I own two Dots and a Tap. I wish I bought 3 dots. They work better, speaker is good enough for most purposes, and can be paired with external speaker.

Alexa is just amazing!! Ever wake up in the middle of the night with an idea? Just call out to Alexa and tell her/it. It’ll remember the idea for you.

It not what I expected. I brought two of then and it is very difficult to try yo sync both to play the same music. Another issue is when you play regular music by connecting with blue tooth you can't sync both to play the same music

I am late buying one and getting into the smart home phenom, but I am so glad I did. I initially bought one for my gf then after a day of using it, decided to pick up one for myself. Plain and simple, it’s just fun to have. Bought accessories to controk the lights in certain rooms and I have to admit...it’s pretty convenient. Haha. For the price, it really delivers a lot!

Got this for the bedroom to sync with the echo in the main house. Great for listening to music. Getting the weather and turning on and off the lamp.

This is for my son while he is away at school. Basically small enough that it is easy to place and packed with all of Alexa's features and benefits.

This is very to easy to set up and has a wired input so you can hook up a speaker which is a nice feature not found on the comparable Google device.

Does a great job with Wink, GE and Philips devices, lights, and thermostats. And all the additional services from Amazon. Well worth the investment.

This was my second echo dot purchased at best buy, so that should tell you how much we liked the first one. From buying the smart plugs to automate where we lack light switches to asking Alexa to set an alarm before bed, the echo dot makes things easier. I highly recommend looking into the home automation aspects and connecting to a Bluetooth speaker for extra pop with your music.

I received this for a discount price with the purchase of a Bose speaker. I found the best use for me was to replace my alarm clock in the bedroom. Don't use it to control any other lights. All and all it's fun to ask questions.

I love how little get powerful it is. I actually use it as a speaker and it’s great. I’m just starting to use Alexa’s skills which are very helpful
