While some users found the setup a bit challenging and noted occasional issues with Alexa's responsiveness or volume, the positive feedback on its core features outweighs these concerns. Many appreciate its use as an alarm clock and its integration with smart home devices.

    We use our Echo and Dot for a lot around the house. This goes by our bed and is our alarm, morning news brief, bedtime speaker, and general information gadget. I would buy another one.

    I was reading reviews and sometimes it says it doesn’t respond. That is true, I’m just assuming Alexa doesn’t here me though. Had a hard time setting up my Philips hue with this, but a quick call to Philips and it was all figured out. I love Alexa for turning on and off my lights.

    If you're not good with gadgets or technology this is a great way to start. Very simple, easy to get up and running. If you are more advanced, you might feel this is too simple and should be the real Echo. Sound for music and speaking is better on the bigger model.

    Great buy if you have a good Bluetooth speaker to connect then you don't need Echo. Echo dot does the work and it is small. But always require to be connected to power at all times

    ...as in hockey score...come on the device is small and round like a...never mind :) I already own an Alexa Echo and Tap though this is my first Dot. I only wish it was wireless then again would one remember to pick it up and move around the house with it? For $39 on sale, I like it. Got a white one, well actually also got a black one at BB. Normally do black for tech purchases and it looks nice in white. The built in speaker at base of unit 360 degree around believe works good enough that I don't feel the need to connect a wireless Bluetooth speaker to device. Mostly ask about Alexa deals each day when i remember to, news brief. Would recommend the device to others. A friend puts his in a bowel to enhance the sound effect. Like to speak to Alexa without having to Tab the device to interact with device thus buy a Dot. The Tap model requires you...wait for it...to tap the device. Like my Dot and would recommend it n sale at $39

    An Echo in Compact Size

    I bought the Dot for the bedroom due to its compact size and it fits perfectly on the nightstand and performs flawlessly. It picks up the WiFi from a significant distance and has never lost the signal. Every day I learn a new use for it. It has taken the place of an old, large alarm clock. I also have the original Echo and the Tap and this is a perfect complement to those devices. Amazon continues to amaze me! Highly recommend; you can't go wrong with this device, especially for the price, size and capabilities.
