Customers often highlight the superb sound quality and ease of use of the Echo (3rd Gen) Smart Speaker with Alexa. Many appreciate its compact size and straightforward setup process, while some find the bass a bit heavy.

    It’s great. The only thing about the Alexa is that it detect everyone’s voice and if you have multiple devices tied to your amazon account it can be very annoying...Also, you have to have a amazon account to play specific music other than that it’s great!

    I’m having difficulty getting my smart speaker to work correctly. It seems it needs to be a little more user friendly. The set up was easy, but the follow up after the initial set up hasn’t been easy for me. Perhaps I should read the manual.

    Got this home and couldn't wait to hook it up. got it going for three almost 4 weeks. I purchased a new modem and when I went to connect my Echo and would not connect. Went online to Amazon and found out it's a common problem with everyone who purchased it. I have 1st Gens in my house and they haven't failed me ever. took this right back to the store. this needs to go right back to the drawing board for an overhaul.

    It’s a good speaker for the kitchen or bathroom, but not satisfied with it for broadcasting great sounding music in the living room. It’s satisfactory at best.

    I don’t use this as it was for my mom but one thing I noticed for sure when listening to music is there is virtually no bass, just treble and I am not a “bass head”
