    Works great with my stereo and other products, Spotify Amazon. Out of the box can be a little confusing connecting to Internet and then phone app. But once its passed that setup, everything starts to work great. Total setup time for basic user is probable 30-1 hour. Someone techy could probably do this in 15-30 min. YouTube maybe a good resource to find out how to setup as well. Will need a pigtail to connect to stereo to play though speakers.

    We got this free with a purchase of a Smart TV and are surprised how much we use it. It can answer almost any question we throw at it - like trivia, the weather, etc. When we would normally google something, we just ask Alexa instead. Plus having a timer, reminders, and notifications on Amazon orders is quite convenient, too.

    It started as me buying myself a gift of the Fire Stick with my income tax refund. However, the sales associate recommended the Echo Dot third generation as well. I figured, why not? This is by far the best electronic purchase I’ve made in the past 20 years! Amazon outdid themselves with this one, and I’m just happy Best Buy sells these products! Thank you Best Buy!

    I've owned multiple smart speakers in the past including the Google home mini and the previous versions of the dot. I can say for a fact that this third generation echo dot has definitely gotten better in terms of voice recognition and sound quality. With the first and second generation versions of this product, I had to tell to triiger the Alexa voice assistant when I was far from the speaker. However, now that is no longer the case.

    Great product for both the price and quality. I have multiple at home. I love how they can all be connect and communicate throughout the home. It still amazes me that sound sound comes out of something so small.

    Set up took much longer than expected, but it works well. Unfortunately, we don't have a smart phone, and the app doesn't work with MacBook Air, so we had to enlist the help of a friend....after we spent quite a bit of time online and on the phone trying to get help. Would prefer it had a clock face, but it has been very useful as a timer, to play a variety of musical genres, to be able to skip a song you just don't want to hear again, etc. We won't know the quality of it until we've had it much longer. The voice quality could certainly be improved to be sharper.
