    We purchased these to put in our kids’ bedrooms because they love listening to music when they are going to sleep. We also use it as an alarm clock for my oldest. They love asking “Alexa” what the weather is going to be like or for her to play their favorite songs.

    Alexa is my new best friend

    Having the Echo Dot has become life-changing. Besides checking the daily weather, my favorite use is to listen to the radio all night from another city with crystal clear reception. Alexa has helped score me major points in settling family trivia arguments, and I'm really not sure how I could get along without her constant help and friendship. Unboxing and setup took about 5 minutes, including installation of the phone app. It couldn't have been easier, looks small and sleek on my nightstand, and is powerful enough to be heard clear across the house. It'll be fun to investigate all of the skills that are available.

    I purchased this with the Amazon Music and let me just say this speaker quality is a lot better in the first generation overall it’s pretty much the same thing but the big improvement is the sound not to mention the overall appearance of it is a lot better

    These are a fantastic addition to our home. We have bought these for each bedroom (4), our family room and home office. Excellent sound quality and ties in well with our SIRIUS channel. We purchased the larger tower for our family room.

    This is a great gift for anyone who likes tech and wants info fast and at hand. Alexa works great and is extremely helpful. I still haven't used smart home bulbs or other tech but I plan to in the future and I'll rely on Alexa to give me a hand with everything.

    Great to have. Asking any questions to telling Alexa to add items to grocery list which goes to my phone and keeps them in categories which makes shopping easy. She even turns lights on and off when told

    I got this at a great price during the recent Black Friday sale. This is now my 4th echo dot which I placed it in my son's gaming room. Everything was easy including setup and use. The only drawback which I mentioned in my other review is that Alexa only allows you to link 1 Spotify account. And because of this limitation, you can only play music from one Spotify account at any single point in time. For example, if my wife plays music from the echo dot in the kitchen via Spotify, I cannot play music from Spotify on another echo at a different part of the house. I also cannot play Spotify from my phone without terminating the earlier playback since Spotify only allows you to play at a single source at any given point in time. If Alexa can allow multiple Spotify accounts (which many of us do with the family plan), this will be a 5 star rating! I ended up setting up this echo dot under my son's Alexa account which allows him to link this to his Spotify account. However, this means that this echo dot is in a separate set up as my other echo dots.

    This Echo came with a TV purchase. I am very pleased with it because I can get instant answers to common inquiries without logging into my computer. The vocabulary is extensive and the voice recognition feature is better than I expected.

    Hard to imagine before having an Echo in the house. We have the video version downstairs and wanted one for upstairs. Great addition to ask those quick questions and play your favorite music. The Echo Dot version is at a perfect pricepoint to add to additional rooms.
