    Alexa - upgrade our existing receiver

    One of the best things to use Alexa for is to update a non app enable receiver. With Amazon music or SXM, you can now use Voice command or an app to play music through a legacy sound system. Pretty slick.

    The 3rd gen Dot is worth the price when on sale. The sound coming from this little device is amazing for such a compact system. This is perfect for an office, dorm, or bedroom. "You Won't Be Disappointed!"

    I had a 2nd gen echo dot and bought one of these to replace it as well as two for my parents. The speaker is SO much better on this third gen than the second gen. It also looks nicer. Definitely recommend!

    Good speaker for how cheap it is. Makes it easy to set appointments and alarms as well. You can also have it turn off lights as long as they're attached to a smart hub.

    Love My Device

    I love my Echo Dot that I went and got a second one. Decided I was ready to join in with having a smart device and choose this since I have other Amazon devices. Setup was both simple and easy. It was connected to the Alexa app in less than a minute. It came with a free Sengled smart bulb which was easy to set up. Love that I can enter a room and tell Alexa to turn on the light and she does. Also love the fact I can turn off lights around the house without leaving my bed if someone forgets. The sound quality is great and I have truly enjoyed listening to my Holiday music. I would definitely recommend.

    I bought this for my 13 year old daughter (I have an older version-of course) and she loves it. It looks better than older version & sound is much better. I would definitely buy again if need be.

    I've owned both the dot versions 1 and 2. I like this version a whole lot more because of the sound quality is much better than the previous 2, i also like the new look a lot better. Easy setup as always.

    Can't say how many times Alexa has "reminded" me of little things on my schedule while busy, told me a daily joke to keep my smile going or quickly helped me get my shopping cart in order to keep the pantries stocked for specific dietary needs. Like any tech of this type... the more you use it the easier it becomes. However, DO NOT USE this with your Security system. I have heard horror stories... well... not quite "horror", but "stupid" stories. Alexa is meant to be flexible for users and while you can create a voice profile, that does not prevent anyone else from accessing your house, etc. Maybe in a future software upgrade, but for now... just use it for common, daily stuff around the house.
