    Bought these for kid's Christmas presents. They're in their rooms, working great and they are enjoying them. They use them every night to sleep with, using lullaby or soft music. They also like talking to Alexa. Asking v as Rios questions from time to time.

    Surprise free bonus which was included with the purchase of a TV. The Echo Dot has the ability to play music, answer questions, as well as many other features. It is hands free and very portable.

    Bought this Alexa for my daughter for Christmas. She enjoys music and I figured she’d love it compared to using YouTube to listen to music. We have the Show and I can communicate with her through the Alexas if need be.

    This was a free gift with another purchase. We have had more fun than expected playing Alexa’s games, trivia, listening to stories, ambient sounds. We can ask questions like one would ask Siri. And the vast expanse of free music is more than expected. Great gift!

    This is my second echo dot in the house. Love them both! You can link them to your ring doorbell, and any music apps. You can also drop in on another Alexa from your echo dot or your cellphone which is great. Easy set up as well.

    The Amazon echo dot is a really great smart speaker. I have 3 of them so far throughout my house along with 2 Homepods. The echo dots are good for a bedroom and areas like that. The bigger speakers will be wanted in areas like your living room.

    Full disclosure - My home is a google smart home, but this item came free as a bonus from another purchase over the holidays. I wanted to try it out just to check the differences between my google home minis. My only complaint is that I wished all of the smart home companies worked together and were all user friendly with one another...oh well...maybe someday in the future we can all learn to get along : )

    Amazon's third-generation Echo Dot ($49) looks good and sounds great. With vastly improved audio, it's now a distinctly better smart speaker than the Google Home Mini, and can replace the larger $99 Echo for less picky folks.

    This came with another purchase. I didn’t anticipate using it much, but I love adding groceries without typing on my phone. I also love that anyone in the house can add groceries. My children have fun asking her questions too.

    I purchased the Echo Dot to assist an elderly friend with vision problems. It has proved very helpful in assisting her with knowing dates and times as reading clocks and watches became impossible. She is enjoying music and asking informational questions.

    Mom has mobility issues these days and should not be trying to get around in the dark. Have paired this with WIFI light bulbs. Now she can tell the lights to come on, and they do. Also love the ability to use as phone in emergency.

    The size of the echo dot makes it easy to place anywhere in a room however the cord sticks out very noticeably. The microphones work very well. I was really surprised how well the microphones registered voice commands even 15 feet away while speaking normally. For the size, the quality of the speakers are what you would expect. Its size and how easily it picks up what you say make it perfect for adding smart home voice controls to any room.

    Picking up a 3rd generation echo dot for under $30 is a no brainer. The smart function, easy of use and control of other smart home devices led me to Anazons Alexa. Purchased several for different rooms and the audio quality is excellent for such a small speaker.

    Me and my husband absolutely love this echo, we bought three, connected all of them via Bluetooth and we use them as speakers for around the house or we use them by themselves. Plus, they sound fantastic, a good upgrade if you want to change your echo dot 2nd gen.

    Ease of setup was a plus. Mostly used as a speaker for music to and to check weather. Still somewhat paranoid about having a device always listening, but the ability to mute the mic is great. I received the product free with a purchase, otherwise I would not have purchased it, but it serves a purpose in my home.

    I got this as a package deal with the Ring doorbell 2 for my parents. I have the previous generation at home and I have to say I may be switching to these. They are a bit bigger but the sound has improved a lot. Try and buy them when they are on sale.

    Does everything advertised. Very good hearing, I never have to repeat and it actually understands what I say. This is my second one (I have one in the garage, where I work a lot) and one in my office.
