    We now have a Echo Dot in each bedroom. Great for waking to and falling asleep music. Also a great timer, weather forecast and other uses that keeps you hands free.

    The third generation of the Echo Dot works fine. I am not considered a geek so the differences between it and the first generation Dot I have escape me. Does look a little sleeker.

    Dont get fooled by the size of this speaker, it sounds amazing. With its voice control feature I can turn on and of many things in my house like lights, fans and AC, I love it.

    This is definitely a great improvement over the gen 1 Echo Dot. While the bass notes are still limited due to the size of the speaker, the sound overall is quite decent for it's size. It also looks a lot nicer, too. So far, I haven't had any issues installing or using this device. It seems pretty reliable so far. I'm currently using this mostly to control my Philips Hue smart bulbs in my bedroom.

    I love the third gen, it’s so much much louder and more clear than the previous generations, and with the great sales I bought two and paired them together for stereo in my living room!

    I really like several of the features of the Echo Dot. I enjoy using it to access Amazon Music & running it through my sound bar. I enjoy being able to ask questions for quick answers and I enjoy the ambient sounds available when I go to sleep. However, although the built in speaker has a warm tone, I found it distorts easily.

    Sound is not bad for the size but I do like that Alexa understands with no issues and provides good answer. I think Alexa is by far the best voice activated helper

    The Dots are fun to use for pranks on your kids. Hide them in your kids rooms, and then use the Alexa app to start sending music or animal sounds to their room. Fun times!
