    This Alexa generation is the best yet! I also have the 4th Generation that was gifted to me and it is not as good as the 3rd generation. The voice-enable function in the 3rd Gen Alexa is just great, it can listen to your soft voice commands.

    I bought one for my daughter and one for my wife. I am amazed at the capability of this little unit. My daughter and wife daily show me some new feature. I really don't know anything about this thing, but I can tell you, it is easy and truly enjoyable. My family loves it.

    I Got three of these on sale, completely aware of the fact that there is a more recent model available. I used these to help in turning my apartment into a smart apartment—placing them in my bathroom, closet, and bedroom (I already had ones in my kitchen and living room). Set up was extremely easy. They sync’d together automatically (everywhere group). Now things like playing music throughout the apartment or just having Alexa change the music while I’m showering are super nice. Was a pretty inexpensive way to upgrade my space. Pretty good deal, in my opinion.

    I had an Amazon Echo Dot already and love it so much I wanted another. So many uses that I don’t know how I did without it. From the news & weather to music, meditation and making lists I can access on my phone, Alexa makes things so much easier.

    I love Alexa! She keeps me on track with timers and alarms. Now I just was washer timer and she has memorized the timing. This is my second that I added. I recently learned to play music throughout the house so it added even more to my excitement.

    The echo dot 3rd generation is great because for such a small speaker it sounds clear and loud, much better than older models, and the options to grow with it are huge. Highly recommend getting some for your house, especially when Best Buy has promotions on these.

    I bought this because I have the regular echo in my kitchen and I use it for almost everything. I bought this one because I needed it for my bedroom and it was perfect for it. I definitely recommend this to any first timers who are interested in buying an echo.

    The 3rd Gen sounds way better than the last Gen. Fuller sound. Slightly bigger though. The cloth exterior looks better.
