    I bought everyone in my family a dot for Christmas gifts this year. Very easy to set-up! I have my Christmas tree and porch lights connected for automation. I even added my work out routine with timers as a custom blueprint. The games are great too! I especially love the drop-in feature that I use to check in with the kids or use as an intercom! Alexa even connects to my firestick and controls my tv functions.

    It is so easy to set up reminders, be it periodic reminders or one off reminder. Sound is much improved from previous echo dot. For web searches, I find google voice to be better.

    good Echo unit. Didn't realize it had a power brick plug (small and unobtrusive) so couldn't use my built in USB plug that we used with the 2nd Gen Dot. Fabric cover is nice, blends in with decor. You won't use this as your main music playing device, but it had good sound, My granddaughter loves listening to the rain sounds app to go to sleep.

    Echo Dot and Alexa help!

    Echo Dot is my way to get to Alexa. Alexa is my go-to when I want to know what the temperature is outside or what the day’s weather will bring. In combination with another device, we use Echo Dot and Alexa to shut off a lamp and turn on a nightlight. Echo Dot and Alexa tell us when an Amazon package has been delivered at the mailbox. We enjoy the convenience and you will, too.

    I waited a long time to get one of these because I wasn't sure how much I would use it. Well, I use it every day. Alexa plays music for me, tells me the outside temperature, sets multiple cooking timers. Works as a bluetooth speaker for my computer. I am sure there are hundreds of other features. I don't even have any of the smart appliances to go with it, but I still love it!

    I got this for free when I purchased a tv. It really surprised me at how far Amazon has come with its AI technology, I’m an apple user. Alexa is very intuitive and I appreciate how user friendly and creative this speaker functions. I have it right at my front door so I can see when I have notifications. It’s very nice.

    To be honest, I just got this out of curiosity to see what it could do. My wife is pretty skeptical about having one in the house with the report of these things recording your conversations. I didn't get this with the intent of doing any home automation. I did also get an Echo Show that I connected to the Ring doorbell to monitor the front door. So, it doesn't get used around here a lot except to check the weather, monitor the Ring doorbell, ask an occasional question, and stream the occasional music. I'm actually impressed with what this thing can do. Maybe I'll find more uses for it.

    We have 4 of these throughout the house. I love having music on and these are great for having something on in the background or asking questions. Set up is easy.

    This product was purchased to replace an earlier model. It has a better overall look and a slightly better sound than before. The performance is about the same as the earlier model. If you are getting a new echo device or want to upgrade the looks, this is a fine model. I would recommend waiting for a sale before purchasing which happens frequently.

    I’ve never used these before, but I got one with a purchase and we all love it! I love being able to have music play by just telling Alexa what I want to listen to, my kids love playing with it by having her tell bad jokes and making gassy noises. I don’t like that it HAS to be plugged in for it to work. It’d be nice to travel with it as a portable speaker.
