Customer Ratings & Reviews

I know it’s a still in it’s infantcy, but Alexa has a hard time understanding anything at time, and she says I don’t know that one over 60 percent of the time. The upside though, she works well with my smarthome

I love this thing. I do have to turn the WIFI off every night to keep from getting migraines so having more WIFI electronics isn't necessarily a good thing. I do love it though.

I just purchased my 6th Echo. I have two 2nd Generation Echo's in my home and I purchased 4 as gifts. Most recently purchased a 3rd Generation for my elderly mom. She absolutely fell in love with Alexa when she stayed with me for almost a year. She loves listening to talk radio shows from Boston (now living in PA) and is able to through Alexa. I will be getting a third one for my home.

Easy set up. Have had loads of fun getting Alexa to play music and answer questions.

I am an apple fan boy, but since Alexa decided to speak the truth and tell the world that the sonics were stolen from Seattle. I might have to reconsider the hometown tech giant.

Have original Alexis...first generation and enjoy it , wanted second for upstairs. Found this is equal to first at much more reasonable price. Can get weather music, give commends for lights and more from bedroom at night or in AM. Very convenient and a bit magical. Would recommend to anyone as first venture into Alexis or additional . No problem setting up on home network and functional in moments....

I like the fact that the echo dot is small and you don't even really know it is there until you use it. Has some cool add-ons that enhance the functionality tremendously.

I now have both the Amazon Echo and Echo Dot - one on the lower level and the other upstairs. The quality of the Dot speaker is much better than I expected when compared with the Echo. The convenience of having Alexa and the Amazon features throughout the house is great, especially when you can have the Dot wake you up or add to your grocery list when you really don't want to go back downstairs. In my view, it's a really good value!

You got to get it and use it ! this is small but packs almost as much push as it's larger version Echo.

My introduction to smart home technology was my Amazon Echo. Later that year I received my first dot. The Dot I connected to a set of Logitech speakers that I had for my PC and the result was reasonably decent sound. Then with an update we could group devices. Now I've added a couple more dots to the house, connected to stereo's already in place and now I can stream Pandora or tune-in throughout the whole house. Awesome!!

Great little gadget. Limitations however lie however since really we only use it for music and games. Have bought one thing off of ebay but this is no Siri by any stretch of the imagination. Paired this thing with a bose bluetooth speaker and the music sounds great!

Works effortlessly with my existing Alexa echo. Mainly used as an intercom in my son's room so we don't have to tell crib down stairs, lol. But it also functions independently.

Works excellent, easy to connect, controls my lights and easily plays music via voice control.

I love the Echo Dot, this is the second one I own. Alexa is great to have around and integrates the Philips Hue. Ask Alexa to turn on the light and voila... the lights are on.

I am happy to say the Amazon Echo Dot exceeded my expectations. As an avid music listener, the dot has made doing so a lot easier by way of streaming from my iPhone 6 to the Dot, which I have connected to my speakers via a 3.5mm audio cable. On top of that wonderful feature, I can also use voice commands for my Smart Home equipment which includes Philips lights, GE switches and a Wink hub as well as an ecobee3. I will likely buy 3-4 more.

Still learning the purpose for Alexia. But have gotten lots of entertainment from this device. Once it is connected to more features I can see where this device would be handy.

I bought my original echo dot when it first came out. Once they added the intercom/ drop in feature, i had to get another one. Now i don't have to yell downstairs just drop in.

This was a great purchase IF you have a nice bluetooth speaker to hook it up to. I actually had an extra Samsung bluetooth speaker and all the audio goes through that. Alexa now controls my phillips hue lights. Kids love asking her questions, getting the weather, news and even reading to me! Not something that is necessary, but makes you feel like you are living in the future. Get this adorable little puck and never be lonely again, lol.

I bought a few of these as Christmas presents. It is a gift that I can add on to for birthday presents, etc. with lighting, plugs and other smart home things. I absolutely love my Amazon Echo Alexa, so I also bought an extra Echo Dot for my bedroom, as I already have one for my kitchen. I Bluetooth'ed a speaker I had to the one in the kitchen so that I can listen to music in there while preparing food,etc. and can have it as loud as I want.

The Echo dot is great if you want the basic functions of Alexa without being too noticeable in your overall decor of the room you install it in like the regular Echo. Still works great as an audio streaming source if connected to a stereo system or some decent wireless speakers like the Definitive W9 speakers which sounds way better than the output of the regular Echo. Any wireless speaker still better than the sound from the regular Echo.
