    Simple Setup, just plug it in and add to Alexa Network. Works perfectly. Great addition in order to announce in every room that's Alexa installed

    Great hands free device that makes life just a tad more enjoyable. Easily connects to wifi and set up was simple enough, although you never really stop setting up because there are so many devices that it can set up with and connect to. I have 2 set up with a 3rd still in the box. My teenage kids enjoy asking Alexa questions and hearing its quirky, smart alec answers. It can tell you jokes, set reminders, connect to your calendar and emails and so on and so on. Already planning on getting my kids each 1 for their rooms. Endless possibilities!

    Great small size, fits anywhere. Fast and does everything I ask it to. I have Sirius XM and it seamlessly added it to Alexa. Skills are easy to add also.

    Great little gadget. Works great, just loud enough: plays music, gives weather, I use it all the time for timers when cooking. Love the device. Use it to play party music on multiple devices. Use it to turn on and off lights also, great product. Highly recommend!

    Price is great when this is on sale and works with most of my smart home devices. Sound quality is too boomy compared to gen 2. Response is a bit slower than gen 2, but overall look is more refined. It is physically bigger than the previous generation. Great as a gift as well.

    I am disabled and have mobility issues. I refused to try Alexa because I was worried it would be an intrusion of my privacy. Well, I bought my first Echo Dot a week and a half ago. It has been so empowering for me to not struggle over to turn on lights. It also allows me to turn lights on or off from bed. Now I have 8 echo dots all around the hose. I couldn’t have had better timing. Black Friday deals meant this either came with an outlet included or just $22 for each additional dot. This has been incredibly helpful to keep me independent and safe.

    Oh my Gosh!!! we got this for my six-year-old son because he loves listening to music but he actually uses it to find out information. He doesn’t know and ask questions and the whole family loves it to listen to music in different areas of the house. We bought several more after this purchase!

    I dont know how i live without this device. The sound on it is PHENOMENAL. You can plug it up any where in the house. I purchased the Toshiba Fire TV 65inch and received this for free. I had already got the TV for a good deal. You Rock Bestbuy!!!!

    I got this for Christmas more as a speaker for music. But there are things that I asked of Alexa that I didn't think she could actually do. Without reading a huge book of what you can do with it, you can just try asking her to do things and mostly she can. You can have her call people, set a timer for that pizza in the oven, even play music, but turn off after a period of time. I'm still learning the capabilities of three echo Dot. As for sound quality (cause I know that's what everyone wants to know) I will say it's pretty good, but at the same time, I have nothing to compare it to.

    I had a generation 1 Alexa and this version is by far superior in size, design and speakers. Its so loud I sometimes forget its not connected to my surrounded sound system. The only negative I have is when I have the sink running or kitchen vent going she doesn't fully understand me.

    The Amazon Echo Dot impresses with its compact design and powerful voice assistant, Alexa. With clear audio and smart home integration, it's a versatile addition to any space. Its budget-friendly price makes it an attractive choice for those looking to dip into the world of smart speakers.

    I own over a half dozen Echo's. This third gen Dot has about as good a sound as the first gen full size Echo. While lacking in bass, it makes up with ease of use and size. I have four of my Echo's set up in the multiroom audio, which makes it nice to listen to music throughout the house. Catch this on sale and it's a great deal.
