    Im not going to lie here, I bought this, and I barely use it. I use it as a glorified speaker for Spotify. The sound quality is good but there's very little bass. Alex understands me most of the time, but with every smart device it has its moments where it doesn't understand properly. I do take advantage of the skills when I remember though, those tend to be useful. The price I got it at was great, the normal price isn't worth it though. I don't think I would recommend this until its on sale again and even then there might be something better to spend your money on.

    This little speaker is truly of great value. I love the voice command I just say “hey Alexa” and it listens. It is quick to respond and start playing your requested music or answer your questions. I have mine synchronized to two other Alexa speakers so when I play music it plays throughout the house. The sound quality is excellent. I would recommend this for any household and it makes a great inexpensive gift!

    This pod got included with another purchase for free, I’ve got a braket that it helps hiding the cord and it hangs the pod on the wall attached to the outlet (which should be an item offer by manufacturer) it helps on managing the pod. Sound is good but I believe it should have been also designed to give more flexibility to equalize sound and voice since the pitch on it is very low, sometimes I can’t hear clearly when I ask for the weather report.

    Just bought a new home in South Carolina. Purchased two of these to cover the new house. Setup was easy as I already have an Alexa setup at my phone in NY. The best part, using the “Alexa - Drop-In” feature, I can drop in and talk to my wife and dogs In NY, without picking up the phone.

    I give this item five stars , first because it was cheap when getting it and it’s honestly a good product even though I haven’t really figured out or tried all the features it can have . But yea recommend it came the next day and it was handled with care . This product came with a free wifi light bulb which I seen the price it $14 something dollars but I got it for free so I definitely recommend this Alexa , check it out

    So I got a total of four Dots. One is in the Living Room, master bed, daughters room and gave one to a relative. They do work well and you have to be careful not to say Alexa or she'll respond. lol They do disconnect from the wifi and we had to add them back on. I do believe its our wifi that's the issue, not the Dot. The alarm is louder than my cell alarm so it wakes me. I can set it to an alarm, but I choose to wake up to a favorite song. She can also tell you reminders. So far so good.

    Amazon's 3rd gen echo dot is a terrific tool if your home is equipped with an array of Alexa supported devices. Practical device for so many different applications. Mundane daily questions such as what's the weather for today, set timer for xx minutes (great for cooking), play my playlist, and endless other trivial knowledge you would want to know.
