Customer Ratings & Reviews

For a long time I didn't want to use any of these devices in my home. However, I decided to go ahead when they were on sale. Now that I have it, I really do like it. It is so much easier to find out the weather by asking Alexa than it is to go to the weather app on my phone. It is really much easier to find out answers to many other questions and when I want to hear a specific song or many it is absolutely perfect.

Works as expected, easy to setup and competitively priced (Amazon). Will reccomend to friends and family.

Love my Alexa! We never owned one. So we bought this smaller one to try her out! The children and us adults love her. There’s so much more to learn yet. To pair her to get started wasn’t too complicated, but for some reason I needed to update the software first. I thought that was odd. And since I use an iPhone, I needed to change the Alexa’s automatic setting of music, otherwise it tries to play from other apps. We got an amazing deal on Black Friday.

This is an Amazon devise. I use Amazon?Alexa more than I use Google and I am not an apple user in most instances. I think this works perfectly for what it is and can be expected from a small device. We picked this particular one up for our cottage/cabin and its been performing flawlessly up there. Speaker works well, microphone hears us from a room or two away (open floor plan) and the color is a nice charcoal. We are very pleased with this unit for the money.

Nice sound and easy to install. I loved it. Not to loud

Easy to use my Amazon Echo. Was easy to set up. Can answer almost any question and plays your favorite music.

Great for gifting your family members! I gifted one of many of these I bought to my cousin and her son connected their Smart TV with it. Her mother, his grandmother is cooking and her sister came in and said, "Alexa turn off tv" and her sister was so confused thinking someone was also in the house. Great way to show off you are a tech guru ;)

Love this updated version! Love the design and the sound quality is fantastic for such a small speaker!

This is a nice upgrade from the 2nd generation echo dot. It’s a little bigger and it’s louder. It’s nice looking as well.

Echo dots are great gifts and great little devices. I have tried the 3rd and the 4th Gen dots. These are still a good deal (especially on sale or as a bonus gift for a Best Buy or AMZ purchase. The kids love asking "Alexa" random questions, and sometimes her responses are entertaining for adults. I more appreciate using these as little music devices in random places in the house.

I use it with ring door bell and it’s very useful. I also use it as alarm

Im not going to lie here, I bought this, and I barely use it. I use it as a glorified speaker for Spotify. The sound quality is good but there's very little bass. Alex understands me most of the time, but with every smart device it has its moments where it doesn't understand properly. I do take advantage of the skills when I remember though, those tend to be useful. The price I got it at was great, the normal price isn't worth it though. I don't think I would recommend this until its on sale again and even then there might be something better to spend your money on.

Great sounding small smart speaker. Works amazing when paired with alexa smart plugs

This is great for working with my wifi plug and my lamp. Also helps me set alarms and listen to music.

Purchased to put in the office after buying the 1st generation. Does not take up much room and quality is very good

Got this with my ring door bell and my kids absolutely love it. Easy to set up and is super clear.

Love the echo dot! Small, yet packs a lot of sound and doesn’t take up much space. Recommend!

Such a great price for something we love to use in our art room for music.

I've had the 2nd gen dot for a while in my home and just replaced it with two new 3rd gen dots. one in the living room and one in the bedroom. The device itself is more aesthetically pleasing and the speaker on this one is way better but my only complaint I suppose is that they have seemed to be a lot more prone to not working right than the last one I had. At times, she may not hear the wake word, other times shes way to sensitive. The follow-up command seems buggy, sometimes working and at other times not. Things she used to be able to control she cannot "communicate with" Keep in mind that these issues seem sporadic, sometimes non-existent and then giving trouble the next. These things could potentially be fixed in future updates though. Just a comparison of mine from my 2nd gen to my new 3rd gens.

Received this free for buying a Ring Doorbell. Excellent sound and it is bigger than previous Echos
