Since purchasing my Amazon Alexa Echo Dot from Best Buy I have found so many ways to save time. Using my Echo Dot for general knowledge questions, weather updates custom to my area, setting a timer, playing Jeopardy, and so much more is available on this smart home device making the Echo Dot user friendly enough for all age groups to enjoy. More than happy with my purchase.

I love my echo dot! It doesn't always hear me especially when the volume is turned up all the way and it playing music but there's a button on it that is equivalent to saying "alexa" so that solves my issue. Otherwise very helpful!

Alexa is like having a child that actually minds you! She’s wonderful at remembering everything, even all the groceries I tell her to add to my list.

I have Alexa set up in different rooms in my house. I decided I needed one in my work-home office. She is great ! I can ask her to spell words as a type, weather, etc. I also have her tied to my Apple Music Account and to my Apple phone so she can even dial calls for me.

No more missed items at the grocery store or any other store everything you tell Alexia you need appears on your phone app. No more alarms except for Alexia's gentle tones at an appointed hour given to her each night before going to bed. No more setting a laundry timer, just say"Alexia remind me to check the dryer in 30 minutes". Stop reading this review and buy the Echo Dot now.

As I integrate more items in the house as part of our smart home network I find it useful to have these around the house to activate devices for me. Even though the speaker isn't as robust as the full fledged Echo, it still gets the job done when I have it play music to put our daughter to sleep. I like the idea of being able to upgrade the sound quality by plugging in a speaker to it too.

I bought the Echo Dot to supplement my full size Echo. The sound quality is not as good, but that is to be expected with a smaller speaker. It is great for getting information and controlling smart plugs and other smart devices.

Bought this for my uncle so he could make calls if he needed help.. He spends more time listening to music and playing voice games then making calls.
