    I got this for free with the purchase of my tv so I wasn't expecting anything from it. Little did I know it would become essential to my living. I now have a ton of smart devices that I control with this little echo. I absolutely adore the little beast!

    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.

    This device does a much better job at understanding commands than the Google equivalent (home mini). It links well with our Audible and Music apps. For the price and ease of setup make this one of the better purchases I've made.

    Finally got one of these and now we have 4! They are super fun and we use them for music, weather, trivia and timers! I got them for gifts for all of teenagers friends. They aren’t the newest model but are perfect for us!

    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 speaker works just fine, has great sound and is a very discreet device. Even though there are newer versions, this one is a good one to have around.

    This is a great secondary dot that we use on the lower level. Alexa announces our ring entryway system and this dot makes it easy to hear her in rooms that are farther from the main unit. Excellent addition to our Ring security system.

    Pretty convenient. Bought some plugs to go with it and turned my home into a smart home. Especially when I’m laying in bed all comfortable and whatnot and I forgot to turn off the light.. I just tell my Alexa to turn it on

    This is my first Echo (Alexa device) and I was extremely impressed at the ease of set up. The unit's responsiveness and ability to accurately identify the person speaking to it as well as the intuitiveness far exceeded expectation.

    I have purchased three Echo Dots on sale and use the "everywhere" speaker group feature to listen to music throughout the house. The sound quality is good enough for everyday listening - I have also connected a couple of Bose speakers using Echo input devices.

    For a small device, the sound is great. Got rid of my alarm clock radio as Echo is now used to wake me to music. Lots of possibilities to use including control of lights, temperature, etc. Alexa’s jokes need work though. LOL Ps I bought a few for friends too!

    I use Echo dots in my apartment and it has made simple things like setting timers and automating lights a breeze. I recently got my parent's one and after only a week they were already using it with routines and were raving how much they could do with it. Great product.

    I own several of these. They work great. I use them for timers, alarm clock, operate tv, operate sound system, play music, operate lights, etc. Don’t believe everything you hear about these ease dropping on you. You can control what is kept online with settings.

    This device took some time to set up being my first time, but once it was linked it works great. Looks good, great sound for such a small speaker and was able to hook up my other devices with no problems.

    This is my 3rd echo dot and I've been pleasantly surprised with it. I've been able to incorporate a number of smart/home automation products with it and of course it integrates well with Amazon.
