    I received this after cancelling my Sirius XM radio subscription. I can stream Pandora radio for free and the sound I get on this small Dot works very well. I am very happy that I chose to go with this.

    This little Amazon Echo Dot is great. We predominantly use it to play music for our daughter. It has had no issues and we ended up getting another one for her bedroom.

    We owned an Echo Dot in our living room and wanted another for our bedroom. It is so easy to just say "Alexa play (enter favorite music here)" and hear all the songs you want.

    We use it to find out the weather and turn on music. I works well for these uses. It does give me an uneasy feeling knowing that Alexa is listening to us all the time.

    This was something that I would not have normally purchased for myself, but it came as a promo with another item we purchased and we absolutely love it. We've bought a few more.

    You can't expect to live in the future without having an Alexa in your home. This Echo Dot is not only a speaker to listen to all your favorite music. From turning on the lights in your home, to playing 20 questions, this smart speaker does it all in a nice compact and contemporary style.

    Trying to See the Utility

    I am interested in home automation so I thought I would start with the Dot to begin experimenting. Also picked up a set of smart light bulbs that work with Alexa. The lights in my bedroom which include two ceiling lights and two lamps are all connected to the Alexa so I can turn them on and off with a single voice command which is handy. So far that’s about it. I have the thermostat also connected to Alexa but I find it’s easier to use the Honeywell app on my phone to turn on the AC or make adjustments. The speaker is rather muffled so I don’t use it for music. I may connect it to my stereo to see if it sounds any better. Sometimes I ask for a weather report which is handy. Looking around the house for other potential applications. I’m thinking of a video surveillance system tied into the Alexa but have not researched which cameras would be best. So for now I have a rather expensive light switch that can tell me the weather report.

    Awesome product, great sound. Sound is actually a bit better with full size echo. Quick music access while getting ready without having to search for CDs. Control appliances with voice commands.

    Although not the very latest model, the Echo Dot is a very reliable product. Not only do I play music through the Dot, it also allows me to control my lights through out the house, and actually control my TV (via YouTube Tv). I am very happy with this product.
