    Great to have Alexa in a smaller device than the original echos. Easy network integration. Very convent for setting alarms, reminders, etc. The sound quality is good as well for music streaming.

    The Amazon echo dot is great, we have smart lights hooked up through it. You can ask Alexa funny questions, you can request music to play, you check on Amazon orders, check the weather, set timers, and so much more. A total must have!

    Absolutely love the convenience of weather, music, sports and podcasts with just the sound of my voice. It can even make a grocery list, and has so many other features that I'm waiting to explore. The sound quality is awesome.

    Been an Echo Dot user for a long time. Moved past the privacy concerns. Have upgraded all my units to Gen 3. Very noticable improvement in wifi reception, voice recognition and speaker fidelity. Gen 4 has been released. Gen 3's are a great bargain these days.

    I cant believe I lived without it, A great addition to smart home. Can link to other brands of smart home devises. Was concerned the sound would be sub-par because newer models advertise upgraded sound, but for its size the sound is better than I expected.

    We bought this Alexa for my Mother in Law. She is always looking to learn more about new technology. What better way than an Alexa. She can ask Alexa questions, turn on or off lights with just her voice, and even use it to control her TV via voice with a connected fire stick. Great gift for Maw Maw

    Amazon has figured out how to make setting this up and using it flawless. Easily got it to connect to wifi. It understands speech very well and can quickly get to things you cannot even name, only describe. We have not used smart home features, but see how easy it would be.

    This makes my life convenient! The ability to have “Alexa” turn on the lights, (with proper plugs) set a timer, just about anything! I can’t believe how much you use it until you have one!

    My daughter loves this thing! She said it brought her bedroom to life. The sound is really good when I’m working I have to ask her to turn in down. It is also very responsive and quick. It was easy to connect it to her Apple Music.
