    Best in its class for voice-enabled devices

    Of all the voice-enabled devices out there, I think the Amazon Alexa enabled devices are the ones that are most likely to understand your voice commands. Sound quality is really good for such a small and inexpensive device. Alexa integrates entirely with your Amazon shopping account and will make recommendations when it thinks you are needing to reorder something and will keep you up to date on your order shipment status. Also, Alexa has some attitude and is downright funny at times. This Echo Dot like its big brother can integrate with Apple iTunes as well as Sirius XM. Just recently they can now make phone calls without evening having to pair with your phone, just so long as your wireless service is through AT&T.

    We got "Alexa" for a Christmas gift from our son. As older people - we were resistant to the technology and told our son we would never use it. He refused to return it and told us to use if for a month and if we still didn't like it he would take it back. We LOVE it!!!! Alexa can do so many things for you it's crazy. The most impressive thing is the quality of the speaker for about $30.00. We can listen to music, find out about the weather, set a time, control lights in the house and more. You should definitely get it!!!

    Already own 2 previous model of Echo. We purchased the second one for my mother-in-law. She loves it. We use them everyday for most anything i.e. weather report, music, an alarm, seek information, etc. It's almost like having a friend when you're alone in the home. You can carry on a conversation too. Purchased this one for our retirement home when we spend time there. There are other new features in this model.

    Got this for free with a purchase. I was not so interested in buying one, but once we set it up I became pretty reliant for it. I set it up near our entry area and kitchen. It is connected to our amazon, pandora, podcasts, and kasa wifi plugs. I absolutely love it and can't imagine my life without it. Everything from quick timers, reminders, kitchen measurements, to playing my music and podcasts-- literally everything. Very happy.

    I love everything about the Amazon Echo Dot 3rd. Gen. I have three of them in my home along with the Amazon Echo Studio. We use all of these Alexa products everyday in our home. The Gen 3 Echo Dot does a great job all by itself and it is all you need f you are on a budget and want to get started enjoying everything Alexa has to offer. It has a wonderful speaker so you will be surprised how much you enjoy how great the music sounds when you ask Alexa to play your favorite tunes.
