of Pandora with this Dot too. I have also recently purchased a smart plug to use so this.can turn on and off my lights when I ask it to .

    We’ve never owned a device like this. It’s great in the kitchen! Play music while I cook, have Alexa set multiple timers and my kids who never get to go anywhere due to Covid played games with her for over an hour last night!

    perfect preferably I think that this product is better than the echo show for the manual one period this product it can hear you and it's very distinct and your request that you want from Alexa is very reliable and it is fast.

    Really great! I can operate my Nest thermostat by simply asking it to turn it up or down, or off. Ask how hot or cold it is before going out the door. I actually have two of them. It actually came free with my Ring doorbell.

    The new Echo Dot sounds much better than the previous generation. The tone is more deeper and rich. When listening to music you also get better treble. I use these devices through my home for whole home audio and it’s works fantastic if used in a small room or office.
