    Do not and would not have one of these in my house. I don't rust them to not spy on you. Don't know why they asked me to review it.

    Had the Echo Dot 3rd Gen for about 5 months and now sounds like the speaker is blown. Sound quality is bad. Spoke with Amazon Rep. Factory warranty on this device is only 90 days. Garbage.

    Bought for my kid because she wanted a blue toy speaker and a clock. This was perfect. Bought products because it is supposed to work with Apple Music. It does not.

    Sound leaves a lot to be desired and you get inundated with Alexa emails telling you stuff you don't care to know. Consider opting for the Google product.

    We enjoy the Alexa dot, but it durability is questionable we had to return and exchange due to equipment fault. We will see how long it will last this is a mixed bag.

    I like the decor, cloth, as for sound and responsiveness, to me it's not a improvement over 2nd version, previous version had crisp sound and was more responsive to voice commands.

    Got this free with a purchase and refuse to set it up. I don’t trust the AI and the data points it collects besides every other device we all use.

    First of all I returned this item because it was part of a deal and they screwed up my order so my order ended up being cancelled. So I wasn't charged I return it.

    As an echo it works fine but I obviously bought this one for the digital clock, however, that feature is very dim which makes it not as useful as I was hoping for
