    Excellent device. I use it to control my smart bulbs to turn on/off lamps, ask it to play music and sound quality is very good, also use it to play my favorite radio station and answer questions. Great product.

    I have both Google Assistant and Alexa on various devices. Both are great. The Echo dots are great for my kids. They’re small and they love listening to music, playing games, and having Alexa tell knock knock jokes.

    I was really surprised at the volume quality. It’s a lot of sound from a small source. It pairs easily with all my other Alexa products. I’m so happy I got this for free with the purchase of my Echo 8. They sound great together.

    I have two 2nd generation echo dots and really love the new speaker and thus the excellent sound the 3rd generation dot produces. Obviously it’s not the same quality as the top end echo but it is very good. Great function and sound for the price.

    Alexa is very smart and a great assistant. She can play music, tell you the weather, and make a shopping list for you, and even remind you to do things. I’m also able to control all of my smart devices that are Alexa compatible.

    We got this in a package with another product - we have a Google Home as well. Both devices work well for basic tasks; the Google Home is better at answering informational questions, while the Echo supports more "skills." For example, the Echo will control our thermostat and work with our doorbell, while Google Home will not. The sound on the Echo Dot is surprisingly good. Overall, it works as advertised.

    We purchased during the holidays so we got at a great price. The sound is great and the size is very convenient. My family loves! Especially my 1yr old who is learning to talk. I ended up purchasing a second one.

    Love these echo dots! I have these in several rooms to be able to use Alexa. Helps automate my house, communicate like an intercom, use for music, and set timers for cooking.

    I was very surprised at how well this little thing projects sound. It's literally the size of a hockey puck, but can really do a great job at filling a room with music. Can understand your requests quite well, and very simple to setup and use.

    This is my second one of these. The best aspect of this generation compared to 2nd generation is the speaker. It is louder and clearer. The physical design also looks better with surrounding home decor. I"m pleased to own this.

    The echo dot 3rd generation was a wonderful Xmas gift that I have to all my kids. My kids absolutely love it because they can utilize the echo dot to play music, determine the weather and drop in on us and each other to have quick conversations. We also have a doorbell that is connected to Alexa and the echo dot will let everyone at the house know when someone is at the door. I am blown away how something so small and affordable can be so powerful. I have been able to utilize the echo to create a grocery list, start my car remotely and even display the blink front door camera on my television. This is a must have!

    More compact than the 4th generation "ball," but just as capable--especially if you're not relying on it for a music speaker where the highest fidelity and volume are required.

    At first I was skeptical, then I installed it, and started to use it. It plays music, games, trivia, also sets reminders for me, and I use it as an alarm sometimes. I have 2 more installed and it works great as an intercom system when needed.

    After having a 1st gen, this is a nice upgrade in looks! Also very easy to set up. My 6 year old loves asking Alexa math questions and to tell him jokes! I look forward to adding NEST thermostat that I can control with this!
