Customer Ratings & Reviews

Nice improvement from the previous version, not only on the looks but the quality on the sound. Keep in mind that the speaker is small, don't expect BOSE-like sound, but they serve a nice purpose, and, come on, you can beat the price, they are almost free nowadays.

We love our Echo Dots spread around the house. The missus still has issues remembering it controls most of the lights in the house and does all kinds of cool stuff. I use it constantly though! I could probably afford to learn more of the features though. Phone App does leave a little to be desired, takes forever for it to load up. But I assume that's because its trying to communicate with the Alexa devices in the house.

I actually love this product it was easy and a breeze to setup it took about 5 minuts by the way and I even set it up from my iphone 7 plus it was easy. You can say alexa turn off your lights and you can say alexa play pandora radio.

Super fun to add items quickly to shopping list (and always have the list with me at the store since it's on my phone instead of leaving a paper list at home.) Easily play music, ask Alexa facts, weather... you name it.

Being able to tell Alexa to play my music, turn my lights on and off, add to my shopping list, adjust the temperature of my house, etc. is such a great thing! I really like having the ability to do this with a simple spoken command.

When used in conjunction with Amazon music, Amazon Prime you really get a lot out of this device. It sounds ok for a small room and is fairly user friendly. My daughter keeps asking it to play "Baby Shark" lol. I mainly use it for the weather, questions that I would normally Google on my phone, or listening to music while I work from home. I kind of wish we would have went with the full sized Echo, but still not bad sound out of this speaker.

I recieved this echo dot for free when I purchased a Insginia TV. Glad I got it. Great for checking the weather, asking questions or to listen to music. If you have a prime account, get an echo dot for sure.

I use it primarily for playing music. I revel in the fact that I can be in the kitchen listening while preparing meals. It is a nifty little device that I recently purchased but now I wonder how I could have managed without.

Love this little speaker, I pack it with me everywhere I go. Sounds great for it's size and battery last a couple of days with it being used daily.

I have the second gen echo dots, big echo speaker, and echo show. The speaker in the 3rd gen echo dot destroys all of those. It has a better microphone too so I can actually use it effectively as a home intercom system. The alexa 2nd gen wasn't loud enough for that.

Was originally hesitant to venture into this whole smart home thing but it's pretty cool. Integration to other devices is easier than I thought.

We got the Echo Dot free with the purchase of a ring camera. This is not something we would have purchased, but am happy that we have. Easy to set up and use. Purchased an additional Echo Dot to put on our lower level. Would recommend for anyone.

I chose the echo based upon the reviews of it capability with Alexa controls. It is a simple set up process. You just need to play with it a bit to explore many things that it can do for you. Once you get used to it, you will wonder why you didn’t have one before.

Plays music from my Amazon Music account. Plays iHeart, Spotify, and others as well. The sound is very good for such a small speaker. We use it to create a shopping list too. Great value!!

Super easy to set up and use. Love the new dialing capability where I can dial numbers from my phone by telling Alexa to call a person. Security has been improved drastically. Definitely a good cheap and reliable buy.

Works great my family loves the echo and it does everything that it claimed to

The Alexa smart speaker was a good buy, I own two, use them as our early morning alarm system

I purchased like 10 for everyone I know they are really, I use the white noise for help with sleep, reminders and alarms, only complaint I have is that sometimes she cant hear me but that could be c use I have a raspy voice, other than that nothing negative to day

Love having it listen to me all day, Best Buy is giving me rewards if I write a review. Get this thing when it’s .99 cents amazon always has some kind of deal with this thing don’t pay full price. Thanks for coming to my TED talk

Alexa has become quite the assistant around the house. She is able to play music throughout the house, control our entertainment system and Roomba i7, and turn lights on/off. Working on adding more stuff to her. She also helped us track Santa as he made his rounds.
