    No more fumbling at night to turn down an alarm clocks music, or to reach for the alarm clock. This is excellent to have next to the bedside and controlled all via voice activation

    This is a fantastic product that can be used multiple times per day to help make your life easier. Its so easy to use that our three year old has begun asking Alexa questions.

    I was sceptical about Echo at first, but have found that I use it all the time. Great for use in the kitchen when I need to set the timer or to remind me I need to do something

    I have the most fun with this device. It changes the tv channels for me, we play games on it and my 3 year old grandson has the most fun telling Alexa to play certain songs!

    Outstanding product. The only improvement area I can think of is a more intuitive interface with the Alexa App, Also, the ability for Alexa to make app suggestions would be most helpful.

    Can't live without it. Most of my house is automated so I just tell my echo dot to turn on my lights or turn thermostat up to 75 degrees etc. This was a great addition to my automation.

    Alexa is awesome, she sometimes is hard of hearing, especially when I ask her to do something. But I think it is my speach and not her issue.

    It’s great for when you need a second compact Alexa device around your home if the house is too big for the Alexa mics to pick up commands or sound from across the property

    Purchased this little Dot after reading reviews...it disappointed in comparison with the Google Mini. I ended up giving this to my son and he is using the bluetooth features. He seems to be happy with it. The sound was disappointing as well as the responsiveness.

    We have an Echo at home, so I bought the Echo Dot for my wife to use in her classroom at work. She is getting to know more and more about it's capabilities every day, and loves it!

    Echo and dot not there yet

    I was very interested in the Echo and respective echo dot based on potential functionality. While there are some good qualities, the overall voice automation and functionality haven't lived up to the hype yet. Pros: sound quality for music is fantastic, kids enjoy asking Alexa questions, overall family fun. Cons: even after a full month of learning my voice, Alexa continues to frequently answer "I don't know what you are asking", at random times, Alexa will start talking without any prompt, setting up additional controllable items and syncing are not as easy as Amazon would have you believe, and worst experience....every time an amazon echo commercial comes on tv to promote the product, my Alexa replies to the TV commercial as if it were me saying "Alexa...."

    Amazon products are great if you have them all together. Do not work with Google but have tons of useful features on their own. This is a nice way to test it out.
