I had the original Echo downstairs and wanted something to play nature sounds and other music in the bedroom. This is the perfect little add-on to do so.

After owning both an Echo Dot and a Dot, my main concern is these nifty little gadgets can essentially replace doing homework that demands any thought by your kids. It's both a blessing and a curse. I just think it will be easily abused.

Although the sound falls short of the echo, this was a great addition to a smaller room in the same household. Works great for smaller spaces where you just need a little speaker. Use it while getting ready in the morning for news and weather.

Bought it for the bed room to listen to music while going to sleep. Sound quality is very good and the impact on the decor is minimal.

I had reward points and had a couple of friends using the Echo Dot so I got this one. I use it mainly for listening to music but it answers other questions as well.

We purchased the dot to increase the coverage for Alexa in our home. We have all the function and have it paired to a Samsung R3 speaker for amazing sound.

Best feature is voice controlled internet radio.
Works for asking time, weather, sports schedule and scores .
Keep questions simple.
Requires activation of (free) "skills" for most topics
Perhaps not as good as Google but good for the price.

Got this for my parents to make things easier. They love being able to make shopping lists by speaking. It really helps keep them on track with all the appointments. My dad really loves the music feature as well.

The Echo dot is amazing at voice recognition. It surpassed my expectations. Right now I'm using it as my alarm clock until I find more cool things to do with it ;-)

The Dot does exactly what I would expect it to do. It pairs well with my Bluetooth speaker and works pretty well. Only issues is sometimes you have to speak directly at it in order for it to pickup compared to the full echo which picks up much better.
