Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is my 3rd Dot in addition to the one Echo I have. The Echo has a better speaker and works nicely in my living room for playing music. In other rooms the Dot is more than enough. The music doesn't sound as good, but it is equal to a clock radio or better. I use one in my bedroom, bathroom and sunroom to control lights and play Pandora if I just want some softer background music. If you want loud, full sound spend the extra on the Echo full size. If you aren't sure you will use a device like this, get the Dot. It's an inexpensive way to give it a try before investing more money.

I have the full size echo and the dot for some reason doesn't responds as good as the echo. Not good for listening to music. Very tinny sound. Ok if you need it to run other items in your house.

I setup home automation for a living and this device works great for voice command. Speaker quality however for music is not the best, so don’t buy if you are going to ask Alexa to play music for you through it. You won’t be happy with the sound.

I've had this for about a month now and I love it. When I ask it to play music it always picks great stations and I can always favor or dislike them if need be. It's also been great to have in the kitchen as I can ask it how many tbs I need etc. I know it can do a lot more than I use it for so I'll have to continue my research but I do get emails on it's capabilities since they know I bought one.

this lil thing is so cool and fascinating so small and can do so much

Love it... these are the wave of the future!!! Alexa can do almost anything! Great price!

I'm a tech junkie and probably spend too much money it. I was lucky enough to get the Amazon Echo when it came out for beta testing years ago. I've been obsessed with it ever since. The dot is the perfect addition to the bedroom. Okra bout great for music but is just fine for ambient sounds when you're going to sleep. She controls the nest, our Philips hue lights and soon she'll wrote with my sonos. Yaaas!

I got this item on sale. Overall, it's a cool little gadget. However, Alexa appears to be very particular about what commands you can use to have it automate smart devices functions in the home.

Purchase for son. Sound quality good. Easy to install and operate.

We have 3 in each of our kids rooms and the absolutely love them. Whether it's playing kid music (which you can set perimeters on) or playing games. It definitely keeps them entertained. They set their own alarms and even ask what the weather will be like to help them decide what to wear. Couldn't be happier with this purchase. Going to purchase 3 more for our office, media room, and guest room.

We bought dots as presents as the are user friendly and simple for kids and those not of the "internet generation" to use to play music, find out weather and more

Love Alexa. The dit is the best because I have use several to connect all my av receivers and speakers in my house so now I have synchronized whole home audio. We

I am liking it so far. It’s full of knowledge. I bought it mainly to get in to having smart home setup. Haven’t tested that feature out yet but I’m sure it’s great

I love Alexa. Does exactly what it is supposed to interacts with all of my smart home devices and will even order my dinner for me. If only she could cook it too!

Echo Dot has a lot of functionality from playing music to quick ordering. Fun and useful.

I've mostly just been using this to listen to music while just telling it to play pandora and iheart radio stations. it works pretty well even with the skip feature in pandora. aside from that i really haven't used it much yet but its handy for music when i'm busy working on something or getting around to go away The voice recognition is pretty good and the little speaker is decent for its size.

Really good with the general stuff you can do with it. My only issue is that I can play a radio station off of it. Well maybe I just haven't figured that out yet.

The echo is OK but it needs more work with commands. I was really impressed with the dot when I first got it, but after a few weeks I found I could get a lot more information with Googles okay google in asking my question. All we really use the Echo dot for now is music and weather. Like I said it's OK for what it can do for us at the $49.00 price tag. The speakers in the Echo Dot are really good for it's size. for the apps not that great but just good enough to keep it

Clean appearance. Sound is more than adequate for 35'x25' room. Easy setup. Life is easier.

So easy to use. It knows my voice and it’s so easy to tell Alexa anything!
