    A low cost item that is a game changer. I installed compatible switches and all my house lights are synced with Alexa. Also, she plays any music I request. I set up daily reminders. I can not remember how life was before this. LOL. Great buy!!!

    I have used Alexa on another devices , so I bought this new 3rd generation Alexa echo dot and it’s awesome ! You can do just about anything with this little gadget, from listening music to turn on/off your lights ( smart plug needed) all with just your voice, making your house smart and easy to control. Plug in your Alexa echo follow instructions and with the help of Alexa app you’re set. The sound on the speaker is great , also you don’t really need to be that close to the echo dot for Alexa to hear you.

    I was skeptical at first, but not now. I like my two echos. And Alexa connects them for stereo surround sound. The only difference is one is white and the other black. Alexa wakes me up in the morning, reminds me to call my friends, records my shopping list, and there is lots more. Plus Alexa's voice is calm and soothing. I like my echo's with Alexa. Oh ya, and Alexa can guard your home against co2 and certain unusual loud sounds. Like breaking glass.

    I have like 4 of these in the house! They are great and I also love that they hook up to the Ring Doorbell! This way you don't need any extra chimes in the house!! Love playing music while cooking and at night we use the one in the bedroom to play sleep sounds to sleep better. The are just the right size with a good amount of sound to fit anywhere in your home!

    Amazon Dot gen 3 is awesome

    My wife bought me a single white gen 3 dot for Christmas. When she mentioned it to me, I didn't think much about it and thought cool ... I'll look into it I guess. Since getting it for Christmas, I loved it so much I bought an Echo plus, and 2 of these charcoal dots. I use one of these in the kids room and the other in our office. I like that each dot, depending on the room it is assigned to, can quickly control the immediate devices in that room, as well as other devices assigned to other rooms.

    We already have an Echo Show for the bedroom, but quite frankly, it's mostly the speaker part we use more than the screen, mostly for Pandora and Podcasts. I got the 3rd gen Echo dot to use in the bathroom as a satellite "radio" I can control by voice from the bathtub and/or take with me for travel. The sound is excellent for such a small size and the blue-green ring is very nice, especially in a darkened room. List price is a bargain, but getting it at one of the Amazon sale periods is a total steal!

    Amazon - Echo Dot (3rd Gen) - Charcoal

    I am so amazed at the Amazon Echo Dot 3rd generation. It is like having a personal assistant right on my nightstand. I can set up alarms, ask tons of questions & get the answers I need immediately. The sound quality is very surprising for such a small speaker, plus you can request it to play tons of different songs. Of course the best part is the fantastic price offered by Best Buy for this item which is why I'd never shop anywhere else for any & all electronic item for myself or as gifts for others.

    Bought a second Echo after I we moved. My kids love talking to this device. I switch it off when I don’t want to be eavesdropped on. I love to listen ring to music via Alexa Echo and quickly ask the weather, get a answer via the internet, etc. A must have at a decent price!

    I'm in love with this product

    I had no idea I'd love Alexa so much - I wake up in the morning and she does the routine I've set up, and she's so comforting and useful and fun overall. My husband and I played Skills trivia games for hours last night. If we had kids it would be even more super useful (kids workouts, stories, games) - we even had a goodnight story read to us by Alexa and it was awesome. I'm really loving it. The Echo Dot itself is pretty great - the sound quality is pretty good, the bass when turned up is not that great, but if you really want to rock out you can connect it to other speakers or just use something else instead. I'm really surprised by how much I like the Alexa app (and the Echo Dot), because I'm a little resistant to technology, but it's pretty easy to figure out and feels like a new little buddy in the home. I'm excited to get some SmartHome stuff now so I can turn on/off lights, heat, etc. The only tiny issue I have is that for some reason Alexa doesn't pick up my husband's voice as much as it does mine - maybe because I've used it more? Really cool, though, overall - I feel like Judy Jetson!

    Black Friday super deal. Better speaker and nicer looking than first generation dot. Very easy to install with app. Many newer styles and sizes but I prefer this smaller unit

    Great Sound for little speaker, especially when using with Wi-Fi/Internet. Easy to set up individually. Download app for adding more for whole home simultaneous play. Alexa has many, many features and will take time to lean. Amaonzon will periodically send emails (if you sign up) providing additional command recommendations, etc. Con: Always listening (can easily turn off) and sends info to them on your commands (for learning and making improvements, etc).
