    Super handy I ask Alexa the time when I wake up rather than searching for my phone now. It has a great speaker and works really well I have no complaints.

    Bought this gift for my sister and so far, so good. I was able to test the sound and quite a few of its capabilities and I'm pretty impressed. Bought my dad one a week later. He's getting into all the techie stuff now.

    Surprisingly easy to set up and use. We use it mostly for playing music while in the kitchen, but it was easy to connect smart electrical plugs. Get the Samuel L Jackson voice!

    Love this little guy. May be slightly difficult to set up, if you're not familiar with the Alexa app. Sounds great. Love the idea of connection multiple size Echo speakers. Wish it had a battery. Think they are available as a secondary purchase. If it did, I'd give 5 stars.

    Fun with Alexa. Didn’t think I was going to have as much entertainment with Alexa. I get my news, weather and best of all a joke every day. Real simple to set up and one of the other things I like the most about it is being able to play just about any music that I wish. It was definitely worth it. I would encourage anybody to give it a try.

    Had this for about a month now so I feel like I can give an honest review. Like most people say it puts out good sound. I have found myself using it for white noise at night (rainfall, rain forrest noise). I use it for local info weather for cast temperature. It works well withoit having to repeat myself. I use it to set timers and reminders, that's about it all by itself. Now if you have Alexa devices like I use ecobee thermostat and it's great turning it up or down when I'm downstairs without having to actually go to the thermostat. My next purchase will be a Phillips HUE hub to control the lights. I will say I have both Google and Alexa and I find myself perffering to say Alexa rather than hey Google. Seems more of an assistant saying Alexa

    Great product, easy to use. Speaker is much better than what you might expect for something so small, not to mention you can connect third party speakers if you desire. Ended up purchasing another one for another room.

    All of the Amazon Alexa products have worked wonderfully. I was skeptical about the DOT, however the speaker is actually much better than I expected. Happy with this as a bedside speaker and alarm.

    We gave our son this Dot for his room. It is great -- he uses it for an alarm, to play music and for Alexa to help him with homework. I like to ring his room from downstairs - works like an intercom system with ours.
