    I love my echo dot. I have four of them and they really help make my life easier. They can control almost everything, lights, locks TV, music, thermostat. It hears you almost all of the time and I've run into very few issues with it overall. I really couldn't ask for a more helpful device. It's even more handy when I found that I could get a battery base for it. The GGMM D3 base that I found lets me carry the alexa dot around pretty much anywhere. I love that I can take it into the bathroom with me and listen to music while I shower or take it outside and listen to music. That's really the only thing I think it was missing.

    I’ve never wanted one of these because of all the headlines of it listening etc. I got this for free with a purchase and I’m already considering buying a few around the house. I only use it for music. I like how you can play music from your account to it and still play music from your mobile phone which is unnecessary but cool to do. I can be on the phone talking while music plays. If you get one try it there a bunch of other cool uses for it. Not that scary.

    Dot

    Easy to install and nice for security. Have added a second dot in the basement. It is nice to be able to play music on both. You do have to get her attent before you give command. Sometimes she does not understand and babbles. It is also nice to have with plugs and switches in your home that it will operate.

    Great sound, easy to use. I’ve been recommending them to everyone I know since! We’d been using expensive portable speakers in each room and the sound doesn’t even compare!

    It is easy to set up by downloading the Alexa app and also easy to pair with Alexa compatible devices such as smart plugs. I bought this when it’s on sale and it indeed is a great item to buy.

    What can I say that hasn’t been said about these, it’s an Echo Dot! We have them in every room now and they’re integral to so many things. Listening to music (great depth and range for such a small device), using it as an alarm clock or for running multiple kitchen timers while cooking, controlling smart devices (Alexa turn the porch light on), ordering from Amazon…this list could go on forever! Still learning new features all the time, too. And if you’re worried about privacy…either stop doing things online that you shouldn’t be or just trade in your smartphone for a landline. ;)

    The 3rd gen Dot sounds a lot better than the 2nd gen. The device is loud and the sound is richer. Now I want to upgrade my existing 2nd gen devices. Almost too hard to pass up when they are on sale.

    For under $30, this smart speaker is great. Sound quality is on par with a speaker system that costs ten times the price and the compact design makes it easy to setup anywhere. Overall great value.
