Customer Ratings & Reviews

We haven't had any smart home devices up to this point, so this is our first experience with something of this sort. Getting it connected to the home network was very easy. We have integrated it with our Ring home security system, which is also very simple and straight-forward.

Alexa does everything we have asked of her. She keeps constant reminders when I forget. Walking out the door (with alternative attachments) I can ask her to turn the lights off. Without hesitation, they’re off. She has amazing range and never disconnects from the WiFi.

My son bought this as a gift for me as I wouldn’t have bought this for myself. After receiving this one, I’d consider adding them to other rooms in the house as we’ve enjoyed having it the kitchen got music, timers, etc.

I have two 2nd generation Dots and have few if any gripes with them. But when I received my 3rd gen Dot, I was very impressed with the upgrade. Audio has improved 50% imo. Volume and audio quality are much better with this model. I also like the increase in size and the fabric exterior.

Been an Echo Dot user for a long time. Moved past the privacy concerns. Have upgraded all my units to Gen 3. Very noticable improvement in wifi reception, voice recognition and speaker fidelity. Gen 4 has been released. Gen 3's are a great bargain these days.

I never thought I needed an Alexa, but now I can't live without it and even purchased one for my mother and she loves it also, especially for the music.

I cant believe I lived without it, A great addition to smart home. Can link to other brands of smart home devises. Was concerned the sound would be sub-par because newer models advertise upgraded sound, but for its size the sound is better than I expected.

The new echo dot has good sound and a new Look. Good price for the holidays.

Surprising sound quality from a small speaker. Kids enjoy playing trivia games on it and accessing their playlists.

I’m still learning exactly what the Echo Dot is capable of, but so far I like it a lot. The Echo Dot can be paired with the Amazon Firestick for both control of the device and sound. This is great in the bedroom. The sound is good (not amazing, but I don’t think it’s fair to expect amazing sound like you’d get in a Beats Pill or Bose portable speaker). For the price ($25) I’ve purchased several to integrate into our house. Seems to be a bit finicky, which is why I’ve given it 4 stars instead of 5.

We bought about 5 of these for about $20 a pop. Used them to create a housewide speaker system. Also used to create prompts for our kids.

This Echo Dot, was a free gift, as part of another purchase. I didn't even know what it was. Since then, I have found it useful, to check the weather and play music. Gotta be honest; the jokes are horrible. I end up listening to them, to see if they're as bad as I think. They are. Otherwise, the sound quality is good and I'm sure there are tons of other uses for it, that I'm unaware of, at this time. For free, it's great. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bought it, just because, I don't really need it.

This was a free gift when we purchased a TV and we are pleasantly surprised. Good sound, answers our needs in music and hands free. Love it.

Love it for my audio sport and radio stations. Works really great and clear sound quality.

Nice little speaker with clear sound that works excellent

Amazon has figured out how to make setting this up and using it flawless. Easily got it to connect to wifi. It understands speech very well and can quickly get to things you cannot even name, only describe. We have not used smart home features, but see how easy it would be.

The family loves it the kids interact with it daily it has games they tell it to play with them my mother which is 70 talks to it an it follows her directions instantly so Alexa is perfect for all age groups works excellently with the other devices and my Ring cameras

Love my Echo dot. I gift this to anyone who does not have an Alexa. It’s small enough to fit in any corner of a room and the speaker is great for music! This is my alarm clock every morning.

easy to use, my parents love it, they had to call 911 because the had a gas leak and it work great. Now they have music in every room cause we have 5 all together for them. will buy more for us.

Purchased for my 7 year old since he is learning virtually and I work from home but full time I needed an alarm that would be simple for him to set up and thought this would be perfect since it has a visual of the time as well. My 7 years old uses it to set reminders on his assignments due, alarms for when he has to log into a meeting and Alexa even helps with his spelling or simple math from time to time. He also plays music on his breaks and honestly takes advantage of the product a lot more than what I thought he would so we love it! Definitely a great purchase for virtual learning.
