    We got two of these for free when I bought something else. I gave one to my wife and she couldn’t get it to work, and it’s not something I want listening to everything that’s said and kept for no telling how long!!

    Didn’t think too much about having one of these and then once I got it and connected some lights to it I begin to utilize it quite well and found out how much that it really does and I’m very glad I purchased it

    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.

    Love the product but when setting up more than one it can be a pain. I got 4 and when i send messages to 1 of them somehow it goes to #1 and the one i sent the message too. In other words #1 gets everyones messages. Still havent figured it out. I have reset them and set them back up made sure their names are right, everything is right but continues to send copies of all messages to 1 specific echo.

    The 3rd generation Echo Dot hits the sweet spot for pricing, performance and visual appeal. Use the Alexa app on your phone to control the device (including any security concerns you might have).
