    I thought about getting the Echo subwoofer, but chose not to. But the sound is very good without it anyways. Very satisfied with it, our first purchase of Echo, bought two - one for downstairs and one for upstairs.

    Works great with Kasa smart plug devices. The set-up was fairly simple. However, since I also have 2 other Echo dot devices in my home, it seems to get confused with commands. It has gone offline a couple times and I’ve had to reset it. I’m giving it 4/5 for that reason. The speaker on it sounds pretty good. I would definitely recommend as the capabilities are growing with Alexa every day.

    Amazon echo works great. I use it to listen to Amazon music. Alexa can understand what song title or album i want to play. Alexa can turn off a smart light bulb connected to wi fi too. So far i am enjoying it.

    Bought this to tide us over. Sound is good. Looking forward to upgrade our home theater/stereo system soon.. The Echo with its out jack will be an important element of the system. There are more expensive and better sounding Alexa units out there but for my purposes , I'd rather save the money towards the new system.

    My original Echo was starting to get finicky about responding to voice commands so I upgraded to a Gen 3 after seeing how new Echo dots seemed to have better performance. Overall the new Gen 3 has better overall sound (for a small wireless speaker) in my opinion than the original and the listening capability of the device seems better as well. Does what I wanted it to do.

    I have several of the amazon echo dots through out the house but the 3rd gen echo is the best. Better sound, better connection everything is better with this echo. So very pleased with this purchase.

    I have this in a living room/kitchen area and the sound is fabulous. I find I often have to turn it down, then I crank it back up again to listen to music. It is very clear and has excellent sound for music.

    Great sound out of this speaker. We upgraded from an echo dot and this new speaker is far superior in sound quality to the dot. We use it primarily for prime music and for that purpose, it works great.

    Bought this 3rd Gen Echo to replace the one that was knocked off a shelf accidentally. Works great, sleek, slim design adds to the decor of the room that it is in. Great product for the price.

    This is my second Echo. Was so happy the first one I wanted to replace the Dot in my bedroom with an Echo. Sound quality is much better than the original Echo. Got it as a Black Friday deal so even better.

    Bought this Alexa for my daughter; she uses it in her room. named it "Echo" so it doesn't pickup the nearby Alexa in the hallway which is tied into the household group. Great color.

    I really like the Amazon Echo. I’m able to get radio stations that I wasn’t able before on my radio. It was easy to set up. And it Alexa answers most of my questions and she don’t talk back.

    Great and easy to use. We use our echo to watch movies from our phone. It's easy to carry around for traveling entertainment for children. Reads bedtime stories for the kids, which is perfect.

    We bought the Echo 3 Smart speaker as an upgrade and added it to our system. It has an icredible sound for such a small speaker. We use it as our main Echo Speaker in the living room when playing music.
