    I got this with my Ring doorbell. I love being able to set reminders for my son so that he leaves for the bus on time. I also really like that I can drop in and talk to my son when he is home and I am still at work. The sound quality is great. It is able to recognize both mine and my son's voice. I enjoy using it and plan to buy more products that I can connect to the echo with.

    My second Amazon Alexa device. So useful and easy to setup! Alexa is absolutely amazing and such a time saver. She can also listen for sounds like a baby or puppy crying which was beyond helpful. All of my other devices paired perfectly with her and the app works great!

    I love this device. This makes life much easier for me and my wife. Especially my wife. I have smart switches all over my house and this device controls them all by just saying Alexa turn on/off lights. I will have it controlling my smart lock and smart sprinkler system after I install them.

    For a small echo it does a great job! I would love more bass but that’s okay I’m very satisfied. The over sound is great and it can be very loud :)

    I mostly use the echo dot for an alarm, to ask her the time and weather, and to play music. We also have a plug/outlet that’s controlled by it, which is nice. We use that to operate a light that’s in a corner behind the couch that’s hard to reach. “Alexa, turn on the corner light.” I know there are other functions I’m not using but I’m very happy with the ones I am. Good sound quality.

    Received this as a gift with a television purchase and love it. It was a big hit during the holidays when I used it as a speaker for music playlists. It also connects to endless info and is a nice research assistant that you don’t have to pay.

    I got this free with the purchase of a Blink XT camera - and I was ready to dismiss it since I have a house full of Echo Dot v2 devices. However, i set this bad boy up and was pleasantly surprised at the higher quality audio it puts out. The device is also about 15% larger than a v1 or v2 Dot, and it uses a different power dongle (a larger wall-wart, non-USB...similar to the type for the Spot).

    I love my echo dot. I have one in almost every room I my house. It pairs well with my devices and Alexa can do a lot of things in this tiny device. I love using it in the kitchen. I use it for setting timers, looking up questions and for recipes. I would recommend if you need a smart home device because the echo dot is perfect for my needs.

    What can you say? Echo dots are so useful. I can play my music, listen to Sirius, check the weather, and a thousand other tasks. Best of all, this item was free with a tv purchase. These are simple, well made devices that one can customize with whatever floats your boat. I have a few of them around the house now.

    I have to say that "Alexa" is better at recognizing than "Hey, Google Home". However, there is not much that it can do than google home. The device looks nice in the living room and is fun to play songs and stuffs using it. We have connected few smart things (plugs, bulbs and TV) but we normally use google home mini than this one. When google mini does not hear us then Alexa works like a charm.
