Customer Ratings & Reviews

Had some points I had to use before they expire so looked around the store and didn’t know what I wanted then I thought of Alexa . So I got the echo and I love it . I play music on it . You can play rain falling so you can go to sleep easily. I recommend it .

Love to ask Alexa the time and to set timers. Reminds me of appointments. I can intercom to the second floor when dinner is ready. I also find my phone with this device by asking it where my phone is and it calls it right away. Good sound comes out.

Have multiple throughout the house to help with reminders control Alexa based devices such as lights, switches, and other things. Useful for scheduling and keeping track of things. They also have some amusing Alexa based skills

I love my echo great sound very easy to use very..

This is the 2nd Alexa I've gotten. These things have so much uses. I can even use it to ask whoever's in the kitchen, if we need anything else while I'm at the grocery store. We use it to stream amazon music, as a bluetooth speaker, a phone, audiobook, and to hear the news.

This little Eco dot makes my life really easy once I ask a question it’s answered

This is an excellent little speaker. It is very easy to set up and performs well under adverse conditons.

Great sound and easy setup. Works as well as Gen 2 but looks better (not like a hockey puck, lol) and sounds better. Get one.

Bought this for my 11 year old daughter fit her birthday and she loves it. I love the fact that I can get a hold of her through the Alexa and she can also call my phone from it.

I lost track how many of these I have. It is very useful to use around the house especially when you are unable to use your hands such as when you are doing the dishes and you can make phone calls on it.

These things are great. Surprisingly good sound quality. So much more convenient than using a portable bluetooth speaker that requires device syncing and battery charging to listen to music. This thing is always plugged in and all you have to do is ask Alexa to play a song.

Love the Dot and coming from a Microsoft user, that’s saying something!! I love the ability to set up my daily schedule, my grocery list, and various other tasks. The one fault that I found, was that this item came in several days after my TV was installed, but given the state of the union and the resurgence of the virus, wasn’t totally surprised. Which also says something about the Dot and it being user friendly.

Enjoying this In my living room almost every night to listen to all kinds of music. The sound is not bad for such a small speaker. No more getting up to play some music. I know it can do so much more but I have not ventured in that yet.

I have 4 of these Echo Dot's installed throughout my home and find that they are an excellent, inexpensive solution for supporting voice commands which are used to control a variety of brands' devices. The Dots are small enough to place virtually anywhere, and when purchased on sale, are well worth adding to any home which uses IoT devices (plugs, switches, cameras, blinds, A/V, thermostats, etc.). The Echo supports an excellent range of manufacturers and devices for voice integration. The speaker on the 3rd gen is much nicer too. I don't rely upon these for much audio (i.e. I don't play music through them), but it is still nice to have a quality audio speaker for feedback/responses.

It is okay. I actually prefer the google home mini but this product is actually pretty close. It is useful for many things like controlling your smart home. I got it for free in a promotion but if you must buy an echo, I would recommend the new one. Hey google or ok google is harder to mishear than “Alexa” which sounds like lots of things including being an actual person’s name. I keep this device unplugged to avoid unintentional eaves dropping.

Great little inexpensive way to make my house "smart"er. Easy setup, highly functional--even my 88 year old dad has figured out how to use the Echos. They are a much simpler (and less expensive) manner to connect all your rooms instead of an intercom.

Alexa is always there to help. If you don't own one of these, or a variant, then I would highly recommend it. She'll help you with anything from the weather, to random questions, easily order stuff from amazon through her... You can even play jeopardy with her.

Gifted this to a older friend who has a strong accent. I was quite surprised that Alexa was able to comprehend his voice instructions so easily. The Echo is almost a "companion" for seniors, especially those living alone. They add in to their routine. He texts and emails to family and uses this to assist with spelling.

So easy to use and I can place it anywhere. Worked fine.

I love being able to ask questions about anything or add items to lists without having to press any buttons. The speaker works really well and love playing musing through this while I’m cooking or just hanging out in the living room with just telling it what kind of music I want to hear.
