    Connecting the Dots ...

    We have one of these things in nearly every room of my house. When used with Alexa's evolving smart home feature set, this allows me to control nearly all aspects of my smart home automation, and also provide a nice low-cost alternative to multi-room audio playback solutions.

    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

    Not very tech savvy with these type of things, but I like that it sets a great alarm, covers the weather, and even recommends some good music and shows. If you've ever wanted one, it's worth getting and it makes a great addition to my ever growing tech lifestyle.

    I resisted “The Man” listening in at my house to all of my conversations and arguing— haha These things are pretty cool. You can say hey Alexa, play 80s One Hit Wonders and was la, you are back in the club. The sound isn’t too shabby either.

    Love my echo dot! Super useful when your bored. I always ask her dumb questions and she always has an answer. Also when I am to lazy to do things she’s the perfect helper like state the time or what the weather is outside for the day.

    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.

    It’s the way of the future! Alexa can be setup for numerous tasks. She can turn on/off our TV. She can stream music from Pandora and other music apps. She can turn on/off our lights (purchased a sep smart plug), we even got her programmed to do spelling quizzes for our kids.

    I use my Echo Dot to stream Sirius and Spotify because Jazz is limited in the city of San Antonio. I haven't used the other options yet, but I know that when I do I will be amazed, and happy with the results. Happy customer, excellent purchase.

    They make these little devices cheap because it will reel you in. I started with this and thoroughly enjoyed my Alexa experience. I use this in conjunction with Philips hue bulbs, smart plugs and other echo devices. I have no complaints. Good quality, response time and sound.

    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.

    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.

    I used my Dots in sync with my Blink doorbell so that I can hear the doorbell ring anywhere in the house. I then started using it to play music and give me reminders for different things.
