    Got this one to give as a gift. The sound quality is decent, and although not as good as the standard Echo (which is expected given the price point), it is an improvement over the previous generation Dots. And it performs all the Alexa skills. The recipient of this gift is quite happy with it.

    It is great specially playing music I like just at a snap. I haven’t set it up all with it doing all the smart home things, but I am using it for my home security like opening garage door and unlock front door and set my alarm on..etc. It is really very nice what this small speaker can do.

    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.

    These are great to have in the house. We use a lot of smart lighting. And it does great controlling smart home devices. And being deep in the Amazon ecosystem, it does great with our Fire Tv’s. And we also love being able to play music everywhere all at once.

    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.

    Great to have Alexa in a smaller device than the original echos. Easy network integration. Very convent for setting alarms, reminders, etc. The sound quality is good as well for music streaming.

    Our First Alexa Device is a Hit !

    Never had any of the old versions but read the sound wasn’t as good as this 3rd generation. I can testify this one is loud and clear ! I can be in my bedroom and speak to Alexa in the kitchen 1-2 rooms away and she can still hear me. You can ask her to raise her volume or lower it without going to the dot itself so that’s a plus. We have set up our lights with it and it works perfect, very easy. Alexa responds to anyone’s voice so that could be a plus or minus if others start commanding her to do things. The great thing is both my husband and can add Alexa to the app on our separate phones ( one iPhone and one Android ) and we both have access to make changes so that’s a bonus.

    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)

    I love that I can ask Alexa “almost” anything. It can control all our lamps and be set up on timers. It tells us which door is opened thru the ring alarm system. Plays music on command. So many great features just by asking.

    I'm quite late to the tech party, but I find this Amazon Echo Dot to be an amazing little gadget for a great price. Takes the place of so many things, a clock, a radio, a dictionary, a complete set of encyclopedias, a cookbook, and it will even tell me a joke!

    Alexa is my new best friend. I wasn’t in the market for an echo and I didn’t really think I would even like it but it came free with the tv I purchased. It was easy to set up and the more I learn about what it can do, the more I love it.

    This makes my life convenient! The ability to have “Alexa” turn on the lights, (with proper plugs) set a timer, just about anything! I can’t believe how much you use it until you have one!

    The price was fantastic. I received one as a Christmas gift and love it. I have bought several to give to friends and family. It is so easy to set up and use. You just download app your phone, plug it in to an electrical outlet and it’s ready to go.

    I am enjoying my new Dot and learning all it's capabilities. I bought smart plugs so I can control some of my lamps by voice. I like being able to give it many verbal commands that I would previously have typed into my phone or laptop. Makes life easier, for sure! Happy with my purchase.

    Alexa can do almost anything for todays homeowner with the proper additional peripherals of course. The concept of a smart home voice assistant was available to only the rich and famous not that many years ago. Today everyone can control their environment and entertainment with voice commands.
