    This was an add-on with my Ring Door Bell Pro. It is a nicely sized so blends well with other items at home. We have this in my Kid's bedroom and he uses it to check on the time, the weather, setup alarm, ask various questions and listen to music. we even used it for background spooky music when my kid was recording a Halloween story. For its size, the speaker is pretty good.

    I am very happy with this purchase. I like the style, the sound, being able to connect several echoes together, and the extra possibilities to set up a smart home, and at an affordable price. I bought three, and would like to buy more for gifts.

    I love how easy it is to use. I think the sound is pretty good too, I just use it to listen to music in my room and it does a pretty good job for that.

    I got this as a bonus in a package deal but it performed well for a freebie! Setup was easy and it behaved just like any echo devices! Sound quality coming out of such a tiny speaker is loud and clear. Simply amazing!

    I purchased this for exactly what it does which is provide an ability to have something small and portable when traveling. The sound quality is good, especially for the price, and it is a better option than wearing headphones all the time.

    I have multiple Alexa products and this one was part of a package deal. The size is great and it works as the rest of the Alexa products work so the house is a little more connected. I would have paid for this product...well worth the 30 bucks they're asking

    Plugged in the Echo Dot, downloaded the app, not much set up and I was off and running. I use it mostly for IHeart Radio and the weather. If you want to have fun, ask Alexa "who's the leader of the club that's made for you and me." I had to laugh.

    Very easy to set-up. I was undecided if I should get the 4th gen or this 3rd gen. Since the speaker power was the same for both, I decided to go for this 3rd gen and it works perfect. Very responsive to voice commands.

    This is a great smart home speaker, if you are willing to invest in the switches, sockets, and other accessories. I love being able to turn on the lights outside just by speaking. Otherwise the speaker is good enough for light music.

    My favorite part about the echo dot is I can sync them all to play the same music from my phone. I have one in every room and I can adjust the volume. It’s like having a wireless speaker system in my entire house. The sound is not overpowering so if you’re looking for something that will be super loud, this may not be the device for you, however, if you’re looking for subtle music to play, while entertaining, you will love this!
