Customer Ratings & Reviews

I use my Alexa at work as a portable speaker to play music (so I don't use it for the myriad of other things/features it offers). It is more than adequate for my needs. I like the small size.

Super handy I ask Alexa the time when I wake up rather than searching for my phone now. It has a great speaker and works really well I have no complaints.

Great product. I have bought one for my whole family. My Grandma loves it. The product can make phone call, turn off lights, turns smart tv off and on, plays music. Pretty cool.

Slightly larger unit versus v2, but with much improved speakers/audio. I am not an audiophile, and have used both echo and echo dot. For the price, echo dot is fine for my use in both bedrooms and living rooms.

The 3rd generation echo dot is an excellent addition to the other Echo's around the house. It's small and can easily hide under a TV on a stand. It also has a nice sound coming from this compact speaker.

Works as it should. Plays music. Great to control smart home and great when you’re on the go and have to ask a simple question. Perfect for what me and my family needed it for.

I love my echo dot, I use it to listen to music ask general questions, control other smart devices, play music, make phone calls, it’s amazing what that little thing can do!

Alexa is so helpful I have mine connected to my Phillips hue lights and my nest thermostat. I can control everything. She tells great stories appreciates when you say please and thank you. Just a great lady ;)

Good sounds quality and easy to hook up with my other Alexa’s that I have around the house.

Definitely an improvement from the 1st generation. I like the size and it works with the Bluetooth light.. which was free with purchase..Great volume

Love this little guy. May be slightly difficult to set up, if you're not familiar with the Alexa app. Sounds great. Love the idea of connection multiple size Echo speakers. Wish it had a battery. Think they are available as a secondary purchase. If it did, I'd give 5 stars.

The new echo dot just keeps getting better. Great sound and improved functionality. Great buy for the price to start any smart home. Plus a great buy to add music to every room without wiring the entire house.

Awesome little device. Easily accesses my music library and film library. Sets wake alarms and turns on/off other devices.

these newer dots are good fir putting around the house like i have done. i have one in the rooms i spend the most time in. it controls several lights for us and is necessary in our iot hone.

I primarily use this as a bluetooth speaker for music with the occasional command to see what the weather will be today. Alexa is very responsive, and the quality of the sound is surprisingly good. Plus I think the design is pretty sleek. If you can get this on sale like I did (Amazon products go on huge sales a lot), you will not be disappointed.

I glad I finally purchased this device. It’s been interesting and somewhat enjoyable to use voice for most everything. So far I’m pleased and impressed that this small device can do so much.

My elderly mother absolutely had to have one for Christmas. I got it for her, set it up, and got it going without a hitch. It works really well and the music sounds great out of it. I linked several skills for Mom at her request such as the InTouch Devotional program and Pandora very easily. I really have no complaints. My elderly mother; however, feels differently. This is not the Echo Dot's fault. Mom just doesn't understand how Alexa works and they have a stormy relationship. She thinks Alexa doesn't listen, but Alexa does. She thinks Alexa doesn't answer correctly, but Alexa tries as hard as it can to decipher what Mom is trying to say. Mom doesn't understand that a music subscription is needed for Alexa to play the music she wants right away. I warned Mom about all of this, but she thought she and Alexa would live well together. They do not. Over the last year, Alexa has been moved slowly more and more out of the way. The last time I was at Mom's house, Alexa had disappeared. At least Alexa has found peace. Bottom line, if one is not internet savvy, they will not much enjoy the Echo Dot. If they know how the internet works, they will enjoy it.

I have one of these in almost every room. Set alarms, ask questions and play music. Just don’t ask Alexa is she’s part of Skynet cause she just shuts off without an answer

Excellent sound and functionality when factoring cost. Like the compact size and speed which device responds to verbal commands

Bought as a gift and they love it. Easy to use and setup. Great buy at a great price. Sound is great also and the app that you have to download for setup is also easy to use.
