Customer Ratings & Reviews

So cool, just tell it what to turn on, You can change colors of the lights, you can download it to your newer phones and tell Alexa what to turn on. I love it.

We have three different Echo devices (this dot, a 5, and an 8 inch Echo Show) and this one is great to just have in every room for Alexa access. The speaker is adequate (the Shows have more robust sound), and it hears you clearly. Sometimes it does think you're saying "Alexa" when you're actually saying something like "Well, let's go...", but that is more amusing than annoying. It's the cheapest way to get into the smart home game, and paired with the Alexa app, it's really easy to get started.

I bought this for a gift and they love it and very pleased doesn't take up much room sounds clear

i use this for bedroom lighting, tv, music, amazon shopping, you name it. It's simple to use once you get the hang of everything. The online alexa and alexa app makes it easy to customize settings set up routines etc

works perfectly accurate and durable love using it for music and alarm.

I love my new echo dot it’s loud and the sound quality is amazing for such a small speaker! The only problem is it sometimes has a Bluetooth problems when connecting to my phone, but other than that it’s great.

First smart speaker. Easy to set up though your phone and works great. Family loves using it to play music. And it can make announcement to let your family know if you are coming home or getting food though the Alexa app.

First of all why in the world do I need to have 50 word minimum ?? I've NOT given reviews for this very reason ! I would think any review you would want to hear........... This is plain goofy to me ! Well as to the purchase of the Amazon - Echo Dot (3nd Gen)- Smart Speaker with Alexa -Charcoal. I really enjoy it. I would tell others to get one. I do plan on buying another one. Hope this meets with the 50 characters. Thank you. PS - fixt that 50 thing. You will either get no ans. back or some body just going on to meet it .................................................................

It is vey useful to have Alexa around. I connected her to my dining room light and I love it! I love asking it questions and getting a response immediately. I love it that it plays music on command.

I love my echo dot. I have 5 and use them for an intercom system throughout the entire house. My surprised me because I didn't know it made phone calls. I play my music from Spotify daily. Easy to setup.

Perfect for what we need it for. Bought two for each sons room and great overall. We play nighttime music for bed time and also they have learned to ask for weather. Price is great and can control all at once.

Alexa is awesome. There are so many things to do while using Alexa. I love playing music as easily saying the name of the song and she will play it. I can also set an alarm. I can call someone. I really recommend it!

There might not be a ton you'd use this for if you don't have a lot of other things around your home that would be considered "smart" devices. But if you do, this is great for simple tasks such as turning your light on or off. The best part is Alexa, which has come a long way since its introduction a while back. It's my personal favorite of the big 3 assistants you could use.

Does the work as intended. My daughter loves. Sets alarm, play music, knows the weather. Its more like a personal assistant.

Echo Dot is great. This device can play music, control home devices, answer questions, set an alarm, connect to your calendar and give you updates and alerts to upcoming appointments.

The Amazon Echo Dot is the easiest way to add voice integration to your smart home and the 3rd generation Echo Dot does not disappoint. Attractive design and a better sounding speaker makes this a great addition to the Echo line up.

This echo dot has great sound for a small $18 speaker. I set these all around my house and they work like an intercom system. So convenient when calling the kids for dinner. Music sounds great too.

Alexa resists some queries, either shutting down, or saying, "I'd rather not answer that", or she does not know. She is good at reminders. You can make many repeat reminders of the same thing. She plays many different song requests with ads breaking in. She turns light on/off, dims/brightens lights, she says "you're welcome", or "you bet", or "anytime" when I say thank you. She tells me the time, date when I ask her. She tells me news, history, all kinds of information. Alexa also learns from the users. Sometimes I unplug my bedroom Echo Dot so she does not tell me an early reminder if I want to sleep longer. Plus I turn off my router and modem. Gotta have some solitude.

Purchased this speaker when I purchased the Echo. Excellent quality sound when used with the Echo. Easy to connect and use. Quality sound for the entire room.

SO MUCH FUN! Nice to be able to ask it things like the weather, definitions, news, etc. Loud speaker. And works great with Alexa app/Amazon music to control other devices connected to your account.
