    Helps track my packages, tells me weather, sports updates and plays white noise to help me sleep. Setup is very easy and even connected to my home cameras.

    Alexa wakes me up every morning to my alarm clock never fails. It’s nice that even if there’s a power outage you don’t lose your alarms. With a plug-in clock it resets everything.

    Really like this echo dot 3, even more my kids, my personally downside is that with my accent, it doesn't understand me very well, also many of the questions don't have an answer it the answer is not what I wanted, also can't perform many functions, and got to specify things. But good overall, on many other stuff, like alarm, countdown, timer, connects to the Xbox, etc.

    Gave as a gift for Christmas and they loved it. You do need someone slightly tech friendly to get this set up. I personally set it up for my uncle and created him a pandora account so he could listen to music.

    I absolutely love my echo dot! It’s great to have a couple around the house. I also tried the smart plug and that’s a neat feature and I’m looking into getting the smart switch now and I’m good to go.

    If you are already in the Alexa universe - this is a must have for any room without a device - works well, and, if you can get it on sale like I did, then its an incredible bargain.

    I bought the older version for myself last year and bought this one for my mom because she liked mine so much. This model is a lot more appealing but just as awesome as my older one. A perfect gift for a great price!

    Echo Dot 3rd Gen is a great addition to my Amazon product collection. The sound is much better than the 2nd Gen. The kids love it. I gave a few as Christmas gifts. Everybody was surprised Alexa is so helpful and fun.

    Was on the fence about this until a colleague recommended it to me. I now have 3 and an echo plus. My family uses this every day. It is simple to set up and all the smart home features and gadgets are really cool
