    Ok I like music, but the hassle of pairing my phone to the nearest Bluetooth speaker while I’m folding laundry or clearing dishes takes an extra hand. This little beast was a snap to hook up, and all I have to do is ask Alexa to play Hootie and the Blowfish, or what does the weather look like today or even play my audible books, no hands required. I can rock out, listen to The NY Times, check the weather, on the go with no hands required. I’m in love hearing my tunes with no effort.

    I got one for my daughter but everyone loved this cool smart speaker that I ended up buying one for the whole family including myself. Just use simple word commands and you can listen to music, turn off your smart light bulbs and even program the alarm to go off. Also it was on sale at a really good price. Everyone is enjoying it.!

    I didn't realize how helpful echo/Alexa would be specially now that I have my father living with me and keeping on eye (so to speak) on him. It's very clear and loud unlike other speakers, it's the perfect size and weight.

    Considering google mini

    So I have two google mini and an echo dot. I think the microphone sensitivity and responsiveness of the dot is much better. Google, even on the highest sensitivity setting often takes saying things twice. I like saying alexa over ok google or hey google too, its faster. The sound quality is pretty comparable. I do like the dot light right as well. The build feels nice. I have noticed that some commands alexa struggles wtih. The harmony remote service works great with google, but not with alexa. Also, alexa struggles with opening garage commands. Alexa is faster on turning on lights and switches. So its a toss-up. I do like the amazon integration and the setup was faster in the amazon app. I do like the alexa app better than google. So there is no wrong answer and really not a clear winner. They both have their benefits.

    I replaced a second gen Echo dot. I couldn't be happier. The third generation sounds much better and was easier to set up.

    This item came free with my tv purchase and seems easier to use than Google. I feel the echo is compatible with more products than the Google.
