    My wife wanted this. Me not so much, but the features changed my mind. We play music for the dog and it turns the lights off at night. Good addition to the family.

    We love them for the kiddos. They play music at night for bedtime. We have also set it up with multiple skills to allow them to do sleep mediation. Love them.

    Alexa is useful and sometimes fun. One has to be careful how you phrase your request or question. An example is I have to tell Alexa to "go" to cable, not "turn on" cable as "cable" is the HDMI designation.

    Helps with our baby’s night time routine. We made a playlist for him and it’s nice to just ask it to play that, and to have it play kids songs for him when he’s awake.

    I never wanted something like this in my home. Then it was on sale and I figured...well its kinda like a radio, right? Now we use it all the time and I've bought one for almost every room in the house. Plays music. Plays books. Keeps lists. Tells us the time and temperature. Sets alarms (very useful for digital school). I've even gotten them as gifts for people now, too.

    Does a good job at understanding en English but not the best with other languages. Sound is clear but not as loud as I'd like. Great addon to a sound system or bigger speaker. Great for small rooms where the volume works just right.

    It is incredible how good these new Echo Dots sound, music and voice quality is really very good and loud. Having the ability to create pairs for stereo sound is great.

    The speaker in the 3rd gen is incredibly better than the 2nd. Access to Apple Music and multi-room music is fantastic. Great integration and control off smart home products.

    I purchased the Ring Doorbell at Best Buy and the Echo Dot was included with the purchase. Thanks Best Buy! I love my Echo Dot! All you need to do is plug it in, get the app on your phone and follow the prompts. I ask Alexa silly questions, I ask her to play music, tell me jokes, set up my alarm, set up reminders, I ask for the weather, the time, etc. love it!
