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.

    I absolutely loved the ease of setting up this device. I am thoroughly enjoying it. I purchased it in white but think the black one would have better matched my decor. However, I was so eager to use it, that color became a non issue. The clarity is great as well.

    The dot makes Alexa an affordable option for more people. The speaker works just fine for communication and books, and it's not bad for quiet music. It's a little picky about placement, and I had to move it around a lot before I found a spot where Alexa could hear me consistently.

    I wanted the Amazon Dot for a while. When I got my Phillip Hue lights I thought it would be a good purchase to go with the lights. It has worked great ever since. Alexa will turn your lights on and off just by asking. Very nice product when you need to know something right away

    Loved been able to connect it to stereo & Bluetooth speakers. However, had to reset it all the time. Blue ring would stay on without response. Checked my internet and it was working. Would ask a question or command and no answer. Then, approx 4 minutes later Alexa would respond. Didn't wanted to exchanged. I just returned it.

    I use this as a timer, alarm, and for the news flash. It is useful to get a news flash every morning and to check my calendar. I loe its ability to play music and the sleep app that you can set a sleep timer for. I enjoy it so much I bought a second one for a family member.

    I did not realize how much I would come to rely on my Dot when I purchased it. Alexa reminds me of each day's appointments, what 's on my shopping list, what's on my "to-do" list, plays relaxation music to go to sleep by, and wakes me up every morning! Wouldn't give "her up!

    This is the second Echo Dot we bought. I like to play specific type of music when I work from home. It is nice to have Alexa find the music for me, skip to the next song or stop the music if I get a phone call. I just say resume and it picks right back up. Plus no annoying ads. There are many other things about the Echo Dot I like but I have mainly been using it for the music.

    I always ask Alexa what the weather is going to be like. Additionally, I asked about my favorite sports team and what the score was the previous night. On occasion I do ask for a fact here or there. Fun toy for the price. Now the talk and text feature proved the price point.

    It's a novelty. It's cool to ask the weather and traffic and stuff but I don't do it on a regular basis. I do like using it for the music because I have it hooked up to a nice Bluetooth speaker. I don't buy stuff with it. You need to first set up Preferences of the stuff you like first on amazon and only if amazon accepts the things you want to buy with your voice. But overall works as advertised.
