    We have had the Echo Dot for a year in December. It allows our son to check the weather in the morning and dress accordingly. He also uses it as a alarm to wake up. I would highly recommend this product.

    I am just learning how to use the echo dot. It is probably smarter then I am. It makes shopping lists and when I ask it prints them out on my printer. I am enjoying it. So far so good.

    This is an outstanding tool that we use in our bedroom. We can get any information at any time of the day. This also gives us any weather updates or works as an alarm using music! We love it.

    I was not sure how I would like this, but I love it. The grandkids can play their type of music and then I can play mine without having to buy a bunch of CDs. The quality of the sound is superior.

    We only buy our electronics from BB due to the value and price. You can save a few dollars and get last years model at another store. Then when you have an issue you have to deal with someone who knows nothing. At BB the staff are alway willing to go above and bey to help. The staff help alone is worth what couple dollars you may save. BB always for all our electronics

    The Amazon Echo is awesome! My 2 year old daughter uses it for bed time and she knows how to tell it to play "baby shark" lol! We have also programmed our Echo to turn lights and alarm on and off. Would recommend!

    Love the more robust look of this version of the Echo Dot but somehow the voice sounds clearer on my older version. Music sounds really good through it though.

    I love my Echo. Simple and easy to use....and handy for quick answers to questions you would otherwise have to look up. For fun..ask to play songs, tell jokes, and report on the weather.

    Since we bought Alexa life became so much easier in the house. Switching light on and off, asking about the weather, news or just every day trivia. We also enjoy playing games like Jeopardy with it.

    My new adventure in the digital home.

    I purchased two Echo Dots when they were on sale, one for the main floor and another for the basement. Installation was exceedingly simple. Sound is better than I might have expected. In my small house Alexa can even hear me in the next room. Her hearing may almost be too good. After adding Echo Flex in the kitchen, I' m never sure which is going to answer me. Alexa and I are learning together. Mostly we get along.
