    it came free with the TV

    Look, it came free with the TV. I'm not a fan of these things, but with the way technology works, your cellphone already grabs information when you talk and filters your data. I gave it away to someone who would use it as opposed to stare at it suspiciously waiting for the AI uprising. She's quite pleased. If you want to ask Alexa to play Baby Shark, this is for you. If you've seen the entire Terminator series more than once, avoid it.

    We had a google home mini and then we got an Echo Dot free with a Best Buy purchase. We like “Alexa” better. Everyone in our family (5 year old included) is easily able to use this device. If you’re trying to decide on one of the “home” devices, I would say buy this one.

    We got this with a tv And really Didn’t think we would use it. However, we installed it in a different room than our other Echo and have enjoyed it. Like most Amazon products it’s quick and easy to set up. Works well though sound quality is only ok

    Amazon's Echo Dot is easy to install and works with Alexa, which adds great value for finding information and playing your favorite music. I put an Echo dot in 3 rooms.

    This is such a practical little device. I have Siri on my iPhone but I don’t always have it on me especially in the kitchen which is where we placed this. I use it for the timer, unit conversions, music, phone calls, etc. It also listens better that Siri on my phone.

    Every day I find more used for the Echo dot. The sound on the 3rd generation is so much better. Really nice. Got one for my 92 year old mother and she even loves it. She is not one to adapt well to computers, cell phones and other electronics, but this she enjoys using.

    This was my first Amazon-Echo Dot. I already have 2 Google Homes and 3 Google Nests. This seems to work about the same as those. With the Echo though she listens a lot more than the Googles though. I have the Echo in my bedroom and when I first got it, if I turned over in my bed it would light up waiting for me to say something. If I have a question she's real good at almost always having an answer.

    This Dot is a nicer style than my others. It does not do anything that the others don't but it is so nice to have Alexa throughout my home. All I do is say her name and she is awake and ready to set a timer, tell a joke, answer a question, turn on / off a light. It is wonderful!

    Freebie

    Disclaimer. This product was a freebie as part of another purchase. That said, I already own several google home and chromecast devices so this is a one-off Amazon device on my network. I'm pretty pleased with the device as a whole and it is similar enough to my other smart speakers that the adaptation wasn't difficult. It seems to perform all the basic functions just fine such as controlling lights, setting alarms, and playing music. It's a nice device overall.

    Love these! We have several in the house and use them constantly to turn lights on and off via special bulbs and plugs. Also use them to play music, make phone calls, check the weather, news, set reminders, alarms, etc. So much you can do!

    We got this as part of a promotional package with the ring video doorbell and we love it! Extremely easy to set up and run everything off of the Alexa app. Ask Alexa anything....she even tells knock knock jokes! They're not the best but good enough for the kids!

    Simple to set up and easy to add on features like lighting for your home. Wasn’t sure about buying this but my son wanted one for his birthday. We now have three in our home. Signed up for amazon music instead of the free trial subscription Best Buy included.

    I thought the set up would deter me from using the Echo Dot. I was amazed and had it working in less than 15 minutes. I love it I can listen to my favorite radio station or get the weather or even get a recipe for cooking something different. Great little product!
