    Ok I like music, but the hassle of pairing my phone to the nearest Bluetooth speaker while I’m folding laundry or clearing dishes takes an extra hand. This little beast was a snap to hook up, and all I have to do is ask Alexa to play Hootie and the Blowfish, or what does the weather look like today or even play my audible books, no hands required. I can rock out, listen to The NY Times, check the weather, on the go with no hands required. I’m in love hearing my tunes with no effort.

    I got one for my daughter but everyone loved this cool smart speaker that I ended up buying one for the whole family including myself. Just use simple word commands and you can listen to music, turn off your smart light bulbs and even program the alarm to go off. Also it was on sale at a really good price. Everyone is enjoying it.!

    This item came free with my tv purchase and seems easier to use than Google. I feel the echo is compatible with more products than the Google.

    Considering google mini

    So I have two google mini and an echo dot. I think the microphone sensitivity and responsiveness of the dot is much better. Google, even on the highest sensitivity setting often takes saying things twice. I like saying alexa over ok google or hey google too, its faster. The sound quality is pretty comparable. I do like the dot light right as well. The build feels nice. I have noticed that some commands alexa struggles wtih. The harmony remote service works great with google, but not with alexa. Also, alexa struggles with opening garage commands. Alexa is faster on turning on lights and switches. So its a toss-up. I do like the amazon integration and the setup was faster in the amazon app. I do like the alexa app better than google. So there is no wrong answer and really not a clear winner. They both have their benefits.

    I didn't realize how helpful echo/Alexa would be specially now that I have my father living with me and keeping on eye (so to speak) on him. It's very clear and loud unlike other speakers, it's the perfect size and weight.

    I replaced a second gen Echo dot. I couldn't be happier. The third generation sounds much better and was easier to set up.

    Echo Dot (3rd Gen)

    I've got 4 of the 2nd Gen Echo Dots in my house, and this one blows them away. I bought two of these because of another review I watched that showed much better sound on these. It's true, these sound MUCH better than the previous generation... almost as good as the current Echo. I use one of the new ones in the garage, where I spend a lot of my time at home, and listening to Amazon Music is fantastic because I don't have to connect it to an external speaker as I did with the 2nd Gen. Setup was a breeze and it was working within a minute of plugging it in.

    Got the new Amazon Dot with a bundle deal and impressed at the sound quality. I have the older Dot and this one is a nice improvement. Easy setup too!

    First of all it is easy to set up. Plug it in, go to the Alexa app and follow a couple of instructions. It has excellent sound for such a small package.
