    I am enjoying having the echo dot in my home, it's the start of making my home smart, I was given a smart bulb with my purchase of the dot but haven't tried it yet. As for the dot I really like what I can do with it and i will be making my house smarter.

    Al the good stuff in a small package. I have multiple echo dots in my house and love the convenience and features they offer. I am gradually adding more automation in my house and love the ease of use. I love the ease of integrating devices into the Alexa system.

    Works great for home and office use. This one I bought for my client but I've had one for over 2 years and works perfectly fine. So many great features but I'm basic and only use it as an alarm to wake up and occasional reminders/timers. I buy these all the time for housewarming/client gifts.

    The product works perfectly. It's in the same room as my Amazon Firestick and unfortunately every time I say Alexa, both go on. I have to mute the echo in order for this to not happen. Wish there was a way to change the code on the echo to something else other than Alexa.

    Got a couple of echo shows and I got this for my teenage son. He loves it because he really did not care for having a screen, he rather have just the speaker/smart device. I am slowly getting the household electronics all “smart” integrated and Amazon has got a real winner with the echo.

    I practically do everything with the Amazon Echo Dot. We have one in the bedroom and another in the living room. I utilize her to set timers when cooking and create shopping lists. Makes life a bit easier. I don’t know why I didn’t buy one before. Worth every penny and would recommend it.

    Echo products are very easy to setup. Once you setup the first one (5 minutes) each added device takes less than 2. Having setup nearly 50 echo devices I can confidently say it is the easiest setup process. As a Google user this makes me consider switching to Alexa.

    I bought this for my mom who is technology challenged. I love it it was easy to set up and easy to teach her how to use it. My only regret is that I didn’t purchase more of them while they were on sale. But I am watching closely to see when they will go back on sale. Then I will buy a few more.

    got these over the holidays to try out and love it. didn't see the use for these initially but now that I own a few in the house and have integrated more smart home capabilities I absolutely love this echo dot. Alexa is leaps and bounds ahead of Siri, by far the best smart speaker.

    I really love my echo dot (3rd Gen). I now have two (2) of them and a echo show and appreciate that they make my life easier. I use them to control my smart devices (lights switches/dimmers, bulbs, sockets, TV & soundbar, music, thermostat, security cameras and security system). Importantly too, I use for sleep sounds when am having trouble falling asleep. Speaker sound quality is average though. Great product - I would recommend to anyone

    This was a free gift when I bought a TV that I thought I wouldn't even use. I was wrong to assume it would be complicated. I like it so much, I'm going to order another one for my home. (This one was in a VRBO home)

    This was an added bonus with my tv purchase and I'm happy I took advantage of this offer. Once you figure out the technical side of linking it to all of your compatible devices, it's a life changer. Small but mighty sound.

    I bought this for my godmother for Christmas. She absolutely loves it! She can listen to all of her favorite songs just by asking the device to play it. She gets the name wrong most of the time but for the most part she has no problems getting it to play.

    My first echo ever. Actually very useful, specifically with me a new mom I have hundred things to do during the day, it’s great being able to yell at from the laundry room to turn off the lights or play some music on Spotify.
