    I LOVE this device. It came it free when I purchased my Insignia TV and will purchase three or four more for other rooms. I would have given this a 5-star rating, but I ran into problems when I tried to buy them online.

    Better sound than the original Dot. We use it on the patio for music and home automation. Looks better and is more solid than the original Dot. Works good .

    I was blown away on how loud and clear this little speaker is. Of course you won’t get deep bass, but it’s still nice and is able to pick up your voice from across the room.

    Works very well. Picks up voice from a good distance. Easy to connect and use. Sometimes it gets difficult for it to pick up voice while it's also producing audio.

    we have the Alexa 1st generation which works great and purchased this one to be on other room, mostly for music and timers; great sound quality, easy to set up if you already have the app.

    Neat little dot

    I have a couple of the 2nd gen echo dots. The sound quality on these are much better than the 2nd gen. The dot itself is great. It integrated into my wink hub and I can control my entire smart home line of products with it. It also integrates into your calendar so it can tell you what is planned for the day. You can purchase items from amazon on it, order pizza, and even an uber. You also can set it up to work as an alarm clock as well. If you have multiple echos, they work as an intercom system in your house. Overall a great product.

    Good but not great

    The dot is mostly fun and convenient. I give it 4 stars b/c I said "mostly". Not sure how anyone can think something that works most of the time, instead of all the time, is 5 star material. This is all new tech, so problems should be expected. Getting into an argument w/ Alexa b/c you are so frustrated the device is not doing what you are telling it to do (misunderstands command) only happens occasionally, but it still happens, even many months after purchase. I also use Alexa to control many lights...that is if the lights are still connected. That could be the light brand and could be Alexa, but every couple months I am re-setting up a light that is no longer connected to Alexa, which is not convenient, and convenience is pretty much the point. Overall, I am happy w/ my dots (have 3 and use them as intercoms), just don't expect perfection or 5 star performance.
