Customer Ratings & Reviews

We use Alexa every day. It's hard to think about life pre-Alexa. You can get your news, listen to music, and order a pizza (we haven't tried this one yet). Highly recommended.

I depend on Alexa so much now! I want one in every room of my house. She understands me way more than Siri does and the speakers are surprisingly very good for seeming so small.

This is the neatest little gadget & very cheap. love to relax in bed and not have to get up & grad my phone to set my clock or ask Alexa something. Just ask her whatever you need!

gift for my 80 yr old mom. She loves talking to her and asking questions. Easy for her to operate. She is so excited to have a new friend. Keeps her company and keeps her laughing

Christmas, I got one of these for pretty much every household in the family, and the feedback from that was very good. So I decided to treat myself. I haven't got fully into it, yet, but even at this stage I see the Dot as a very useful device. Alexa's language skills are excellent from the start. She even understands me when I don't have my teeth in. The basics - lists, time, weather, alerts, reminders, and the like - are excellent. Delving a bit into the apps (skills in Echo-speak), tweeting, texting, calling, and I assume, somewhere, emailing look like they're going to be useful and save time. I don't listen to a lot of music, but I'm looking forward to being read to. What I've found disappointing so far is that Alexa doesn't seem to know much. I've had "I don't know" to the few questions I've asked. Overall, a very fine and useful machine that I'm looking forward to exploring further.

Bought 2 of these as holiday gifts for two different couples. Both of them mentioned it worked great. Had to be a little tech savvy to get started but otherwise no major problems.

Our daughter loves her Echo Dot! It's funny listening to the questions she asks but Alexa is great with answering her questions. I would definitely recommend this item to friends!

Had to wade through the beginning of not quite knowing how to talk with Alexa and connect with other apps but now that we know, we're buying another one for the back of the house!

I initially started with a single Dot. Then added 2 more. And then 2 full size Echos. Great for in-house intercom using 'drop-in'. Then I found out I could use these to control my home automation system. Bonus! And this week Amazon released multi-room audio. Yes folks, for under $50 an Echo Dot will allow you to have multi-room audio, in sync, through out your house. IMHO the Dot, with it's aud-out, has now surpassed the Echo in terms of usefulness based on the aux-out feature alone. 'Alexa play KIRO 710 on upstairs' will get the Mariners or Seahawks game playing through the first floor of my house. Too cool!

My kids gave this to their brother for his birthday. He was so excited to receive it and has enjoyed using it. It has replaced his radio and alarm clock. Easy to use and set up.

Bought this to make my Sonos Play 5 smarter. After getting an echo my Sonos speaker wasn't getting much use. Paid with the dot I now find myself using my Sonos speaker daily again.

I used this Amazon dot as an intercom with another Amazon Echo... It works great

The speaker is weak when playing music. It would be nice if it was rechargeable.

Pretty neat to use. Real quick to answer. Gets hung up sometimes, but still nice

I ask it about spelling, weather, lots of info. Yes, I know I can do that on phone, but i just ask her. Also hooked to my tv Samsung bt sound bar. Awesome sound.

I didn’t know what all I was getting when I purchased this. It has fun trivia games and will play songs you requested with out the hassle of downloading it.

This product is a helpful device that is easy to use and easy to set up. It syncs with the Internet very quickly and is a handy device getting quick internet information and music.

I bought this a couple of years ago and liked it so much that I bought the newer version a while ago. The 3rd Generation Echo Dot has much better, fuller sound, but everything else is fine. I am now using both.

This was a great addition to our echo family. Our son gets a kick out of controlling the living room lights from his room. He uses the alarm and timer functions religiously.

Great addition to your Alexa based house. Not great for music but they tell you that up front. Easy to setup and allows you to extend voice recognition throughout your home.
