    Alexa is a must have addition to any home. She is always available with answers to most questions asked. We enjoy pairing with our Bose speaker and listening to Pandora.

    Very simple and easy to use for all ages. Puts out the right amount of sound for a decent size bedroom. You don’t have to raise your voice at all for Alexa to hear you.

    The echo was a black friday purchase. i did not know what I needed it for but I bought it anyways. Boy I am sure glad I did, it is priced lower than the full size speaker but does everything and more that it older sibling does. I use it with my firestick to search the net change channels and make phone call through my tv. I certainly recommend this and future generations of the Echo dot.

    I love this thing. Sometimes, if you have the volume up above 6 or 7, you have to kinda yell at it to get it to hear you. But it understands me about 98% of the time.

    I love the Amazon Echo Dot. I was like why do I need it cause I have Siri but Alexa is my chick on the side that makes my lifestyle cooler. It gives me music, news & turns on my Phillips Hue Lights perfectly . I thought it would be hard to set them up but the app walked be right through the process. I love having the Amazon Echo Dot doing my biddings! Makes me feel like a superhero living like Iron Man/Tony Stark!

    Alexa is fun to play with but to build a useful system would be pretty expensive considering what it does for you. I like being able to ask simple questions and ask it to play my favorite music but to be honest it seems like more of a toy to me.

    I was looking for an Alexa device and not a full speaker, so this fit the bill. I do occasionally use it to play music through Pandora, but only on low volume. Sound quality is about what you would expect from a small inexpensive speaker, not great, but good enough for my purposes. I like controlling my room light using a Wemo switch which was easy to install and link up with the Echo. I also like asking Alexa to tell me my Calendar events and the weather without having to look it up on my phone or computer. Obviously the small size is unobtrusive and looks good on my home office desk.
