    I received my Echo Dot 3 as a gift when I purchased my 2nd Ring Doorbell 2. I have enjoyed it, especially when I get up in the mornings and want to know the current temperature in Franklin, TN. I also enjoy having it play my selected music. I am planning on purchasing some connectors to use for turning on some of the lights in my house.

    So happy with my new roommate Alexa! Love to hear my music and listen to the news! Voice control is amazing, can skip songs and make volume lower or higher among other things. It is beautiful and the size is perfect! Great addition to my space!

    I love this unit. You can talk to it and ask it to do anything like set a timer for 5 minutes or turn on dog light or turn on plant light, or turn on front porch light and also tell it to turn off all of these items. We have 3 of these units through out the house and each of them works just as easily as the next.

    Love my Alexa and the ease of use. I tell her to add something to my shopping list and it's done. No more lists left at home and trying to remember what was on the list while in the store. I tell her to add something to my calendar and it's there. Love my lightbulb that I received free with my purchase.

    I was using a Echo Dot (2nd Gen) before using this. This is a little bulkier and does not just look beefier, does have a more power speaker. However I do feel that I Echo Dot's reception was somehow was better. For example, I was used to call out command / question from another room to the old Echo dot (2nd Gen) and it will almost always respond. This Echo dot (3rd gen), it a hit or miss. I am using both, and overall likes this a little better than the 2nd gen. Though I would not have paid to upgrade from 2nd gen to 3rd gen.

    You know what you’re getting if you’re looking at this product. This iteration provides a better aesthetic than previous versions. The sound quality seems to be improved as well (although that may just be the placebo effect kicking in).

    It's an echo dot. Decent quality speaker. Have had issues with all of my echo dots lagging or being unresponsive over the last six months. Takes them forever to do something I ask. Also they don't do so well with some skills. They work great with Ring systems but if you have Vivint, not so much.

    A decent sound out of speaker this size. Where this shines is the ability to be tucked out of sight and still hear when it's called to do its work.

    We have several Alexa Devices with screens, but having the dot is convenient as well. It’s small so it stays out-of-the-way, and there are just some places where you don’t want to have a screen (or camera). It also helps if you use Alexa to play music throughout the house, this is a quick and easy way to add additional listening points. Nice new look as well.

    Received this for the holiday's and was apprehensive at first. However, as time as gone on I have come to really enjoy it. I can ask simple questions about many subjects for general info, but for me the best part is that if you can sync to a bluetooth sound device (or using it's sad little speaker) and listen to any radio station anywhere by just telling it. One can also listen to Amazon music, but I find that I can access a lot more choices by going online with a device or computer. I do recommend the Echo Dot and would maybe get the Echo model with the better speakers.
