    I like the duel speakers while playing music. Fairly easy to set up. A little frustrating on tweaking the settings just right, but I’m no geek.

    Nice sound for a small footprint. Had some difficulty connecting to bt speakers at first, but finds paired items fast once installed. Wish it had a portable power supply (battery) but maybe in gen 4. Does not interfere with my Alexa enabled sound bar, can have different sounds in different rooms.

    I bought this on Black Friday to replace my gen1 echo dot and the sound quality is amazingly better. As with most Amazon stuff this is easy to setup and add to your others.

    Replaced my Gen 1 Dot. In sale for $30. Biggest improvements are continuous connectivity and much better sound quality. Still not as good as Echo Get 2 but not far behind.

    If you are like me and you'd like better sound quality than the small speaker in this puck-sized device (not that it sounds terrible), you can easily hook this up to a receiver or amplifier with a Y-splitter style RCA cable (it has a standard headphone plug on one end and the red and white RCA jacks on the other). This works perfectly, you just have to coordinate the volume between the device and your receiver or amplifier.

    I bought 2 of them to go with a 2nd generation one I received earlier. It was easy to connect and then link them. They certainly sound better than the 2nd generation one.

    The 3rd generation dot has better sound and design than the original dot. Original had more of an industrial design compared to the sleeker shape of this version.

    I bought the echo dot when it was on sale, already have the big echo. I really like them both, they have good sound, especially for music. The echo dot is small enough you can put it just about any where.I would buy it again.

    We have three Echo's in our home and would hate to live without them. One is in our bedroom and mostly serves as an alarm clock and light switch. One in the garage controls the lights and is used to stream music to an external blue tooth speaker. The one in our great room is used to play background music. It has such great sound that our Bose is collecting dust most of the time. And of course it controls multiple lights and receptacles.
