    Very easy to install and manage with the phone and/or tablet app. The sound is surprisingly good and robust for a small speaker.

    I love it. I ask it to play any kind of genre and it grabs it from my iheartradio app. I recommend if you like a loud speaker or if you like futuristic devices that you can talk to.

    This is the 4th one that I’ve bought. Love these for listening to the radio. This was a birthday gift for my husband. He wanted something for the Lania to listen to his music. He has thanked me several times for the perfect gift!

    Im extremely happy that Amazon did a complete redesign of the Echo dot because it was badly in need of one. The 3rd generation is finally way louder and the build quality is much better as well. I was debating on whether or not to get the Google Home mini because I've heard good things about it but I went with the echos just to give them another try. Im so happy with my decision because these things look so much better and sound so much better and also being able to set 2 of them up as a stereo pair is a plus too because I like it when my music is at the same volume throughout the house since I put them in separate rooms and them setup the stereo pair.

    I bought this for my boyfriend’s son so he could have it in his game room. He loves the broadcast feature to he can be lazy and not have to walk and talk to anyone’s face, just broadcast his message throughout the house. I gave it 4/5 stars bc I personally have Google Home and think it’s better. I don’t really have anything to compare that to though. It all started as a gift I received and we built from there. This dot seems cool and these spoiled little kids are happy :)

    The Echo Dot is compact and can do so many things I can't begin to list them here. Very easy to set up after downloading the app, The $39.99 price makes it very affordable fun.
