    Bought two of these. Took no time to set up and have enjoyed it ever since. Even found out that Alexa has a sense of humor and manners. Just say Alexa, thank you after you have asked her assistance. She responds!

    I really like the improvements over 1st & 2nd generation Echo Dots. The speaker is louder & understands my instructions more clearly. The 50% discount made it a no-brainer to buy extras.

    I enjoy the echo dots. I have them in my sons rooms and my room, I plan to purchase another for the downstairs to allow communication usage between the levels of the house. The echo has multiple uses such as listening to amazon music, alarm clock, intercom style contact between different echo dots in different rooms, and connecting to my phone with the app so that I can call someone on a better speaker, check the news, weather, sports - not to mention it is all hands free.

    I did not go out of my way to get this, but it came free with another purchase. It is a fun little device, and works well for what it was intended to do. That being said I feel like i need to go out of my way to use it.

    Love this little speaker. It has great sound for its size. I bought a protable charger on Amazon to use with it so I can move it around the house without having to deal with the cord.

    These have great sound quality. Have several set up around my moms house to help with light bulbs and Ring security system and such. She likes them. The Black Friday price is unbeatable.

    Purchased 3 of these to place in my guest bathroom and other bathrooms for ambient whole house sound. Since they are not turned up very loud they sound perfect for this application.

    I got it for my mom who had been wanting one for the longest time. I was debating whether to get the taller one or the dot, i ended up getting the dot and my mom was in love with it. She wanted it set up in spanish and it understands the commands very clear and so far we have no trouble with it. Everyone in the family was so in love with it, even my brother went out to get one of his own. The product does the same thing as the taller one for a cheaper price.

    We're enjoying being able to ask Alexa about the weather, turn on / off lights and even play games. Linking the dot to our account was easy, but pairing some 3rd party devices can be a challenge.

    As with even the older version, same commands, same responses. The updated version is much nicer looking and has some additional features. When combined with a hub, you have awesome controls of multiple devices and dots.
