    If she had a body, she’d be my best friend. No more google search, no more Bluetooth on my phone when I’m home. I can finally put my phone away, and let me best friend carry me thru a great night. Thanks Alexa!

    Like the big echo but smaller, worse speaker, Alexa does things. It's okay and works where you don't need the full size

    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

    Love my dot! I Was working in my office when my cable company company went down. Our cable company went down and I had no access to a search engine on my computer. I used the dot to finishing inquiring about what I was searching for.

    This echo works well enough, the drawback is that it respond to queries when not prompted. This makes it too invasive.

    Excellent product for home automation. We use it to control lights, temperature (HVAC) and garage door opener. Combined with SmartThings, it does everything we need it to do.
