    I needed a physical clock, this came in hand. With a newborn we were able to know what time it was always and it also works as a dim night light which is awesome. I've had the previous dot's and this one is great.

    Great deal for the discounted price I paid on Best Buy. Use it in my computer room. With bluetooth I can use it as an external speaker with my laptop, as well as use it with my SiriusXM subscription.

    We just bought a home so have had an opportunity to embrace the automated world. We bought the plug at the same time and use the dot to turn on and off our family room lamp and TV. One small issue is sometimes it doesn’t pick up my voice.

    This is one of 3 Echo Dots we have in our home including one of the 4th generation. While the digital display on the 4th addition is nice, the 3rd generation provides all the features we enjoy.
