Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy to hook up. I talk to her everyday. And even say Thank you. Getting a few more for Christmas presents. Shopping done.

This was our first Alexa product. I was excited to see what all the hype was about, especially for the low price. It was a great way to get easy, voice-based music into our son's room. As a music player, it's awesome. It integrates well with Apple Music, and is much easier than connecting a phone to a Bluetooth speaker just to listen to music. It makes it a casual, spontaneous thing (instead of an intentional, dedicated activity we're far less likely to engage in). Alexa hears well and the Echo Dot sounds pretty good in a small room. It's nowhere near the sound quality of our HomePod -- but it was a fraction of the price. A few hang-ups, though... First, Alexa is great with general knowledge, but pretty poor when it comes to voice command flexibility. Siri on the HomePod understands conversational English far better (and variations of commands -- read: Siri seems to look for intent rather than a static catchphrase). When we use Alexa Skills designed for kids, it really stands out to me how limited the commands are. If we get them even slightly off, the games break. I should be able to say "sure" instead of "yes" and have it know that I'm giving an affirmative command. Alexa is also very finicky with smart home accessories. Sometimes she knows which light I want turned on/off and sometimes she has no clue. I wish it plugged into HomeKit. In general, the skills kinda stink. They're gimmicks. That aspect is disappointing. But as a very low cost and pretty good smart speaker for music in our kids room? This thing is great for that.

Love it have one in both bedrooms i also bought the echo show

The speaker works like a charm. The sound quality is much better than we expected. Love the product.

Great little addition that makes little tasks like weather,news and music easily accessible.

Having echo dot simplify my daily routine at home like turning on and off music and also lighting,this is a big help.

I like it its east to plat music, but you have to purchase if there is specific music you want to plat it.

The Echo is a really good device it works well and it is easy to set up but every once in a while there are some issues. Sometimes the device gets stuck and can't play a station. Overall it is good,

what's there not to love my kid is addicted to the echo dot

I have two of these and two shows throughout the house. The pickup command very well, I think even better than the show.

We are enjoying our Echo Dot. We use it for music and alarms. Very convenient and super easy to set up.

This Echo Dot is like having a personal assistant but better. It does everything including make calls

I got one free with a Ecobee thermostat. I have had a gen 2 for some time now. The gen 3 has a much better sound quality.

My alexa has been a perfect companion in my office...no connection problems and easy to set up!

Pretty easy to use. I set mine in front of the tv which is the easiest place to hear it in the house.

This was our first echo dot. We use it to listen to music, ask jokes, and the weather. The only downfall was it was not as easy to connect to smart lights and other gadgets. To fix this, we bought an Amazon - Echo.

These things are great to have. We have them in 3 rooms so far. We check weather or play music by just saying "Alexa"

My favorite Alexa product. Recognizes voices better than echo show.

I really love that I can be around my place and get so much information or listen to my music.

I am not good in technology, but my granddaughter help me with the installation, so, I am enjoying it! Thanks
