Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Sound quality is way better than the Google Home mini. I was able to set up a lot of routines and had no idea that I would love Alexa so much. It is fun overall with the smart home stuff (easily configurable) which which I can turn on/off lights, heat, etc. Highly recommend.

The Echo Dot blends in easily and allows easy listening to music, quick answers to questions, easy setting of a kitchen timer, the uses are endless. Super simple to set up and good volume/clear sound.

Was skeptical at first but than found out what you can connect with alexa. Hooked up all our lights In house with WiFi switches. Easy connect for radio or music. Tell Alexa to purchase things from amazon. Make shopping list, adjust thermostat.

I got this Dot device as the centerpiece of my smart home setup, and as a first time user of these voice assistants, I was really impressed. It does all the things you'd expect -- answering questions, setting timers and reminders, giving you weather info, etc. But linked to a Prime account, it also plays music on demand, perfect for those times when you just want to hear that one song. As a hub, it easily linked my Emerson Sensi thermostat, wifi lightbulbs, Sonos beam, and Wyze cameras (though as it doesn't have a display, it's unable to show actual footage). The sound quality is surprisingly good -- it really does fill the room with sound, and even has the (light) thumping of a subwoofer. I would consider getting multiple for different rooms in the house, to use as an intercom system but also an all-over sound system.

Excellent little Smart Speaker. It came as a free item with the purchase of a RING product. Gave it to my son who keeps it on his desk in his bedroom. Very easy to use, quite handy, and decent sound for a small room. He is enjoying it!

My origanal Echo dots started to go bad.(I got a lot of use out of them). The 3rd generations were on sale. A little bit larger and a way better speaker. Great Christmas present also for those just starting to use the Alexa products

Without a doubt - it's quite an impressive creature. It's not pefect...but no tech is perfect... and I love tech. So... Amazon added whisper mode today. Experiencing that today - was one of those very special "wow" moments.... I called my friends to try out that new feature...and they all love it. It does much more than I expected. For quite a while I waited, as I thought "I have my iPhone and Siri...why do I need Alexa?" Well, I love my iPhone... and am still very happy I now have an echo dot. I don't have any complaints- just look forward to the continued advancements Amazon's Echo team is making with the device. The quality of the device is excellent - and the sound it puts out- for its size... really impressive. Sure.... But is it fun and convenient to have.... absolutely. Very glad I finally got one!

I’ve purchased many of these and they have all worked great. So easy to use!

Great for kids room so they can listen to music and they love the jokes. It works as an alarm and kids love asking it questions. Some of which she has no answers.

Received this as a Christmas present. Put it in my bedroom. I use it as an alarm, to listen to music, to get the weather etc... for such a small item it has an excellent speaker in it. This is an expensive item but you get a lot of bang for your buck!!!! Worth every penny.

I got this free one Christmas when I ordered two Echo Show devices. I got two free and I put one at my bedside and one in the bathroom. I listen to TuneIn radio when I get up. It picks up a local live radio station. I enjoy hearing the weather. It flashes yellow when an Amazon order is coming in too. It flashes yellow and warns me about bad weather coming up. We can make announcements all over the house using the iPhone or iPad. You speak into the Alexa app in communications and it will announce what you say immediately. It sends a transcript of your announcement to your phone app too. Sometimes the transcript is wrong and it’s funny itself what it says you spoke! One day I was sitting on the front porch and I announced using Alexa that there was a double rainbow outside after a rain shower. Everyone came outside to look. It is so handy!

Just hooked up this bad boy to my network and am enjoying listening to music or turning off my fan, tv or lights with voice control. I just picked up a second one during black Friday and can ask Alex conversion amounts in the kitchen.

We had an Alexa tower and recently purchased a Dot. We put the Dot in our bedroom. The size of it fits perfectly on our nightstand. We use it to turn on the bedside lamp as well as for checking the time and weather. And also use it to listen to music. It is very easy to use.

I didn't think I'd like these things, but I was wrong. Got 3 of them for my house, they all work together, play music, answer questions, and I'm sure they do much more than I've even figured out how to do, it'll control my Nest, my harmony remote, my ring cameras. It's amazing!

I absolutely adore this product. At night I ask Alexa to play Ocean Sounds and now I can’t sleep without it. I’m not sure if you’re worried that it won’t be loud enough because she goes pretty loud and she knows a chain of commands

I have 5 of these located in various rooms throughout the house. Using Alexa compatible outlets it’s no hands for turning on / off lamps. These Echo Dots perform flawlessly. Great when you just want to play music, get the forecast, ask for information, or just have some fun.

Amazon redesigned this from last year's model it's bigger, has more mics, and much improved sound. I did not like the fabric design nor the properitary power cord. For $50 this is a good voice assistant for a small room (bedroom, kitchen, bathrom). With Black Friday and Christmas sales coming soon pick up a couple as stocking stuffers, everyone would like getting one.

Easy setup and simple use. I like that Alexa needs few words to understand commands. Not once have I been told “sorry I don’t know how to help with that” as other assistants have problems. Good speaker and sound for its size and price!

Great addition to your home when you need something turns off but don’t wanna or can’t go over to turn it off. Also love the fact that Alexa whispers back if you whisper

I love having Echo Dot in my kitchen. Its that simple. Its the perfect piece for a room where other items might not work and takes up VERY little space. Plus, Alexa is funny, you can ask her so much and she comes up with some hysterical answers.
