    I use my echo daily since the day I purchased it. I mostly ask it to play my apple music playlists. And it works 80% of the time. Sometimes it does say there was an error connecting with apple music. But it actually seems to happen less often now. It knows a lot. Answers most of my questions. Overall a great device. I’ll be getting a second one for another room soon.

    Alexa wakes me up every morning to my alarm clock never fails. It’s nice that even if there’s a power outage you don’t lose your alarms. With a plug-in clock it resets everything.

    First Alexa device. People tell me it sounds better than the 2nd gen. Works well with smart plugs for the home. Very easy to use.

    If you are already in the Alexa universe - this is a must have for any room without a device - works well, and, if you can get it on sale like I did, then its an incredible bargain.

    I have had both the second and third generation Echo Dots. The third generation is substantial improvement providing superior sound. Obviously not a high fidelity device, but considering size and cost it is remarkable.

    Love being able to listen to all kinds of music whenever we want by just asking. Surprisingly good sound. Got such a great deal that we bought one for everyone of our grandchildren.

    Love the more robust look of this version of the Echo Dot but somehow the voice sounds clearer on my older version. Music sounds really good through it though.

    As with even the older version, same commands, same responses. The updated version is much nicer looking and has some additional features. When combined with a hub, you have awesome controls of multiple devices and dots.

    I got this as part of my Ring Pro doorbell I received and didn't think I wanted it so gave to my daughter. She absolutely loves it and so is now buying one for her dad for Christmas, so I guess I'm getting one after all.

    Gave this as a gift. Mostly used to turn off light, play music and give a news briefing. Sometimes I think it’s easier to turn the light off like I always have but other than that, it’s been good and convenient. My kids play games and seem to enjoy. This thing can do way more than we have yet to explore since Christmas. I will likely invest to have more in additional rooms.

    Greatest invention, especially for the disabled. I have MS and by using Alexa, it saves me steps and from over stretching to reach the lamps and other outlets that we've installed.

    I love this device. The sound quality is much better than the 2nd generation model. Also, it seems like Amazon has streamlined the setup process, as this device setup much easier than the older Echo devices I have.
