    I got this with my Ring doorbell. I love being able to set reminders for my son so that he leaves for the bus on time. I also really like that I can drop in and talk to my son when he is home and I am still at work. The sound quality is great. It is able to recognize both mine and my son's voice. I enjoy using it and plan to buy more products that I can connect to the echo with.

    What can you say? Echo dots are so useful. I can play my music, listen to Sirius, check the weather, and a thousand other tasks. Best of all, this item was free with a tv purchase. These are simple, well made devices that one can customize with whatever floats your boat. I have a few of them around the house now.

    I love my echo dot. I have one in almost every room I my house. It pairs well with my devices and Alexa can do a lot of things in this tiny device. I love using it in the kitchen. I use it for setting timers, looking up questions and for recipes. I would recommend if you need a smart home device because the echo dot is perfect for my needs.

    Nifty little device, incredibly easy to set up and does a lot of heavy lifting around the house for entertainment. We also use it as an intercom which has saved me an uncountable number of stairs.

    I mostly use the echo dot for an alarm, to ask her the time and weather, and to play music. We also have a plug/outlet that’s controlled by it, which is nice. We use that to operate a light that’s in a corner behind the couch that’s hard to reach. “Alexa, turn on the corner light.” I know there are other functions I’m not using but I’m very happy with the ones I am. Good sound quality.

    Sometimes Alexa is a brat and acts like she can't hear you, but for the most part of works well and is really convenient. Also be cautious though if you have kids. They'll end up on a phone call with your boss while you're in the bathroom. Or something crazy. Said child may also continuously interrupt you while saying "Alexa" so that they can shout it too and ask her something different. It would be better if there was a way to make it only work with specific peoples voices, but overall it is a good product.

    I got this free with the purchase of a Blink XT camera - and I was ready to dismiss it since I have a house full of Echo Dot v2 devices. However, i set this bad boy up and was pleasantly surprised at the higher quality audio it puts out. The device is also about 15% larger than a v1 or v2 Dot, and it uses a different power dongle (a larger wall-wart, non-USB...similar to the type for the Spot).

    Music in the bathroom is much more enjoyable now with this great little device. We get the music, news and weather while we get ready in the morning. Perfect for our needs.

    I have a few of these throughout the house as they were free from BF deals. It is pretty cool to be able to utilize them for day to day things like play music, weather, ask questions, etc. I don't know if I would purchase these on my own as there always some deals out there to get them at either a discount or for free. Not a game changer but pretty cool device overall!

    Well to start, I think it’s a lot of fun! You can play your favorite songs, know what the weather is going to be like before getting out of bed or waiting for it to come on while watching the news, but one of the best things is drop in, to use it as an intercom and not having to get up, so to wrap it up, I think it’s a great product!

    I have to say that "Alexa" is better at recognizing than "Hey, Google Home". However, there is not much that it can do than google home. The device looks nice in the living room and is fun to play songs and stuffs using it. We have connected few smart things (plugs, bulbs and TV) but we normally use google home mini than this one. When google mini does not hear us then Alexa works like a charm.
