    I like how it is easy to set up. You just follow the steps. Its has a pretty good speaker as well. Loud enough for us indoors. My kids and I dance around all the time! Fun to use. Bought and extra two for the parents!

    Prefer these then all the “new bigger “ Alexa’s their making. I tried the small screen one and the tall bigger one and medium sized one, and I solely use them for Music and these small echo dots have the best sounding about of them All!! I paid over $100 for the bigger one and $50-60 for the medium oval one and tossed them away and replaced them with these echo dots.. got 2 on half off during dec 2022 but now I need 1 more so that will be 4 total in my small home lol..

    Once upon a time a life without Echo

    Before we had this thing we just didn't really care about these fancy smart home devices thingies. Now we can't imagine our daily little tasks without Echo's help. She controls the house's temperature ( obviously, after we tell her to do so); she takes notes, setup timer, makes phone calls, search random stuff in the internet etc. The best part is: She is the only one in the house that listens to me. Cons: If you have more than one Alexa enabled device in the house, you will have to give them different names, and I think there are only four or five names that you use to call them. So let's say you have an Alexa enabled thermostat and and Amazon Echo dot nearby and they are both called Alexa. It happens that every time you call Alexa, both your thermostat and Echo will respond and operate at the same time.

    Love how I can connect to this little gadget when I’m not home, near home or even in the same state as home. Great intercom for the house. Integrated perfectly with my ring system and very informative. Can’t wait to get 2 more.

    I decided to purchase a 3rd Gen Echo Dot for my office. I enjoy using the Echo Dot as it doesn't take up much space and is informative when I need something, i.e. play music, turn off the lights, etc. The newer generation dot is great!

    I don't care of the NSA spies on me with it. I have nothing to hide. Comes in hand and has a ton of commands. Kids love playing music and telling jokes. I can't wait until Samuel L. Jackson voice replaces Alexa's voice.

    small and able to be kept anywhere on your desk. great in that it gives a boost to your sound when watching a movie or playing any game. Just bought it about 4 weeks ago but should have purchased it sooner.
