Customer Ratings & Reviews

Google home has a top facing Sound vent, while this has sidewards. I actually use this as a speaker most of the time to play songs. I used to mount Google Home on a wall next to the socket and it gives good sound, while Echo spreads sound along the plane of the wall. So this has to be placed on a horizontal surface for max sound output. Apart from that, it works good.

The setup was a bit tedious through the app and it's not as loud as I hoped, but it is PERFECT for a little Alexa on your nightstand. Great for alarms, listening to books in bed, etc. I got it for $25, you can't beat it!

This is great for those who are not tech savy: get two or more and pair with the echo show and you can have music in two or more rooms without a lot of wiring. The sound is very good for me and for those enjoy a bit more bite to their music ( bass etc) you can pair with a bluetooth speaker or your home entertainment center. I would reccommend to a friend.

I listen to the radio in my office at work. I got this because it was on sale and I have a 2nd generation Echo Dot at home. I love it. I set reminders in the morning so I stay on schedule. It’s so easy to change what I’m listening to.

We love these and have one placed in almost every room. We can all select the music of our choice AND frequently, use the dot as an intercom sending msgs. to one another without shouting through the house

I got this at a great price during the recent Black Friday sale. This is now my 3rd echo dot which I placed at the kitchen. Setting up was easy and syncing with the other smart home devices around the house was seamless too. The only drawback with Alexa is the ability to link up with different Spotify accounts (it can only be linked to one) and because of this limitation, you can only play music from one Spotify account at any single point in time. For example, if my wife plays music from the echo dot in the kitchen via Spotify, I cannot play music from Spotify on another echo at a different part of the house. I also cannot play Spotify from my phone without terminating the earlier playback since Spotify only allows you to play at a single source at any given point in time. If Alexa can allow multiple Spotify accounts (which many of us do with the family plan), this will be a 5 star rating!

Love it!!!! Love it!!! Music quality is great, plays all my Amazon music, gives date , time, weather, spiritual quotes and tells you when you will receive your Amazon packages. Going to buy more!!!

Works well! No complaints. Does everything you need with alexa

We have several Dots, two Fire cubes, a Show and a Stick. They all work pretty well most of the time but they do glitch sometimes. However, we do have one "idiot dot" as we call it. That one has issues finding some of our WEMO devices. It will control most of them, but for some reason it can't find certain WEMOs, even though all the other fire devices can.

Bought for mt mothers home. Wanted to help make her home a smart home. She can turn on and off several lights in her home using ALEXA compatible light switches and her Echo devices.

My wife and I use this for storing notes and reminders. It controls my entertainment center. It sets timers for us while preparing meals. Its really handy to have one device that can do so many things and all from your voice commands.

I love the echo. Does what it's suppose to and convenient. Audio sounds good too.it was free so there are no complaints about it especially when it was free. Everything is better when it's free!

Shipping took a while but was a free product with TV purchase. Works great and has amazing sound quality for such a little device

I use this in a spare bedroom. I have some type of alexa device in every room. Its great for the automation and it's a whole house music system. Great for cleaning house and it will tell me if someone comes to the door.

Bought it to compliment an echo show. Using in the bathroom to play pandora and Xm radio. Price was right. Like both very much. As an aside, I also have the google product and find it much more limited. Lacks a lot of features.

Good product. I have 2 echo dots and received this for free after a purchase. Like having all the dots in separate rooms for music or just listening to news or weather.

Amazon - Echo Dot (3rd Gen) - Smart Speaker with Alexa - Charcoal works really well

What an innovative item! Makes my life much easier... From weather reports, music to get dressed for work, my ALEXA is amazing!

The Alexa Echo is a great speaker! I play music on it all of the time and have no complaints. Also love that Alexa does about a million other things like trivia games which my whole family loves!

Love the echo dots wasn’t sure if I wanted to buy this because of all the privacy concerns with amazon product but took a chance on it and it works as it should good sound very easy to connect
