    I have been using the Amazon Echo ecosystem for my smart home automation since the 1st Generation Echo. Since then, this is my third Echo Dot that I have added to my lighting automation system. I love the capability that an Echo Dot in each room brings to the Home Automation.

    I have a 2nd generation that I had no problems with. Ever since I got the 3rd generation it’s been nothing but problems. Since I put this in my home all of my devices will not connect to the internet with the exception of the 3rd generation DOT. I also noticed that the DOT was listening even when the “wake” word wasn’t being used I don’t trust it and for now neither the 2nd or 3rd generation are heing used in my home....not sure that I will use them again. I more than likely will return them both

    I enjoy listening to the music from it. But I am very disappointed the it does not come with any type of instruction manual. I do not know the correct terms to get the full use out of it that I desire. Would like better information given along with it to help me find out how to use it fully better. It also said I had free 90 days to listen to sirius and it did not last that long.

    We got this when we bought a TV as an extra for the TV we did not buy it and we have never used it because we don’t want big brother listening. :)

    It works. But I have a soft view and I have to talk loud. The echo-view works much better. For the price... you get what you pay for.

    My household is not a fan of these types of products for security/privacy reasons, but it came free with a purchase we made. We gave it a try just to see how it worked. It can be handy, but we don't leave it plugged in unless we're using it!

    Love this little guy. We have it hanging from a holder that allows us to have it plugged in on the wall in the bathroom, awesome for music and podcasts. I love the color, it matches everything and looks so sleek.
