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. Many appreciate its use as an alarm clock and its integration with smart home devices.

    You definitely need a speaker with this, it does not get loud enough to hear in any other room. I like to use it for music so it helps to have the speaker. Also, you can use the bluetooth to connect to your phone to play apple music.

    Those within a budget, get this echo because it does the same thing as the big echo and its loud enough. you dont need an additional speaker for this to work

    This is a good upgrade. It's voice recognition turns on quicker than the first version. Volume control is now done with buttons instead of twisting the unit.

    So far I mainly use it for music and to help entertain my granddaughter. I plan to do a lot more with it. I got it on sale and think it was worth the cost.

    Man if you have Alexa in the house, adding one of these to the whole system is awesome. Allows you not to have to shout. And easy set up!

    We have an Echo and these dots work great for secondary rooms. Speaker probably worth primary status for music playing. Echos work better for that. But for commands, dots work well. I haven't scratched the surface of what Alexa can do.

    Works just like other Echo which is exactly what I wanted but the speaker doesnt sound as good as larger model. That is fine for the bedroom my Echo Dot is in, but if you want to listen to music with it, Id recommend a different Echo
