    I love these Echo Dots! I have them in every room. We are so Alexa dependent. I taught my 2 year old grandson how to call Nana thru the Dot and Echo Shows.

    I got one of these for my wife as a last minute stocking stuffer. She is very happy and uses it daily. Santa was nice enough to get me one as well. Glad he did, I use it every morning as I get ready for work.

    Better sound than 2nd gen echo dot

    The new echo dot is almost 2x bigger than the 1rst and 2nd gen echo dot. It also ditched the usb plug for a 15w proprietary plug, which is a bit disappointing. However the trade off is much better sound and even a hint of bass. The mics seem to pickup even when it’s playing music, which is a relief, not having to shout at the echo when it’s playing something.

    This was a gift for my son. This is such a helpful gadget. I was skeptical at first, but after putting the parental settings on, Alexa is a genius. What doesn’t she know? My son loves the question of the day!

    What a great idea! Used it to play christmas music while I was baking cookies. I can also link it with my Sirius XM account. Got one for my son so he can automatically turn off all his video consoles. Love it.

    The sound from the 3rd generation has greatly improved since the 1st generation. This is great for a bedroom or workshop and sounds great. I would recommend this product.

    The 3rd generation is noticeably bigger than 1st and 2nd generation echo dots and is well constructed. I like the color variations and the charcoal grey color easily blends in with other electronic equipment.

    Easy setup and it replaced my GOOGLE device which repeated in a loud voice every command executed. Echo simply makes a simple chime sound upon execut.

    Bought this for the hubby to use in his basement workshop. He is able to listen to music or the game, and I can just “drop in” through Alexa when I need to tell him something.

    Works great. The sound quality from this thing is actually really good. I'm no speaker junkie but any means but it sounds great with good low end for such a small device.

    I primarily bought this to stream music without having to be connected to my phone. Works great for that and I'm really impressed with the quality of sound, especially considering the price!
