Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great sound and easy setup. Works as well as Gen 2 but looks better (not like a hockey puck, lol) and sounds better. Get one.

Gifted this to a older friend who has a strong accent. I was quite surprised that Alexa was able to comprehend his voice instructions so easily. The Echo is almost a "companion" for seniors, especially those living alone. They add in to their routine. He texts and emails to family and uses this to assist with spelling.

Had a gen 2 for years and the speaker finally started to go and wanted one that was clear and it is and does what it is supposed to do tho music wise the bass is more than gen 2 tho not as much as preferred

Love it! We have a lot of fun! Lots of jokes, good with music. I will not lie, my technology skills aren’t the best though, which can make understanding what she can do a little difficult. Alexa app could also be clearer. It can be difficult to understand

Small and compact. Easy to plug and use. No problems with it so far but I think it listens to every thing I say.

Nice sound quality especially if you are listening to music. Easy to maintain and works well with the plugin.

There is a lot that Alexa can do, I bought smart plugs and connected them through the house on all my regular devices as the plugs are really cheap lol, and connected them to Alexa and now I am as lazy as comfortable enjoying a smart home, Alexa turn off the coffee maker

Like using this for music when I’m working out at home:and it tells jokes.

There are SO MANY things you can do with this speaker! I planned on just using for streaming music (great sound) but have: ordered groceries, connected to smart home products, used for research, and more!

I use my Alexa almost everyday! I love that it’s so easy to turn on and off appliances when I’m doing other things around the house. Only bad thing is if you know someone named “Alexa” it hears it all LOL. But just turn off the listening and you’re all set.

Great device, much improved over the prior generations. Better design and speaker. Function is the same compared to earlier generations.

We are enjoying our echo, the sound is great, and my husband loves the fact that he can play his jazz music and I'm glad cause I can request my smooth R&B without commercials. We add a smart plug and now we don't have to argue over who will turn the lights out when we both are comfortable while watching a movie. :)

Lots of fun beyond the music. Games, alarms, reminders, Echo Dot does it all. Weekly emails keep you posted about different things to try with it. And the music is absolutely tops! Just ask it to play whatever you like and you’re instantly rewarded with good sound.

I love my dot! I got it with a deal thanks to bestbuy! I have one prior to this one and my kids also love it. My 3 year old is always asking it to play baby shark. I have a 2 year old niece, when she visits remembers that I have one, and always asking it to play a song. Will be purchasing her one soon.

The sound quality is MUCH better than I expected from such a small device. The Alexa voice recognition/interaction works pretty well, too. We had the Google Home device before, and it was so bad we just returned it. Only reason we got this one was because it came included with a larger purchase. Definitely recommend.

This is the 2nd Alexa I've gotten. These things have so much uses. I can even use it to ask whoever's in the kitchen, if we need anything else while I'm at the grocery store. We use it to stream amazon music, as a bluetooth speaker, a phone, audiobook, and to hear the news.

I love being able to ask questions about anything or add items to lists without having to press any buttons. The speaker works really well and love playing musing through this while I’m cooking or just hanging out in the living room with just telling it what kind of music I want to hear.

I love the echo dot.. it connects to devices very easily.. love that it connects to my phone when I listen to music around the house

These things are great. Surprisingly good sound quality. So much more convenient than using a portable bluetooth speaker that requires device syncing and battery charging to listen to music. This thing is always plugged in and all you have to do is ask Alexa to play a song.

Very responsive and the speaker is super crisp especially when using it just for music! I’m definitely gonna buy more for my other family members!
