    The sou d out of the Echo Dot is pretty good, but not as strong as the Echo. I am using this to connect to my bluetooth speaker and I am very pleased with how well it is working.

    I never thought it would be so useful. It can even notify when my Amazon packages ships and arrives. ask it anything or set alarms with just your voice. sounds pretty dang nice to me.

    I got this for free with a Ring at Best Buy. I used to own a 1st Generation echo dot and this is a step up. It feels nicer and the sound fills up a medium-sized room. Would highly recommend.

    Bought to go in my bedroom to use as alarm. I also listen to sleep sounds at night. Of course music too! Love her. She even whispers now when I whisper a question.

    As a Christmas present, I gave this to my son who has two boys. They love playing with the Echo Dot and Echo Show I have so I got them this. They love to ask Alexa questions and listen to music.

    These speakers are awesome. Well, Alexa is awesome, the speakers are pretty standard. The bass is not really there, but it's good for listening to while you work or study. I'd connect it to a larger speaker for a party (which you're able to do!) I love being able to use it as an intercom between rooms. Pretty cool, all in all.

    We never thought we would own one of these, but when we got it free with a Christmas sale purchase, we tried it out and was pleasantly surprised. Our son enjoys answering the question of the day.

    I have the first gen Echo Dot and this is better looking and also has a better speaker. At these low sale prices, I am putting these units all over the house so I can give commands from anywhere.

    I primarily use Echo Dot as a satellite unit for announcements, whole house music, etc. audio quality is ok. However... I use the Echo Plus as my smart home hub, listening to audiobooks, music. If you know you will eventually add more smart home devices, start with your hub and get the Echo Plus. Add on with Dots as you build your network.

    I used the Echo Dot 3 at my office, helps updating me with the latest news and nice music background. Sometimes Alexa helps with conversions and common questions in a routine day.

    This Alexa is small but yet convenient to have in either the room or the bathroom if you do not want something too massive or I’m the way.

    They need printed instructions to install them. What a mess trying to figure out how to install. Very good sounds. Love them. The 4th generation with the clock sounds a little better, but like both of them. Great sounds.

    This is pretty awesome. I wish I had purchased it sooner. This also works great with the Amazon Fire stick and many other things after purchasing smart plugs. Alexa is so smart and helpful, lol!
