Customer Ratings & Reviews

This 3rd Gen Alexa Dot has drastically improved since the 1st Gen of which I own. The speaker is much louder and better quality. Setup is straightforward and took less than 5 minutes. Highly recommend.

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.

My family loves this!! It plays music we want, tells us the weather, where our package delivery is, answers question about every subject we have ask, turns a light on and off with the plug our son bought for us!

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!

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.

I was hesitant at first to purchase a smart home assitance device, however, I am more than pleased with it. I now own 3 of them around the house.

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.

Purchased for my child, very helpful in keeping them organized and updated. The speaker quality is nice too! Totally worth the reasonable price.

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.

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.

Good sound quality. Easy to set up. Love announcement feature.

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 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.

Excellent overall, good quality, good size, clear sounding, love it even for gifts

It is the perfect size. The sound quality is excellent. It does everything I need it do. Have not had any problems.

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.

Great devices - 3rd gen is good. I prefer the sound if the 2nd Gen. I have two 3rd gen with wall mounts to hide cable paired with an echo sub for a great 2.1 music system.

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 ;)

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.

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.
