    This is the third one I've bought, I appreciate being able to connect to the rest of my devices through my dots This one is in our sun room and being able to listen to music during the summer is nice and the sound quality really is good for such a small device.

    These things work really well for music in our leasing office! Sound quality is great and Alexa is very responsive and easily managed. I am sure we will end up buying a couple more for different spots around the building!

    I purchased this because I bought my mother for Christmas a firetv Cube with the built in Alexa. Since using the voice commands I had to get a dot to have in my house. I love the features and skills that can be added to make your dot more personal to you. Since having bought the dot, I did go ahead and purchased an echo plus and of course love it. The customization is pretty cool, I am an apple fan boy and all I can say is apple step up your game. I know Siri is intelligent but just the features on the software are pretty nice. Don’t hesitate.

    I like the ease to set up my new Echo Dot. Took no time and the flexibility of controlling Alexia is so smart and understandably sphophitacated.

    This unit came to me free. And I had no plan to buy one nor do I have/have I ever used a similar wireless speaker. Seems fine I live in a small 250 sq ft studio so it is a very good fit for my situation.

    I bought this Echo Dot for my wife. I have the exact same one and we love it, so now she has hers as well. Alexa works pretty darn good. Sound quality is so much better than the early models of the Dot. The clock is wonderful. It is set perfectly, as it doesn't light up our entire room. Some how Amazon has the digital clock where it is super easy to read, but yet doesn't seem like a night light. We both love the clock. It is a great touch. Alexa is much better now than it ever was a couple years ago. We really enjoy it. She even lights up when we have notifications, and tells us about our Amazon deliveries and such. If you are a person that is afraid of ease dropping, I would tell you not to buy one of these, as I am pretty sure they listen to everything. Every now and again, I will be talking about something, and I will open my email, and Amazon will be suggesting I purchase what I was just talking about. Hmmmmmmmmm. Not sure it is a coincidence. Happens often. My wife and I also have Amazon Prime Music. Hard to believe how good it sounds on the Echo Dot. Anyway, we enjoy the Echo Dot and yes, we recommend it. Fun and handy.

    The speaker is a great speaker for the price. The sound is not bad at all and i usually just take it around with me in the house. I will take this to the back yard for music or i will take it in the garage. It is very easy to carry around and plug in anywhere.

    I’m giving the Alexa Echo Dot for stars due to the easel set up in the neat features it has. It’s only drawbacks are that it may have a hard time with some accents sometimes but that will get better with future updates I’m sure.
