    Actually bought a 3rd generation, but had trouble getting it to connect to my home wifi. Reluctantly, decided to try this 2nd generation one, and it connected right away. I am happy with it. A perfect small version of the full Echo. The speaker is noticeably not as nice, but it is suitable for a smaller space. Really enjoy it.

    Have both this and Google mini and I make more use of the mini than Echo dot. Integrates very will with other smart devices but sound not as powerful and some home theater integration not as flawless as Google mini

    Very impressed with the Echo dot! I was Skeptical at first. Very responsive and great for general knowledge questions and playing music. Speaker is surprisingly clear for being so compact. Worth the money stop reading and buy it! The one con is that anyone can use it, if you have kids they can order things off your amazon account so that could be a bit of a problem.

    These are fun gifts for my kids. I feel Alexa responds better than the Google home. It's fun to be able to control devices with my voice.

    I heard lots about the echo. It wasn’t until I purchased my own that I realized how helpful it is to have around. I love that you can ask it anything and it responds. I love the grocery list feature and the timer feature those are my most used ones besides playing the games. I definitely have recommended it to family and friends.

    I had so much fun with my 1st one that I added another to take advantage of the drop in (intercom) functionality within the house. Works great!!! She doesn't always come back with a good answer, but it's still good.

    I'm surprised by the number of things this little gadget can do. More skills are added daily. Only minutes to setup. Connected to my light bulbs (Lifx) in 20 seconds. No need to write down items to a shopping list. Just say "Alexa, put brown rice on my shopping list". Then you can take a look at your list on the Alexa app or ask Alexa "what's on my shopping list".

    We love our echo dots. We purchased one for each room of the house. It makes life so much smoother by allowing g alarms, timers, reminders, and even drop in calls available all throughout the house. Especially helpful with teenagers! We also have the Phillips hue hooked up to our dots so we can set up routines. We love these gadgets!

    The Echo Dot is a great device to use in the home. I'm able to listen to my all my music, news updates, traffic reports, weather reports and can use it to set cooking timers or connect for recipes. I'm also able to connect to my calendar and can create shopping lists and to do lists. This is a great device and I plan on buying 2 more for my children's room.

    It has trouble deciphering what I am saying occasionally - but otherwise, it works perfect in controlling my lamp/TV. Highly recommended!
